Project Scissors Announced

Nude Maker, a game developer led by Hifumi Kouno, the creator of the horror-adventure franchise Clock Tower, has begun development of a brand-new horror game franchise, Project Scissors. This year is the 20th anniversary of Clock Tower, and the new game is to be a spiritual successor of the original franchise.

The game’s setting is aboard a luxurious cruise liner in the middle of the ocean. As the ship sails across the deep blue ocean, a series of gruesome and mysterious murders begins to take place, including those of the ship’s crew. Soon the ocean liner is crippled and adrift at sea, and has become an inescapable trap for the passengers. As a passenger of the ship, the player will be tasked with solving the murder mystery to ensure their own survival as well as the rest of the ‘innocent’ passengers.
