Deep Fear

Deep Fear (1998)

by Sega CS2 R&D, System Sacom, Sega
Genres:Adventure
Themes:Action, Horror
Story:All contact is lost with a submarine on a routine mission which then crashes into an underwater facility. The occupants of the underwater facility are ordered to board the submarine and find out what went wrong. On board the vessel, strange things are happening which are taking control of the crew. The crew are mutating due to an alien parasite and members of the search team have to figure out what is happening and how to stop it! The game is played via a third person view which is just behind the character and you look over his shoulder. The game is based underwater in a submarine so the developers have added a claustrophobic feeling by giving some areas a limited amount of air so you have to run through to activate the air circulation system. Controls are your typical Resident Evil style which is you pull the Right shoulder button to draw your gun, your d-pad to aim and then a button to shoot. Along your journey of the submarine, you will need to find objects such as keycards to unlock doors and better weapons.Show more

I actually played this on Saturn and, while it has some ugly cutscenes and GOD AWFUL voice acting (one character is SUPER gay for no reason beyond he's the designer of the Big Top), I actually loved this. It's one of the only games where you can aim and run, it's got a good story, some of the deaths are genuinely shocking because, holy hell, it's like if they killed off Sherry in RE2, it's just such a complete change from how we normally view NPCs in horror (those who die and those who obviously won't). But I liked this. Genuinely, for all the stupid voice acting and CGI, I genuinely, unironically, loved this game to the point I can still remember all of it. It never really got a grand entrance into the gaming world and faded away instantly (apparently spiritually lived on by the equally as forgotten PS2 game Extermination), but it's a great game and I really, really wish more people got to experience both the good and bad of it.

This is a rare classical survival horror from the Sega Saturn, with pre-rendered backgrounds and fixed camera angles. I vowed to play each of those games, and began to run it with an emulator. Unfortunately, Saturn emulation is still very tricky to this day, and unless you find a Saturn console, it's become rather impossible to play this game under good conditions.

Please, Don't Touch Anything
Please, Don't Touch AnythingPlease, Don’t Touch Anything is a cryptic, brain-racking button-pushing simulation. Covering for a colleague who is taking a bathroom break, you find yourself in front of a mysterious panel which only component is a red button. And since you’ve clearly been instructed not to touch anything, the only thing you want to do now is push that damn button. Push it and expect to be held liable for any unintended aftermath. And there will be many.
