The series plays like a horror film and unlike other survival horror games, the Clock Tower series does not focus on shooting creatures or using violence, but rather using your surroundings to hide and escape while solving puzzles and following the twisting storyline. The main character is usually quite helpless compared to the villains, so the main emotional connection to the game is the fear of being captured or discovered.
Main series
There are currently four games in the series. The first two games are directly connected by use of common main characters and villains; the latter two titles do not share common characters.
Clock Tower: The First Fear;
Clock Tower (Clock Tower 2 in Japan);
Clock Tower 2: The Struggle Within (Clock Tower: Ghost Head in Japan);
Clock Tower 3;
Ownership
After Human Entertainment folded in 1999, the Clock Tower series was sold to Capcom. Clock Tower 3 was created by Sunsoft and published by Capcom. Not only was this part of the series created by a different company, it also offered 3D movement for the first time within the series.
Film
A Clock Tower movie was announced on June 21, 2006, directed by chilean director Jorge OlguĂn. The plot appears to concern Clock Tower 3, as opposed to the earlier games in the series. Production is to begin this fall.
