8[BLIND LET'S PLAY] - SPOILERS FOR THE PAST 6 CORPSE PARTY GAMES I'VE COVERED ARE IN THE DESCRIPTION! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SPOILED ANY DETAILS FOR THESE GAMES I RECOMMEND CHECKING OUT MY PREVIOUS LET'S PLAYS ON THEM OR PLAYING THEM YOURSELF BEFORE READING ON! IF NOT, THEN READ ON AT YOUR OWN RISK!
With 6 Corpse Party games of both official and fan-made origin under his belt, Neosekken is beginning to feel like a reasonably-experienced Corpse Party player, and with each game he completes the more confident he feels he can tackle just about any Corpse Party game without too much issue. Having just completed "Corpse Party if PAST END", Neo decided he wanted to cover another fan game right after this, and going over the list of games available on Memories of Fear's website he comes across another Corpse Party fan game made by AMISOGUMI, the same team who made "Corpse Party if PAST END": "Corpse-Party: -Cross Fear-".
AMISOGUMI began production on "Corpse-Party: -Cross Fear-" on March 15, 2011, after the release of "Corpse Party: Blood Covered ...Repeated Fear" for the PlayStation Portable in Februrary 2011 just a month prior, and for this game's story they decided to focus on the aftermath of what happened to the surviving main character from 'CORPSE-PARTY ZERO", 5 years after the events of "ENDING RANK: A" from that game.
After surviving the events from "CORPSE-PARTY ZERO", Kaori Hasegawa wound up being admitted into a psychiatric hospital for outrageous claims that her sister, Shiho, was murdered by the evil spirits that haunt the abandoned schoolhouse she and her younger sibling found themselves trapped in, and has been at this hospital ever since. Her only friend within this hospital is a young boy called Seita Kanemoto, who is at the same hospital Kaori is after it was deemed that he be placed there to help him recuperate from some child abuse committed on him by his parents. When Neo boots the game up proper, he finds himself watching Kaori's psychiatrist, Dr. Mitsuhito Amagasaki, come visit her in what is his latest attempt to try and convince Kaori that her account of what happened to her and Shiho is nothing more than fantasy, but Kaori refuses to budge on the matter. However, as the discussion grows tense and Dr. Amagasaki finds himself checking Kaori out, Dr. Amagasaki decides to take advantage of his good-standing reputation among the hospital staff and Kaori's absolutely poor one to attempt to sexually assault Kaori, telling her outright that no one would believe anything she told them when they compared her word to his own as a result of their respective reputations.
Neo, being unable to take his fist to Dr. Amagasaki's balls, can only helplessly watch this scene happen... before Kaori asks the morally-depraved doctor if he wants to hear a story. Dr. Amagasaki is confused by this question, and for a minute so is Neo, but once Kaori begins speaking her tale and Neo recognizes the similarities it has to ANOTHER tale from "CORPSE-PARTY ZERO", Neo sees what her plan is, and by the time Kaori finishes telling her story Neo watches as Kaori, Dr. Amagasaki, and Seito, who happened to wander into Kaori's room right after she finished telling Dr. Amagasaki her story, are sucked into a VERY familiar, dilapidated school building...
As soon as everyone gets their bearings and Kaori explains the situation to Dr. Amagasaki and Seito, they are happened upon by ANOTHER person that Neo recognizes from "Corpse Party if PAST END", bringing the total number of people within the group to 4. Taking control of Kaori, Neo begins his 7th Corpse Party game, and begins exploring the haunted school building once again, keeping an eye out for any clues that'll help guide him to the exit and evading any dangers he inevitably comes across along the way...
