What?! You people haven't reviewed Uninvited yet?! What's WRONG with you people?!!?<BR><BR>.....Ahem. This was the best, and last, Nintendo game by Icom Simulations. It's the standard "Go through the Haunted House to save your sister/girlfriend/stupid yellow rat". You just go around, collecting stuff and solving puzzles, and finding creative ways to kill yourself. There are a few references to their previous games as well. <BR><BR>Sound: Total shit. But it doesn't really matter, since the storyline is the game's only claim to fame. <BR><BR>Gameplay: Basic choose-your-own-adventure/horror. Not much good unless you like to read a lot. <BR><BR>Music: Excellent...for a NES game, that is, but still pretty good. I even use some of the songs. The music is appropriately unsettling, and the "Death Becomes You" music actually kept me up at night, thinking that a bony hand will impale me through my matress and drag me in, ala Freddy Krueger. But I digress. Basically, it's better than most NES games. <BR><BR>Originality: Not much. But it can scare you the first time you play it, especially in the first floor hall..... <BR><BR>Graphics: Pictures are a bit unnessessary in text games, but it helps in this game. The "Your Quest Is Over" screen and the death screens enhanced the experience, believe it or not. <BR><BR>Overall: A natural choice for the people of I-Mockery. Even if it's a shitty text game.
