Teenage orphan Jennifer arrives at the Barrows family manor with other girls and finds herself trapped in a night of danger. As Jennifer, you explore the mansion and uncover its secrets while Scissorman hunts you.
This 2D point-and-click horror adventure centers on inspecting rooms, finding and using items, and solving puzzles. When Scissorman appears, Jennifer must run, use the surroundings, or hide rather than fight him.
Room layouts, item locations, and encounters can vary between playthroughs. Your actions affect which scenes and endings you reach, giving you reasons to revisit the manor. You can play in Original mode or Rewind mode, which adds gameplay changes and refinements.
Reviewers who enjoy the game often point to its oppressive mansion atmosphere, tense Scissorman encounters, and detailed pixel art and music. Many also appreciate that changing events and multiple endings give them reasons to replay, as well as the chance to experience the game as a classic horror adventure. Others find its slow pace, dated controls, and repeated routes frustrating.
