Siren: Blood Curse
Following the members of an American documentary film crew into a remote Japanese mountain village, Siren: Blood Curse was an attempt of opening the Siren series to a global audience. The episodic game features a strange, apocalyptic zombie outbreak in a remote region of Japan, and the player has to utilize the special, extra sensory perception abilities of the various characters to best avoid any and all of the zombies shambling about. While we had a lot of Japanese games on this list, Siren: Blood Curse is by far the most inherently Japanese one, taking strong hints from Japan’s horror movies of recent years.
