Played by JagOfTroy
Made by the infamous LJN and one of few games to give players access to four player action.
Despite what has been said about it, the game has very enjoyable gameplay with some replay value as it changes up the locations you go to for the first three houses although the stages always look the same.
I do have to give this game a bonus for its musical track as well since it made the game much more pleasant to longplay. -

Never played this as a kid, but watching it now (and more importantly listening to it) reminds me so much of the NES era and how magical it was.

Back to my childhood days, I've found it to be hard as hell... Never was able to beat it. But keep playing, because the Elm Street Theme was so amazing. A good example of an underrated game.

I like this game. Its very good, better than friday the 13th, which too is still a good one. Three best ljn games are: 1) True Lies SNES, 2) This, 3) Friday the 13th NES.

For 8 bit NES, this isn't too bad. The audio and graphics work nice here. Like most other platform games at that time, I'm guessing story content is all wrapped up in the manual, when it would have been nice to include it at the intro. But then again, anybody familiar with the title / movies at least knows the primary goal is to stay alive and slay Freddy.

@tylerwilliams6022 3 жыл бұрын

I remember this and Friday the 13th being tough games. I think in NOES I only ever made it partway through the school. In Friday the 13th I cant remember how far I ever made it as your progress was hard to judge. I remember always getting pissed off in the caves because I could never find Jason's mother. If I remember correctly, if you found his mother Jason would lose his weapons.

I'm watching carefully and your 'sleep' meter goes down with time, not from defeating enemies. When the meter drops to zero, you fall asleep and end up in the nightmare world, which is why the character collects coffee to help him stay 'awake'.

No, the ninja wasn't a wizard, he was a ninja, he was based off of Rick the marital artist from Nightmare 4. And yes, this game was primarily from Nightmare 3. They have to collect the bones and destroy (even though in the movie they buried them but same concept) and Nightmare 3 was the only movie where the teenagers had special powers in their dreams, plus the house and the junkyard. But there are other areas of the game that are based off of the other movies, but minimal

Absolutely. It appears as if he only wanted to blame that game because it was necessary for this kind of video. And I had that feeling from the first moment I saw the video. He was angry about it for no reason, there was not many things to be upset about. Other games really have many problems to complain about but not this one. In any case, this game is the best LJN game ever made, and it is playable, I can not understand why somebody hate it that much.

New Line needs to wisen up and make current gen games of both Nightmare and Friday13 franchises. I suppose Friday could be stealth/action and play as Jason or the campers, and Nightmare, I dunno, but the possibilities are endless considering the dream factor.
