Had Potential I remember playing this game back in the day. Picked it up in a discount bin at Electronics Botique (EB). Despite it's numerous shortcomings I felt this game did bring to the table a good sense of atmosphere. The minimalist music (sort of a Tell Tale Heart kind of rhythmic thumping) added to this spookiness of it. I could almost imagine that, if done with some production value, would have ended up something like a Diablo. The graphics, while not great aren't its greatest flaw. The clunky game controls are up there and even more so the cryptic puzzle and gameplay non-sequiturs. All this aside I think as a whole this game better conveys the mood of the movies than say the NES version, which while more polished, was kind of cheesy in its own right. |

You really should tell me how to get to the Crucifix at level 6, I could never reach that location so far, no matter what I did. Is there a way to enter the area with the two exits at level 7? There is also an item at that enclosed area, and I couldn't find a way how to get there. |

OK, I've managed to win with Freddy in this game  But I couldn't solve the problem with getting to the diamond area (described above). Fortunately, I saved a file in which I had got there somehow without the lantern :P I just couldn't repeat it when I tried to come through the level one more time (I wanted to do it because I had no money in level 8 for buying keys... as it was impossible for me to start from the beginning and get to the diamond area in 7, I had to hunt for ghosts and the others to earn some money for keys )Fighting Freddy in the last level took me three trials - not bad, isn't it? The game is very good! And I played with Nancy.

Hi all, I really like playing this game from time to time but there is something frustrating about it: how can one deal with bringing all the necessary items from one level to another? I often get stucked in the 7th or 8th level because of lack of holy water or keys... My farthest achievement has been the 8th level where I got stuck lacking keys. I restarted the game from the very beginning, wishing to bring the needed keys and/or money there. But I forgot how to get to the ladder in the 7th level! The way to the diamond-shaped area is closed although I try moving every lever and checking the map all the time  The always-helpful 'Walkthrough' also can't help in this case. Where is the teleport? What should be done to get access to the room with the ladder (this is the one when you should leave 4 vials of holy water). I have to tell you that it is possible to complete this level without a lantern - I've done it some time ago because I didn't realise that I should have a lantern  Moving in darkness was so funny! Have you tried it? he heBest wishes to all who like this game and the movies
