Splatterhouse 3 or Splatterhouse Part 3 (スプラッターハウス PART3) is the sequel to Splatterhouse 2 and was released exclusively for the Sega Mega Drive in 1993. It was not released in Europe.

Due to the VRC, the violence was reduced to advoid the MA-17 rating.

Gameplay

Splatterhouse 3 strays from the gameplay of its predecessors and takes the form of a more conventional beat-'em-up with motion in two directions across each room of the mansion. The goal of each room is to clear the room of enemies, at which points all the doors of the house will unlock. Some rooms have more than two doors, allowing you to choose your path through the mansion. In addition, some enemies will drop orbs that, when collected, fill up a POW meter. Press A at any point to transform into a more powerful being and start using up this power.
