About this game
Jack and the Blood Team will face countless perils in regaining all that has been lost, to finally escape once and for all!
Enter the world of Mary Skelter: Nightmares - a darkly sinister dungeon-crawling RPG set in a mysterious tower inspired by twisted fairy tales. Guide your hero Jack and a band of powerful Blood Maidens, the only heroes capable of cutting a path through a living dungeon inhabited by Nightmares – near unstoppable creatures that unceasingly pursue you through fiendishly constructed labyrinths. Fight through legions of “Marchens” using your Blood Maidens’ unique powers and the blood of your enemies to exploit weaknesses, buff your skills and enter a powerful ‘Massacre’ mode to gain the edge in combat. As the Blood Maidens cut through their enemies only Jack’s blood and the Mary Gun can hope to control the Blood Maidens’ violent heroics. A bloody, dungeoneering challenge awaits!
Game Features:
• Customize your characters with 20+ jobs, each with their own unique skillset and stats!
• Challenging Nightmares chase you through the dungeons – use special abilities to lay traps and gain the advantage before battle! Some say there are giant Nightmares so large they span multiple floors…
• Fill your blood meter to transform and deal more damage in the powerful Massacre mode, or reduce it to heal the party and receive stat boosts!
• Explore the twists and turns of the Jail and satisfy its bloody curdling desires to earn helpful Jail Bonuses in your quest to escape!

Goth anime dungeon crawl Mary Skelter: Nightmares is out now
Idea Factory’s Wizardry/Etrian Odyssey-esque dungeon crawl Mary Skelter: Nightmares did well enough for itself over on the Vita, and made the jump to PC today. Before you go running for the hills, look up there at all those stats and bars and colours! It’s anime excess bleeding into the interface itself, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Judging by the trailer below, it should help pass the dungeon-crawl void shape in my heart until Nippon Ichi’s Labyrinth of Refrain arrives. (more…)Read full article on Rock, Paper, Shotgun
