Even more importantly, our photos should be as focused as possible for the best possible outcome, and shots should be taken just before we are attacked for maximum effect. The closer we are to our target, the more damage we cause. When we use it, the perspective changes to first person and by taking pictures of hostile spirits, we can weaken them and send them into the beyond. Why did it have to be dolls.?Īt the heart of the gameplay is the famous Camera Obscura, a camera that has the ability to exorcise the souls of the dead (the influence of the old Indian belief that photographs trap one's soul is rather apparent).
Of one thing, however, we can be almost certain: that the places we will traverse do not lend themselves to an idyllic walk. Mount Mikami was also a place of attraction for both metaphysical enthusiasts, naturalists, and people who wanted to end their lives, as legend had it that the souls of those who died there were relieved of suffering and burden and passed on peacefully to the afterlife. But those who did not have the mental fortitude to perform their duties were sacrificed so that they could become the barrier that would restrain the Black Water (without spoiling much, that rite was, by and large, horrific and deplorable). According to tradition, some priestesses helped the dying to pass peacefully into the afterlife. On this mountain in the past there was an order whose purpose was to contain the Black Water that flowed from this mountain, and legends said that it would upset the balance between the world of the dead and the living. The Intersection of their investigations is Mount Hikami, which has a troubled and gruesome past. Plot-wise there is an ambiguity in the unfolding of the story, though what is certain is that there is a connection between the characters and a common goal: to find familiar faces that have gone missing. The story focuses on 3 protagonists Yuri, Miu and Ren, and their excursions to Mount Hikami. There are some characters that reappear or are linked to some of the previous ones, but I don't think it takes away from the overall experience. Maiden of Black Water (MoBW henceforth), although the 5th installment in the Fatal Frame / Project Zero series and also the last in terms of story, I think it can easily be played by anyone without any previous knowledge required. Thankfully, the Japanese, albeit slowly, have deigned to bring the latest of these to our computer screens. The first installment made its debut back in 2001 on the PlayStation 2, at a time when the survival horror genre was thriving. Tecmo Koei's series has also made its mark, counting five main releases and one spin-off. But we will be remiss not to mention Project Zero (Fatal Frame in the US). When we discuss major survival horror game series, the conversation usually gravitates towards Resident Evil, Silent Hill and Alone in the Dark.
