It's a tale with a lot of potential, you've got to admit: young girl with a distinctive look, trying to save a loved one from the threat of a vicious wolf. I've even had, for many years, the perfect game based around the character planned out in my head. You've got Little Red Riding Hood, dressed in a blood-red Japanese Elegant Gothic Lolita-style outfit, traveling through the dark and daunting German countryside (complete with fully German voice acting), hunting down the bloodthirsty werewolves she has unwillingly been tasked with killing. In grand Devil May Cry fashion, the action is fast and furious, and you must fill your enemies full of silver bullets until they are severely weakened, giving Riding Hood the opportunity to relieve them of their heads with a swing of her mighty sword."
Lisa heads down the rabbit hole to check out some of the weirdest fairy tale games ever made.
ou play as one of two heroes: the buxom, all-grown-up version of Little Red Riding Hood or her pal Momotaro, a Japanese fairy-tale figure said to have been born from a giant peach. Red’s home, Fairy Tale Land, has been overrun by hordes of slavering baddies, coaxed from their coffins by what you eventually discover, through increasingly silly dialogue between Red and her companion, is some sort of evil, unnatural plague.
