Clock Tower II: The Struggle Within, known as Clock Tower: Ghost Head in Japan, is a PlayStation point-and-click survival horror game and the third installment in the Clock Tower series. It was developed and published by Human Entertainment on March 12, 1998 in Japan and later published by Agetec on October 31, 1999 in North America. It was released as a PlayStation Classic on the Japanese PlayStation Network for PlayStation 3 on May 9, 2012. The game is a spin-off story with little to no connection to the story of the Barrows/Burroughs family or Scissorman, nor was Hifumi Kono involved with it. It does not take place in Europe as many of the others do; it takes place in Osaka, Japan. In the North American version, the setting was changed to Salinas, California, and the characters were given Westernized names. However, untranslated Japanese can be seen in the hospital entrance and even in the intro, there are Japanese-styled buildings, including a Shinto shrine. The game also contains various Japanese-styled rooms and samurai armor. Read less

This was genuinely frightening back when I was a kid-a chiid with a knife roaming around trying to kill the MC. Today, it's kinda like a cruel joke, Batman's Joker would laugh at. We sometimes get some laughs whenever she appears. Was fun around Chapter One but only up to that point.

Never finished the next chapters because what was once a promising theme of Japanese occult turned into a resident evil clone.

Good graphics when played through Duckstation (emulator) and set to high resolution.
