1.0 out of 5 stars Oh, yea..., January 1, 2011

...I remember this game! I had it on Sega CD (16-bit). Thought it was the coolest thing at the time; interact with an actual movie.

Then I played the 3DO version at a friend's house and felt sorely gipped. The video was almost full screen, smoother, and there wasn't a large wait between rooms.

Then this 32X version was released. It was both a blessing and a curse, here's why:

GOOD: The video is clearer then the Sega CD version, it has a larger video screen, a pause feature, the on-screen text is legible, it's possible to see what the room buttons are supposed to be, and the audio can actually be deciphered.

BAD: There are frequent load times during videos, video screen is not as large as 3DO's, and load times inbetween rooms/failed tasks are almost unbearable--especially before something actually happens.

The long and short of it is that I played this 32X-CD version once, then returned to my old Sega CD version for subsequent plays.

3.0 out of 5 stars simple, but fun, April 13, 2007

Eh, NIGHT TRAP is not that good of a game. It's not really controversial either. I'm not sure why everyone was "up in arms" over this one. NIGHT TRAP was just scrutinized because it was the first. ('first' is debatable) This is a harmless game. It contains pretty bad video quality, but it's interactive. (If it weren't for this game, we wouldn't have the ESRB.)

Your goal is simple: trap the alien invaders, protect the girls at the slumber party.

At the time of release, the players' "control" over the game's content was considered revolutionary. NIGHT TRAP is not that big of a deal. Full motion video (FMV) games have always been heavily criticized This is not even that good of an FMV game. NIGHT TRAP is about as titillating as a department store catalog. Plenty of 1980's style and humor string the thin plot along.

Final thought: simple, but fun.
