NEWS: Unofficial Psycho Video Game Adaptation Gates Motel in Development

via iHorror

While a handful of notable entries (The Evil Dead, Friday the 13th, Saw, Alien/Predator)  have been released over the years, one area where popular horror franchises never seem to get enough love is the world of video games. Sure, there are lots of original horror games made, but rarely does a notable genre film property get successfully translated over to the interactive realm.

Indie developers are working on a Psycho related game, albeit in an unofficial fashion. Entitled Gates Motel, the game is currently in a pre-alpha state, and thus has a long way to go before it’s done. Still, the idea sounds quite appealing.

“The game puts players in a motel off the main road, where they will play as a woman who has to confront two kinds of nightmares: The owner of the establishment as well as her own, deep, dark fears. Your job is to avoid the same fate previous tenants had to suffer while making your way to the telephone to notify local authorities and be rescued. Akin to traditional survival horror games, you will have to use your inventory and your cunning to solve various puzzles as you find your way through the motel. Survive the night, face your fears, live to see another day or perish.
Are you ready?”
