Hamilton finds herself traveling through different decades in time, involved in head-on confrontations with deranged serial killers, discovering her heritage as a "Rooter", and learning the truth of her family's history. Afterwards, things get really interesting as Ms. Cryptic and most definitely sinister, the stranger disappears upstairs to leave Alyssa on her own to figure out what's happening. Once there, Alyssa discovers that her mother is nowhere to be found and is instead greeted by a bizarre boarder who has taken up residence in the mansion. As one would expect, Alyssa becomes intrigued and frightened by her mother's note at the same time and does exactly what she was asked not to do: return to the family home the very next day. "Go as far away from the family home as possible" it reads, "no matter how enticing it may be to return here for your 15th birthday". Beginning in London 2003, the story begins as heroine and boarding school attendee Alyssa Hamilton receives a panicked letter from her mother. It's the well-laid plotline that serves as the game's strongest selling point, after all, and is by far its most compelling element. Story To reveal too much of Clock Tower's screenplay would be a disservice to the people who buy it.
The result is the single best incarnation the series has seen so far, and one of the scariest adventures this side of Silent Hill. Bidding farewell to the mouse-controlled setup of versions past, Clock Tower 3 takes the more traditional approach offered by its competitors while implementing a few unique gameplay elements of its own.
Amazingly, the Clock Tower franchise has managed to find a way to live on, and for the first time since its Super Nintendo incarnation, has been re-engineered by the minds at Sunsoft and Capcom to create an experience that not only transcends its namesake, but other genre entries as well.
