The original game in the
Obscure Horror Corner video has blurred graphics from a
first-person view. The player walks down
monochromatic corridors while various audio samples are played and looped over each other. Audio in the game leans heavily on recordings of interviews with various murderers, such as
Charles Manson, as well as on
distorted or reversed audio of such interviews or musical clips, such as the song "
I Love Beijing Tiananmen", played in the beginning; reversed clips from the
Swedish Rhapsody numbers station can also be heard. Adding to the game's theme of
child abuse,
The Doors' rendition of "
Alabama Song" can also be heard, starting with the verse "Show me the way to the next little girl." While the player controls their character through the hallways, images may intermittently display, taking up the entire screen and preventing the player from progressing any further until the image automatically closes a few seconds later. Most of the images seem to reference child abuse, especially people indicted in
Operation Yewtree, such as images of
Jimmy Savile and
Rolf Harris surrounded by children. Other images revolve around crime, and include people convicted or accused of murder such as Japanese child murderer, cannibal, rapist and necrophile
Tsutomu Miyazaki. Included also are photographs of
Lady Justice statues, Colombian footballer and murder victim
Andrés Escobar, and political figures such as former UK Prime Minister
Margaret Thatcher and former US President
John F. Kennedy. Works of
Roger Ballen and
Walter Sanders were also included. The only other "characters" in the game are children who bear a resemblance to each other and simply stand in one place and do not move or interact with the player at all. In the final video posted by
Obscure Horror Corner, one of these children does begin to follow the player, causing "contact damage". Since the player has no means of self-defense or any ability to heal damage, the player will inevitably die at this point in the game. The later "clone" of
Sad Satan and its subsequent offshoots closely follow the gameplay template of the original, but display different, often far more graphic, sets of images. These images include photographs of mutilated corpses and, in the case of the earliest build, an image of child pornography. == History ==
