Some people might not think this is a "Good" game, but i love it. As a die hard fan of the movies I got this on Dreamcast and played the heck out of it to the point where I could speedrun it time and time again. It is a great example of survival horror of the time and is just a fun and funny game overall....if you like the movies of course.

Amazing game! I have the record the the pc version of this game over on speedrun! I've literally been playing this game from day one of its release, I absolutely love it!
The game is very entertaining and crazy xd but the problems that I had were tank controls, colition parts and some camera angles. But in general the is very fun and make me feel that I was playing a kind of Resident Evil game
I love Evil Dead and never knew there was a game until I went to London with some friends and found it in a shop. It was amazing and stays very close to all three films. I’d buy it in a heartbeat. Haven’t played it in years.

Dungeon Master II: The Legend of Skullkeep
Dungeon Master II: The Legend of SkullkeepDungeon Master established several new standards for role playing and computer games in general. Dungeon Master was a realtime game instead of the traditional turn-based approach that was prevalent until then. Instead of using text-based commands to interact with the environment, players directly manipulated objects and the environment by clicking the mouse in the enlarged first-person view. Abstract Dungeons and Dragons style experience points and levels were eschewed in favor of a system where the characters' skills were improved directly via using them. It also introduced some novel control methods including the spell casting system, which involved learning sequences of runes which represented the form and function of a spell's effect. For example, a fireball spell was created by mixing the fire symbol with the wing symbol. This kind of attention to detail and focus on the user interface was typical of the game and helped create an often captivating sense of craft and ingenuity. Other factors in immersiveness were the then-revolutionary use of sound effects to indicate when a creature was nearby, and (primitive) dynamic lighting.
