About the game:
Friday the 13th (stylized as Friday the 13th: The Computer Game) is the first game adaptation based on the films of the same name.
The player can roam freely around the scenery and walk both inside and outside buildings. Jason, as well as other characters, do the same. It is the player's task to make sure their friends do not get killed by Jason, who often appears disguised as one of them, unless he is hit once and becomes visible as a man dressed in black. Various improvised weapons (e.g., a chainsaw, a pitchfork, a machete, etc.) are scattered around the camp and inside various buildings such as a barn, a church and a cabin. Once picked up, they can be used to confront Jason. There are five levels in the game and each time the player assumes the role of another character. The character assignment is random at the start of the round. The game uses an early pseudo-3D view along with a more traditional side view, depending on the character's location. The game also features a "fear meter", in the form of a blonde woman's head with hair standing on end, to symbolize the player character's level of fright at the time. Unlike the later Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) title, the game included scenes of gore consistent with the film franchise. For example, when a character is killed by Jason, sometimes there is a scream followed by a quick cut to a graphic image of a machete embedded into their head.
About the run:
Got decent luck by finding Jason rather quickly everytime, unfortunatly I wasnt always having the best possible weapon to defeat him so this took sometimes to long to get rid of him. Still its not that easy as it looks to kill him 5 times in a row, he is pretty good with his machete.
