The first scenario of the game takes place in his home. He is the director of the Memorial Pharmaceuticals Research Lab. He is shown to be very protective of Alyssa, usually not coming out unless she is in danger, even without the amulet. He is only able to take control of their body when Alyssa is not holding her amulet. He is cold blooded and ruthless, the dark side of Alyssa. The game opens as Alyssa is heading to her uncle's house. Alyssa's father was never around much, but when she was young he gave her an amulet. She is a 17 year old school girl who has been having dark visions of murder. Alyssa Hale: Alyssa is the main character in Clock Tower 2.Seemingly inconsequential actions can largely affect the ending. This element is important, because the game has a staggering 13 different endings. Bates and Alyssa will trigger different events in the story and can pick up or use different items. Bates is a tough guy, and, unlike Alyssa, he can use guns, which are placed sparingly throughout the game and allow you to get rid of an enemy easily.Īlyssa can switch personalities with Bates by dropping her amulet somewhere (picking it up will turn you back to Alyssa). This time, however, you share your body with Bates, your alternate personality. Most of the game still consists of running through a house, evading mostly invulnerable enemies by hiding under or in furniture, or using your environment against them. This time, you're being hunted by more than one crazy murderer: a psychotic zombified girl named Stephanie, her zombified brother, Michael, and various other psychos and zombies. The game still uses a point and click interface, with the inventory on the top of the screen.
