The corpse party series has been adapted many times. Several mangas , OVAs , two real films and drama CDs were released. Theme parks also took up the Corpse Party .
Gameplay
The Corpse Party series is a series of horror - adventure video games with elements of role play . The games are held from a third-person , top-down perspective. In order to achieve the goal of the game of escaping the school cursed by ghosts, the player must explore the school grounds, interact with its surroundings, inspect documents and avoid contact with the ghosts. In addition, the player has to pick up objects and communicate with the other characters.
The games are mostly divided into several chapters that relate to the different characters. Multiple endings are possible in each chapter, which can be achieved depending on the player's choices in the game. The true ending is achieved through the overall progress in the game, while several bad endings are unlocked by completing tasks that are irrelevant to the story outside of the actual storyline. The characters have health bars , which show how many hits a character can take before they die, which also unlocks a bad ending depending on the situation. Depending on how the player progresses in the game, another ten chapters can be unlocked that relate to the supporting characters and extend the duration of the game. In contrast to classic role-playing games, there is no combat system in Corpse Party . Instead, the player has to make decisions to avoid potential dangers.
The remakes Blood Covered and Repeated Fear also contain additional characters, a more extensive game world and a more extensive plot, as well as a detailed background story.
Many players describe Corpse Party as a visual novel . According to Tim Lipschultz, this is not entirely correct. Various scenes, such as the unlockable extra chapters, are exclusively characterized by dialogue scenes , but the game allows free exploration of the game world.
action
The corpse party games revolve around Japanese high school students who tell ghost stories to one another after their school festival ends and are sucked into a dilapidated, ghost-haunted primary school in a parallel universe by a surprising earthquake . The main character of the game is the kind-hearted student Satoshi Mochida, who is raised by his school friends due to his fearful nature.
Other characters include Naomi Nakashima, Yoshiki Kishinuma, Ayumi Shinozaki and Yuka Mochida, Satoshi's younger sister. The antagonist of the game is the red ghost of a young girl who seeks revenge for his wrongful death.
Corpse Party 2: Dead Patient, on the other hand, takes place five years after the acts of the game Corpse Party: Blood Drive in an abandoned hospital, the Amare Patriarch Crucis , from which it is necessary to escape. This game follows the student Ayame Itō, who has lost her memories of her past . In search of a way out, the player encounters other characters who turn out to be supporters or enemies, as well as bloodthirsty zombies .

development
Developed the Corpse Party -Videospielreihe among others by Dojin development team Team GrisGris and Grindhouse . The games use RPG Maker 2000 as their engine .
The graphics are a combination of two-dimensional animated sprites , silent fullscreen Arts, fleshy, squishy sound effects and high quality voice acting. The latter were recorded binaurally to create an illusory 3D sound. For this purpose, artificial heads were used as a microphone when recording the sounds in Blood Covered , Blood Drive and Book of Shadows . Corpse Party: Blood Drive and the sequel Corpse Party 2: Dead Patient have 3D animations for the first time, the characters are shown as Chibis , with the classic CG artwork still being used. These were designed by Sakuya Samishiro.

Prohibitions
