The horror genre of movies, as well as video games is all about the fun of scaring yourself, and that's just what players get in Ju-On: The Grudge. Based on the Japanese film "Ju-On," which was turned into the popular "The Grudge" film series in the west, Ju-On: The Grudge brings this same type of fun to the Wii gaming platform like nothing before it. The first haunted house simulator for Wii, within this fright-fest individual players, and in some cases a second player, explore terrifying game environments with only the light shining off their Wii Remote to guide them as they are compelled to move forward or fall prey themselves to a curse that lingers in the dark. Story It is said that when a person dies with a deep and burning grudge, a curse is born. When an average housewife in Nerima, Japan, was murdered in a grisly fashion, it gave rise to a curse so powerful that it threatens to kill at a pace thought unimaginable before. The curse manifests on those who encounter the curse by any means, such as entering the house where the housewife met her violent end or being in contact with somebody who was already cursed. Once Erika Yamada is exposed to the curse while searching for her dog in an abandoned warehouse, the entire Yamada family is put in grave danger as soon as she reunites with them at home. They must now face their individual challenges alone, and only by overcoming the curse together will their family truly be free again. Gameplay Ju-On: The Grudge is the Wii’s first "Haunted House Simulator". Controls are intuitive and accessible, contributing to an immersive, intensely terrifying experience. Using the Wii Remote as a flashlight, players move forward with the touch of a button and explore haunted areas such as an abandoned warehouse, a dimly-lit hospital, and a fashion design studio littered with mannequins. Much like a haunted house, the player must continue forward, pressed on by fear and an overwhelming urge to explore and escape. The first haunted house simulator for Wii. View larger.
