There is a hit combo system in place to increase the players score for subsequent hits. Enemies include clown spider heads, big-headed crazy bunnies and some variations on the regular clowns. Enemies also like to throw copious amounts of dynamite at you, which was amusing. Also a number of the situations you face involve rescuing a hostage from some tight spot, it’s not solely just saving someone that appears out of nowhere (although that happens on occasion too, and those usually end up getting shot thanks to your itchy trigger finger), such as they are stuck on a platform with ax-wielding clowns climbing ladders towards them and you have to pick them off before they reach the person. When a hostage is saved (they have to appear on the screen and run away without being killed) the game will show you the name of the person you saved and it will track that, which is interesting. How much ammo you have is listed right next to your target reticule. If you run out of ammo it just changes the gun from full auto fire to semi-auto, so it’s not a big deal if you run out of lead to shoot. Like in Panic Museum there is no reloading function although this added the ammo pic-ups. There are barrels, boxes and other objects to shoot which will reveal pick-ups which the player can shoot for points, ammo pick-ups and sometimes a hostage.

They seem kind of like robotic monsters, with a few other strange creatures thrown into the mix. The primary enemies the player will face throughout the game are killer clowns and in this regard the game has a CarnEvil feel to it, sans the gore and blood. There are 15 selectable levels, 12 mini-game missions, 6 bosses, multiple game endings, colorful graphics, and mounted guns that are exactly like the guns found in GlobalVR’s Aliens: Extermination. The story revolves around the disappearance of 100 people in a nameless city somewhere and you play one of two special agents who are investigating the mystery. In Japan the series is known as Haunted Museum. It’s actually the sequel to Taito’s Panic Museum which was released to the US by Taito through ICE in 2009.
