ROSE-TINTED TERROR ON PLAYSTATION®2
Publishing label 505 Gamestreet announces the October release
of Rule of Rose(TM), a psychological suspense adventure, developed
by Sony Computer Entertainment Inc.
Prepare to join the strangest and most dangerous secret society
you've ever seen in Rule of Rose TM , for PlayStation ® 2
computer entertainment system. In 1930's England, a group of
little girls form a club called the "Red Crayon Aristocrats".
They devise a series of rules, known as "Rule of Rose", which
governs the society, its hierarchy, and the games its members
play. After a surreal and frightening encounter with a young
boy on a public bus, Jennifer, an unhappy and fragile young
girl, begins her descent into the nightmarish world of Rule of
Rose TM and has no choice but to obey the cruel and disturbing
codes of her giggling tormentors. Rule of Rose TM is a
psychological horror game with a difference. Gone are the
gung-ho heroes and fearsome biological mutants, and in their
place is a group of eerie little girls and the power games they
like to play. Players assume the role of Jennifer, whose only
friend in this twisted tale is the Labrador Brown. Together,
they must explore a world governed by strange rules and
conditions, solving puzzles and enigmas as they go, in order to
either work up the hierarchy of the Red Crayon Aristocrats, or
escape the nightmare altogether. Rule of Rose TM features
different endings based upon the way you play and the decisions
you make and offers a rich, filmic experience that's very
different from traditional action titles. To draw players as
deep as possible into the mystery, Rule of Rose TM features
astonishing in-game graphics and painstakingly researched
environments and props from 1930's-era England. The game also
features striking, sometimes shocking, CG cinematics
throughout, created by the world-renowned creators at SHIROGUMI
Inc., famed for their work on the Onimusha and Genji games.
Rule of Rose TM offers disturbing yet intriguing gameplay in a
unique and unsettling environment. It pushes the boundaries of
psychological adventure games and represents the pinnacle of
suspense adventuring on PlayStation ® 2. Rule of Rose TM
releases in October for PlayStation ® 2, priced £34.99, from
publishing label 505 Gamestreet. -ENDS- For more information
