The game is split into stages, each focusing on a portion of one person’s story. At the center of it is a cursed shrine maiden, who repeatedly appears to torment the protagonists as they investigate the various disturbances on the mountain. An ancient evil known as the Black Water is corrupting the mountain, causing people to go missing… or worse. This particular story sees three protagonists caught up in the mysteries and tragedies of the fictional Hikami Mountain, a notoriously haunted locale. It actually turns Maiden of Black Water into a more traditional Fatal Frame game, which has mixed results.

So perhaps time and refinements to the game will shed new light on it. ![]() Does this snapshot of the Fatal Frame series’ recent past look sharp or has it faded?Īfter spending seven years confined to the Wii U, Maiden of Black Water remains the swansong entry in the underappreciated Japanese horror game series, and it wasn’t seen as a particularly triumphant finale either. The Camera Obscura returns with an upgrade thanks to a multi-platform remaster of Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water. ![]()
