(Because the credits soundtrack is the title theme, I took precautions and edited in the game's Main Menu Theme as a replacement instead.)
The final epsiode follows a similar structure from episosde 1 where you go from point A to point B without being able to fight back because you have to get past humans. And all of them except for the very first security guard have the same issue with the line of sight where they instantly see you, even when their back is turned, when there is nothing between you and them. The first half contains stealth and puzzles. Once you return from point B to A, you have to capture Zombies and Fir Ghosts. The Fire Ghosts are regular Ghosts with an additional gimimck on top of it where they need to touch a sprinkler first in order to be vulnurable. The final boss requires the most amount of restarts when you combine 'No Damage' with 100 percent, especially because you will most likely take hits whilw trying to capture two of the regular Fire Ghosts in order to make the last ingredient spawn.

A laughably easy, but largely polished game. It even has a little Gameplay Depth at times, but none of it must be known to beat this game, since it is made very forgiving with all the healing items around. However, this also compensated by a high variety of Gameplay moments throughout the 5 episodes.

This run features the following conditions:
- 100%: All clues and ingrediants. Since you need to only find 5 of each for every episode and they are almost not annoying or not too annoying to collect, all bonus items will be picked up.
- No Damage: Due to the very easy nature of this game, I was curious if a proper run with no hits taken at all would be possible to do. Segmented of course, otherwise a run consisting of restarting after the slightest mistake would be frustrating.

Unfortunately, the AV to HDMI adapter, that allows to record older consoles with a clean picture and 16:9 screen with the recording device (as opposed to 4:3 with partially glitched graphics if AV is connected to Component), provides a very dark picture and lots of areas couldn't have bee seen properly in the video (it also gave a harder time while playing). CGI Cutscenes were kept as is, but for Gameplay, I had to find a way to brighten up the area somehow. Unfortunately, I haven't found a good way to do so. The best solution I was able to come up with was to scale up Contrast a little and Gamma Correction to an absurd degree. This makes the colours of the video very ugly, especially in darl areas, but at the very least the Gameplay can be properly seen now. The darkness issues with the weird pallettes will be a reoccuring theme during this series.
