Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein

Released1994
Based of the 1994 movie remake of Frankenstein, the player is the artificial man created by Victor Frankenstein. After Victor rejects his creation due to its hideous appearance, the creation flees from Victor and swears revenge on him. The player goes through a number of levels, battling anything that attacks with a wooden stick. It's possible to set the tip of the stick on fire, by swinging it at the fire torches located on the walls. The player can also use a special attack: a blue ball coming out of the hands of the creation, which takes some of the player's life away. There are also some simple puzzles to be solved in order to get through the levels.

About This Game

Ingolstadt, Bavaria, 1793. Frankenstein's monster is stalking the city's streets, driven by fury at Victor — the man who created him and then rejected him as an abomination. Citizens and soldiers alike try to destroy the monster, certain he is a demon rather than a product of science they cannot understand. The game follows the film's plot closely, with some notable alterations: Elizabeth's death is cut, but her grotesque resurrection as a boss fight remains.
