Why aren't there any of these?  With games being so simplified and dumbed down to cater to the lowest common denominator these days, you'd think a game about hot young stupid people getting naked/chased and killed by a violent lunatic would be pretty popular.  It could actually be a really deep and interesting game as well if it were non-linear and all about either surviving, or stealthily hunting down the victims.

Here's a much better thread about this subject on RPGCodex because I'm too lazy to write all my ideas again.

There's Clock Tower.

[Ioric Kittencuddler]

Clock Tower?

[Mephisto]

How about Night Trap? It's an old Sega CD game where you play as a SCAT (Sega Control Attack Team, for those with dirty minds) member Who has to protect five scantily-clad coeds. May not be what you had in mind. I must say that I never actually played it. It seems to be more of an interactive FMV, anyway.

Yeah, Night Trap was pretty terrible.

Go with the first Clock Tower for PSX. There's always good ol' Friday the 13th for NES. You have to run around an open camp and save children and can play as any counselor on the map... as long as they survive that is.

[McDoomhammer]

Clock Tower is also an old series of games, nove of which I have actually had direct experience.

I just played that Bloody Landlord game.  It's terrible, don't bother.

[Ioric Kittencuddler]

Yeah, I heard the F13 game sucks monkey balls.  I agree Bloody landlord is terrible too.  Clock Tower isn't quite what I had in mind either.  I was actually thinking of something with similarities to Dwarf Fortress in that you could generate a killer and victims or something, and maybe randomly generate levels.  You'd have an open area to wander and as a victim you'd have to do victimy stuff like party and make out until the killer appeared, then you'd have to try to survive and save your friends.  As the killer you'd have to sneak around and terrorize the victims, increasing their fear, and eventually killing them off.  Or you could kill them off quickly, but that wouldn't be as fun.

Take a look at that link if you want to know what I mean.

I know what you meant, but Clock Tower has a psychotic hunchback murdering people with autopsy scissors...

[Okenido]

Depends on which Clock Tower you speak of.
Two of them don't feature being killed by scissors...

I hoping that I would find a game where you play the role of the "villain" in here... <_<

I'll update this if I think of the name, but there was an old psx game where you were like, this guy living in a mansion who had to kill the treasure hunters who were breaking into it.  You set up traps around the mansion, like falling chandlers and spike pits, and I'm pretty sure it was made by Namco.

I don't really like the SNES game but I don't know of any game but those two that are called Clock Tower and I thought they BOTH had to do with scissor murder.

Clock Tower II for PSX doesn't, but that game is really weird.

III is just... bad. But has cool cut scenes. And two katana-scissor people.

[Sergius]

There was an old Friday the 13th game for the C64, there was a bunch of teenagers, and you selected one to play and one of the others would randomly be the killer. There was many rooms and he would murder the kids one by one, you had to like, discover who he was (by watching him try to kill somebody, he would revert to his "undisguised" form when doing so) and kill him with a variety of improvised weapons - the same arsenal he would use to murder his victims.

I think you scored higher the less teens got murdered or something.

Kagero: Deception II

Technically the heroine is a good guy though.

[Ioric Kittencuddler]

Is that really like a slasher movie or is it like Trapt for the PS2 where you just have a small room to run around and you trigger traps to kill people who are chasing you?

Ok, after a quick google search I see that it actually is Trapt.  Thought Trapt was the sequel to it.  Anyway, that's nothing like a slasher film.  You play a princess who sets up traps to kill people who are chasing you.
