Watch first gameplay from Clock Tower successor NightCry

By Brenna Hillier

NightCry has it all: giggling children, muttering old ladies, disbelieving bystanders – and of course, an immortal baddie wielding a giant pair of scissors.

This is the first gameplay footage of NightCry, previously known as Project Scissors.

The Clock Tower spiritual successor was originally intended for mobile release, but is coming to PC via a Kickstarter campaign.

Led by Clock Tower director Hifumi Kono, and with creative input from famed Japanese horror director Takashi Shimuzu (The Grudge). It’s a classic point and click horror adventure – none of this shooting your way out of situations.
