I'll be back to this with a review shortly. If I'm not back in four days, ping me.

Review[edit]

  • "Each character has three levels of strength." - It doesn't say anything about multiple characters until much later in the section. This needs addressing.
    • Changed to "The player character..."
  • "After the events of Clock Tower (1995), Jennifer Simpson was adopted by Helen Maxwell" - Maybe alter the link to read "After the events of the original Clock Tower, central protagonist Jennifer Simpson was adopted by Helen Maxwell".
    • Done
  • "The game offered a deep horror atmosphere that few games at the time had" - Who said this?
    • That was a stretch of what was said in first paragraph of GameSpot review. Reworded.
  • "[15][1][2]" - This sequence appears repeatedly in the Reception section. It needs to be rearranged as "[1][2][15]".
    • Done
  • "In 2006, GameTrailers placed Clock Tower at #10 on their "Top Ten Horror Games" list.[22]" - That's inaccurate. [ This] is their "Top Ten Horror Games" list, and it makes no mention of Clock Tower. The reference says "Top Ten Scariest Games", which does. The prose needs correction to match up with the reference.
    • Done
  • As a matter of safety, you should archive the online references.
    • Done

That's all I found. I'll put the article on hold until the issues are addressed. --ProtoDrake (talk) 10:18, 16 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@ProtoDrake: Thanks for this review, all issues addressed. TarkusAB 03:26, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@TarkusAB: Don't see anything else outstanding. I'll give this a Pass. --ProtoDrake (talk) 09:07, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Contemporary reviews:[edit]

Yeah, gonna be difficult for a JP only game, but it would be nice if this article could have some more contemporary reviews added. I added Famitsu's score, which is a start. I'll keep looking around. The source would be gaming mags from 96. Harizotoh9 (talk) 09:42, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
