Shown through a combination of flashbacks and modern imagery, it's revealed that Mayu once received a devastating injury when the two were younger an accident that left her leg permanently scarred and slightly limp. The plot begins with pre-teen twin sisters Mio and Mayu enjoying the natural scenery in the proximity of a running stream. This change of setting definitely serves as the first clue towards establishing that Crimson Butterfly is not only much larger in scope, but also in range of evil. Far more open and less confined than the location provided in the original adventure, Fatal Frame II moves out of a giant house and into an abandoned village deep in the Japanese forest. But rather, it sets up the back-story revolving around the mystical "Camera Obscura" and its purpose in the 30 years before Miku grabbed it for her brother. Story Set almost two generations before the events of the first game, Fatal Frame II isn't a true sequel to Miku's Himuro Mansion exploits at all. Either way, it's most definitely a bloodcurdling experience. In fact, it's probably only eclipsed by the stellar Silent Hill series - and even that could just be a matter of opinion. Developed by the same team responsible for last year's Fatal Frame (and before that Deception), the newly unveiled Crimson Butterfly aims to improve on its predecessor in just about every way.īigger, longer, and scarier than the original, Butterfly not only manages to do exactly what it sets out to do, it also succeeds in becoming one of the best pure adventures on the PlayStation 2 thus far. If you're a fan of the oft-criticized survival horror sub-genre, then the Strapline above probably tells you everything that you need to know.
