This is a survival-horror action game in which players assume the role of a student confronting supernatural entities in a 1960s Japanese mountain town. From a third-person perspective, players explore the town, solve puzzles, interact with characters, and battle enemy creatures (e.g., humanoid monsters, mutants, mythical creatures). Players use axes, crowbars, knives, and spears to defend against and kill enemy creatures in melee-style combat. Blood-splatter effects occur frequently as characters are attacked; several areas depict large bloodstains in the environment and near corpses. Some enemy attacks can result in players' character getting impaled in the neck and/or getting their faces ripped apart. Cutscenes sometimes depict gore and more intense acts of violence: a character burned alive inside a cage; a woman branded by a hot iron; entrails and sinew displayed on serving platters in fantastical celebration/ceremony; a character sawing off her own arm; a character slicing off portions of a character's face during a ritual. Concept art depicts a nude mannequin-like character, with exposed buttocks and partially exposed breasts; the character appears in a creature-like form throughout the game.

The game contains some suggestive/sexual material: characters pole-dancing in strip-club settings; posters of women in revealing outfits (e.g., bra and thong, deep cleavage); dialogue alluding to sexuality and/or sexual abuse/misconduct (e.g., “Remember that time in the hotel? You said you took everything. But you forgot that videotape we made”; “Don't touch me...You're only after one thing…Or you could just force me, like he always did.”). The word “sh*t” appears in the game.

This is a survival horror game in which players control characters whose fates can be altered through a mysterious book. From a 3/4–overhead perspective, players explore various “zones” in a Nightmare World, battling demonic creatures in melee-style combat.

Some weapons result in large splashes of blood and/or scattered body parts; enemies leave behind blood-like “karma puddles” when killed. One cutscene depicts a man getting torn in half by a rock monster. During the course of the game, some dialogue includes suggestive material (e.g., “You're a whore,” “That dirty skank,” “[S]he's already got you wrapped around her slutty little finger.”). A comic book panel depicts a woman in a revealing outfit; male characters comment about her “leather pants” and “super tight shirt.” The words “sh*t” and “d*ck” appear in dialogue.

This is a survival horror game in which players assume the role of Harry Mason as he searches for his missing daughter after a car crash. Players explore a mysterious town, investigate clues and objects, solve various puzzles, and interact with the world using their in-game cell phone. Some voicemail/text messages received on the phone contain references to violence, including an onlooker's vivid description of a stabbing. Players can also take pictures with their cell phone, one of which reveals the corpse of a teenager who hanged himself. Large streaks of blood are sometimes depicted on floors and walls; blood is also visible around animal and human corpses. Throughout the game, players will encounter suggestive posters/calendars/objects featuring scantily clad women. The most pertinent examples include: a poster advertising a pornographic film called Young Flesh 2 (with blacked-out nudity); portraits of women who work in a brothel; mannequins arranged in sexually suggestive positions; and rude bathroom graffiti (e.g., "Cheerleader Wh*re"). Players can visit a psychiatrist who sometimes brings up sexual issues (e.g., "All this talking and we still haven't touched on this sex thing" and "I have enjoyed role-playing during sex"). As players explore an abandoned school, they may encounter a poster for drug awareness that contains images of marijuana leaves, crack, and cocaine. Profanity (e.g., "sh*t" and "a*shole") can sometimes be heard in the dialogue.
