Friday the 13th - NES | Horror Game Revisited!
28In this Spooktober video I'll revisit Friday the 13th on the NES for the first time since I was a kid. This is a horror game that I rented back in the day and it scared me a little. Also I couldn't figure it out. Still don't know all the tips and tricks, but come watch me take on Retro Jason Voorhees and his mom Pamela Voorhees at Camp Crystal Lake in this NES version of the classic horror movies Friday the 13th. I'm not too fond of this being made by LJN, but they didn't do too bad with it. I kinda like to think it was ahead of its time.
It's a pretty typical summer at Crystal Lake with the counselors. Why do people keep coming here? Anyways there's a group of happy children staying in the Camp. You and your six Camp Counselor friends are watching over the kids while enjoying the lake and the wilderness. The days are bright and sunny. The nights are cool and clear. And Jason is on a rampage. It's up to you to stop him, but it's not going to be easy at all. You must first fight your way through forests filled with man eating wolves, caves covered with blood sucking bats, and hordes of mindless zombies everywhere you turn. Yeah I remember those in the movies....don't you? LOL. You must also help any friend who is in danger, or else you can just kiss them goodbye. And hiding in a cabin or staying adrift in a canoe won't keep you safe because Jason will find you anywhere. The only way to survive this summer is to challenge Jason face to face, and destroy him. GOOD LUCK!
Leeweegee gets to control one of the six camp counselors in this lets play and with each having varying levels of speed, rowing and jumping ability in a side scrolling perspective. The counselors start with an arcing rock attack that misses a lot unless you get close. The goal is to find and defeat Jason Voorhees three times. Along the paths, players will find cabins, a lake, caves, and go into the woods with all of them but the cabins having enemies such as zombies, bats, and wolves attacking the player. Players may upgrade their weapon upon finding a new one. A Jason alarm sounds at certain intervals, requiring players to find Jason before he kills one or more children or another counselor within the time limit. Using the map, players must navigate their way to Jason's location or switch to the counselor being attacked and defeat him. If they do not make it there in time, Jason will kill the counselors or some of the children. Fun game for children right?
Upon nearing Jason's location, Jason may appear on the path or in the lake and attack the player out of nowhere. When inside a cabin Jason will attack the player Punch Out style, but with horrible controls. Players may light the fireplaces inside of larger cabins with the lighter and not the torch as the game says. Upon lighting all fireplaces, a flashlight and torch weapon are available. Notes are found in some larger cabins leading the player to other notes in other locations, eventually leading to new items. The objective of the game is to survive for three days and three nights while attempting to find and kill Jason. Players may battle Jason's mother Pamela Voorhees who is in a hidden locked room in the cave. She is represented as a floating Medusa Head that swoops down to attack the player reminiscent of Castlevania. Navigating in the woods or cave can be confusing as they are set up to purposely confuse the player in which you'll see in this video. They hide several locked rooms/cabins. If all counselors or children die, the game is over and you don't want that, DO YOU?
