The game was released in Japan but a fan translated version is available on the internet. The player takes control of Jennifer Simpson who has recently been adopted with some friends by Mr. Barrows, a wealthy man who lives in a mansion known as the Clock Tower. They are lead there by a lady called Mary, or Ms. Mary. Once inside the house they discover that the Barrows family is far from normal.
Clock Tower is a point and click horror game, with the player controlling a cursor to direct Jennifer and give commands such as to check objects. The interface is akin to 1990-era computer adventure games, but simplified to work better with a gamepad. There are few enemies and little action in the game, as most of the tasks involve finding keys and other items. However, there are sections of the game when Jennifer is chased by the "scissorman" who shows up at various points. This game introduces the "panic" feature where the player must repeatedly pound the "panic button" to fend off the attacker.
Clock Tower can be considered one of the first survival horror games. It was also one of the first to incorporate multiple endings. It contains more endings than most modern day games. Clock Tower was later released only in Japan on Playstation, Wonderswan, and Windows '95. Other games in the series have been releaed in America and other countries since.
