Given Suda-san and Suehiro’s creative minds at work, each of these worlds is imbued with its own peculiar and twisted surprises, each guarded by a serial killer boss. The primary objective of the game is to confront and defeat these bosses, ultimately clearing the seven distinctive worlds.
When delving into the essence of the boss fights, Suehiro clarified that these adversaries aren’t direct adaptations of film characters but rather embody the essence of various horror subgenres. He explained, “They’re more like an embodiment of a subgenre of horror films. For instance, numerous subgenres exist, including slasher movies, zombie horror, summer camps, babysitters, and more. Our bosses are crafted from the tropes that have evolved within each subgenre over time.”
Swery’s most recent venture was The Good Life, an RPG that launched in 2021, while Suda51’s creative genius was showcased in No More Heroes 3, the latest installment in the long-running action-adventure series.
