    Night Trap (ナイトトラップ) is a full motion video game developed by Digital Pictures for the Mega-CD. It was originally released by Sega as a launch title for the system in the U.S.

    Gameplay

    The player takes the role of an agent ("control") who is tasked by Lt. Simms of SCAT (short for either "Sega Control Attack Team" or "Special Control Attack Team") to watch over four teenage girls (Lisa, Ashley, Cindy, and Megan), one boy (Danny), and an undercover agent (Kelli (Keli Medd in the manual)) visiting a house which is infested with vampiric creatures known as "Augers". The house is owned by a married vampire couple consisting of Victor and Sheila Martin, and its residents include their two children, Jeff and Sarah, and a cousin, Tony.

    The player can see what goes on around the house through different cameras that are placed in eight locations: the entryway, living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, driveway, and two hallways. The player can use the D-pad to select an area and press A on the selected area to view it. The cameras show what happens in these areas via full motion videos and the times these videos play follow a rigid script. There is also a map showing how the rooms are connected, a timer showing how much time has passed in-game, a counter showing how many Augers can be captured ("Possible") and a counter showing how many Augers have been captured ("Captured"). The player can access the map by pressing  START .

    The player can capture the Augers and any other enemy by watching the room the enemy is in, waiting for the enemy to come in range of one of the room's traps (indicated by a sensor bar), and pressing B to activate the trap. The traps are protected with an access code that is always set to blue at the beginning of the game. The code will change to a random color (blue, red, green, orange, purple, or yellow) at four different points during a game, and the player must listen in on certain conversations to learn what the code has been changed to. The player can change their code to match what the code has been changed to by pressing C.

    There are 95 Augers in total to capture; The player must capture at least 60 to be able to reach the end of the game. In addition to capturing all 95 Augers, the player must capture all of the Martins and Tony in order to get a perfect ending. Getting disconnected from SCAT or losing control of the cameras and traps to the Martins will result in a game over. SCAT will disconnect the player if any of the following happens:

    1. The timer reaches 08:47 and the "captured" counter has a number less than 10.
    2. An Auger hounding Lisa is not trapped in time.
    3. The timer reaches 13:42 and the "captured" counter has a number less than 29.
    4. An Auger hounding Ashley is not trapped in time.
    5. An Auger hounding Megan is not trapped in time.
    6. The player activates a trap resulting in Megan's death.
    7. The timer reaches 20:08 and the "captured" counter has a number less than 60.

    The Martins will regain control of the cameras and traps if any of the following happens:

    1. Tony is not trapped before he can get to Kelli and take her into the basement.
    2. Jeff stops Cindy from being hounded by Augers before the player can trap a specific Auger and bites Cindy.

    The player will get a bad ending if any of the following happens:

    1. Kelli is bitten by Sarah.
    2. Kelli is bitten by Martin.
    3. Kelli is bitten by Shelia.

    Despite the game ending after 25 minutes and 40 seconds, it contains more than 90 minutes of footage exists across the two CD-ROMs.

    History

    Development

    Night Trap was initially produced for the Control-Vision (codenamed NEMO), an unreleased console by Hasbro which relied on VHS tapes instead of ROM cartridges. A prototype game titled Scene of the Crime was produced to demonstrate the surveillance camera gameplay that would later be a core part of Night Trap. Hasbro abandoned the console fearing its high retail price, and sold the rights to the game to Digital Pictures in 1991, which set about producing a Mega-CD version. The footage was originally recorded during a three-week period in 1987 in Culver City, California. The game reportedly cost $1.5 million to produce.

    When development of Night Trap moved to the Mega-CD, Digital Pictures shot an introduction sequence and game over sequences that contained references to Sega and the controller used with the Mega-CD. These sequences would only be used with the Night Trap versions that were published by Sega.

    As with Sewer Shark and later Prize Fighter, Night Trap uses a system in which four video streams are streamed off a disc at any one time, allowing for transitions between choices without the need for intrusive disc access times. This is achieved through a proprietary video codec developed by Digital Pictures, although a side effect is noticeably low resolution footage (in addition to the already present colour loss).

    Footage of Tom Zito demonstrating early Scene of the Crime footage to Hasbro executives in December 1986 was included as a hidden bonus in the Mega-CD version of the game.

    Release

    Night Trap stands as one of the most controversial video games of all time, with its existence, alongside Mortal Kombat, Doom and Lethal Enforcers, eventually leading to the creation of the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) in North America to regulate video games for the general public.

    However, while the aforementioned games earned their status through their presentation of graphic violence (and in Lethal Enforcers's case, shipping with a physical gun), Night Trap lacks violent content, with Augers simply being pushed or dropped into holes in the walls or floors of the house. In many cases, blood is not extracted by biting as is common with vampires, but is instead extracted with a machine, designed specifically to look unrealistic and mitigate possible controversy.

    Likewise it was misconstrued for having sexual content, as in many scenes partially dressed girls are chased by Augers around the house. However, no nudity of any kind is shown at any point. Lisa's death, which occurs in a bathroom while wearing a nightgown is an often cited scene, but like all deaths in Night Trap, features no physical violence or nudity, just the screaming girl being led out of the room. Likewise the player is not directly responsible for any deaths, though can choose to drop Kelly down a hole at the end of the game.

    Night Trap was the first game to be given an MA-17 rating by Sega's Videogame Rating Council[8], although it is not thought any versions of the game were explicitly labeled as such. Some retailers chose to add their own notices for "violent" content, or indeed not stock the game at all due to the controversy.

    Due to the problems Night Trap and violent video game content was causing in the US, Sega of America stopped distributing the version of the game they published in January 1994.[9] A Mega-CD version published by Digital Pictures itself and distributed by Acclaim was released in 1995. It had an ESRB "M" rating, new cover art, and no Sega-related references in-game.

    Press coverage of Night Trap is said to have led to a greater interest in the game than was otherwise expected, leading to increased sales and numerous other FMV games being released for the next few years.

    To mitigate controversy in the UK, Sega voluntarily referred Night Trap to the British Board of Film Classification[10], becoming the first video game to be rated by the body[11]. Despite expectations that it would be rating 18, it received a 15 certificate[10], with the BBFC's James Ferman claiming it was "more like an old episode of Doctor Who"[11].

    This did not stop complaints, such as mother of three Jacqueline Nicholls organising a protest after her 9, 11 and 12-year old children witnessed scenes of the game on a shopping trip[12]. Her local MP Tony Marlow subsequently wrote to the Home Secretary and Trading Standards[12], although no further action is believed to have been taken.

    The game was completely banned from sale in Germany[13].

    Legacy

    Despite the controversy caused by its existence, sales of Night Trap were strong enough for Digital Pictures to port the game to other systems, starting with the 3DO in late 1993 before releasing versions for IBM PC and Macintosh computers in 1994. It was also released as one of six Mega-CD 32X games.
