Today Idea Factory International has released more information about their upcoming release of Mary Skelter: Nightmares. Today we have information about the Blood Meter System and character profiles for Kaguya, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White.

Here is information straight from the press release about the Blood Meter System below the break:


About Massacre Mode and Blood Skelter Mode
Jack’s party of Blood Maidens, prisoners who possess the power to fight Marchens, overcome the Jail’s obstacles thanks to their special blood-activated abilities!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Blood Maidens have two meters a Blood Meter and a Corruption Meter. Overkills trigger blood splatter which fills up the Blood Meter. Once it’s full, she’ll enter Massacre mode, which strengthens her power during battle!

But be careful, massive damage to the party and KO’s fill the Corruption Meter. A full Corruption Meter causes the Blood Maiden to lose control… And then she’ll enter Blood Skelter mode. In this powerful berserk mode, she will indiscriminately attack enemies and allies! Only Jack’s Mary Gun can stop them.

Strategically balancing Massacre mode, Blood Skelter mode, and watching the meters is the key to victory!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is more information about the Blood Maidens:

CHARACTER SPOTLIGHT

THUMBELINA
The oldest of the three Blood Maiden sisters. She pushes Jack around and is so prideful that she can’t even compliment him.

SNOW WHITE
The second oldest of the three sisters. She has a gentle personality and is kind to Jack. Despite her best intentions, she ends up complicating things. She’s afraid of looking into mirrors.

SLEEPING BEAUTY
The youngest of the three sisters. She’s comforting to Jack when he feels down. She’s almost always sleepy, so she expresses most opinions with a simple nod or by shaking her head.
KAGUYA
A lazy Blood Maiden who spends most of her time in her room. She uses her special ride, Bamboo 1, to move around or to fight. It takes a while for her to open up to Jack.

Mary Skelter: Nightmares Launches on the PlayStation Vita system this September 19 (NA) and September 22 (EU). The game will receive a digital and a physical release and will be compatible with the PlayStation TV.

 

Steve Baltimore
Steve started with oprainfall not long after the campaign moved from the IGN forums to Facebook. Ever since, he has been fighting to give all non-mainstream RPGs a fair voice. As the site admin, he will continue to do this and even show there is value in what some would deem "pure ecchi." He loves niche games and anime more than anything... well, except maybe Neptune.
