A Nightmare on Elm Street (NES)

Im Jahr 1990 erschien ein NES Videospiel zu Wes Cravens Slasher Franchise ‚A Nightmare on Elmstreet.‘ Hätte wieder fast vergessen, dass wir ja im Halloween-Month sind, deshalb bitteschön :)

Und ich habe vor zumindest den großartigen ersten ‚Freddy‘ noch diesen Monat zu schauen. Remember, das wart der Teil in dem Johnny Depp als Teenie-Schönling gleich in ersten Minuten das zeitliche segnet.

Wie auch immer, der NES Elmstreet-Plattformer ist mir seinerzeit leider ie untergekommen. Umso schöner sich die Zeit mit diesem Playthrough zurückzuholen.

A Nightmare on Elm Street, developed by Rare and released a year after A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child’s theatrical debut, was one of just two video games to ever be based on New Line Cinema’s popular slasher series.

Freddy Krueger, a child molester who was burned to death by the parents of his victims, has once again returned from beyond the grave to haunt the dreams of a group of local teenagers. This NES platformer places you (and up to three friends if played with a multitap) in the shoes of these teens who have decided to fight back.

You explore several places along Elm Street – three random houses, a junk yard, a cemetery, and Freddy’s own dilapidated abode – with the goal of gathering up all of Freddy’s bones and burning them in the high school’s furnace. In each location, you’ll search for the bones as you fight through throngs of skeletons, spiders, bats, and zombies, and you have to be quick. Coffee can only stave off sleep for so long, and if your energy gauge runs out, you’ll find yourself being pulled into the Dream World.
