It’s like David Bowie said, “Scary Monsters.” Kalisto Entertainment’s Nightmare Creatures sees 19th century London threatened by an onrush of gruesome beasts brought forth by the evil Adam Crowley (sort of a mix of the 1920’s “wickedest man in the world” Aleister Crowley and The Muppet Show’s Animal) and his sinister cult, the Brotherhood of Hecate. It’s your job to wipe out these most unholiest of unholies and their master - either as the young American swordswoman Nadia or Ignatius, the staff-wielding monk.

While Nightmare Creatures has been likened to a hybrid of Eidos’ Tomb Raider and Capcom’s Resident Evil, that’s not an entirely accurate analogy. The title takes place in a spooky 3D world that you view from a behind-the-back perspective; and that’s where any comparison to either of the games pretty much stops. The game runs at a jaunty 30+ frames per second with up to four monsters simultaneously onscreen and with little or no slowdown, though admittedly, the environment is kept fairly dark and/or misty so that you can’t watch the graveyards, alleys, sewers, and the like being built up around you. It’s less a criticism than an observation, since the darkness can easily be attributed to “atmosphere.”

But catacombs and cesspools aside, the real mood-setters are the monsters. You will encounter fifteen distinct types of creatures (ranging from zombies to giant spiders, dog-sized rats to werewolves, hellhounds to harpies, and three-headed ogres to flaming imps) and five different bosses, such as the Yeti, a four-headed fire-breathing serpent, and old Crowley himself. All have distinct powers and attack styles, making them quite a caliginous handful when an unpredictable, varied group pounces on your character all at once.
