Night Trap

Don't Try The Zinfandel

Something very strange is going on at the Martin's winery estate. Five young coeds have disappeared behind its oak doors.

The police are stumped.

They've called the Sega Control Attack Team. SCAT has called you. Welcome to Assignment No. 230, Code Name NIGHT TRAP. Sega's Night Trap is a game like no other. For one thing, it's the first game that can truly be called an interactive movie — a movie where you are the star, and you control the action. You decide how and when to act, as you help the plot unfold to its thrilling climax.

Night Trap is also the first game to give you interactive game play with digitized film footage and a live sound track. And although it's a game, the production is pure

Hollywood, with professional actors and actresses (including Dana Plato of Different Strokes), and spectacular special effects.

Everything was filmed and recorded just like a regular movie. The budget was pure Hollwood also, running into millions of dol-lars, and taking years to complete.

The Mission

You are a member of S.C.A.T., the Sega Control Attack Team. Commander Simms has called in your team to investigate the mysterious disappearance of five people at Victor Martin's winery estate. 0l' Victor has not been cooperative, so S.C.A.T. has secretly patched into the house security system, a clever and nasty collection of traps covering eight rooms. You control them all by remote camera and the Genesis control pad. The traps are protected by an access code with six color variations. The Martins can change the access code to prevent you from triggering traps until you discover the right color code.

Now comes the hard part. Five more beautiful coeds are coming to spend the night at the Martin estate. One of the group is Kelli Medd (Dana Plato), an undercover S.C.A.T. agent. Using the security system, you must protect the girls from whatever harm awaits, picking up clues from conversations. Most of the figures you must trap are the black wrapped ghouls called Augers. You'll hear a beep and see the counter increase whenever they enter the house. A trap indicator lets you keep track of how many you have put away

The problem is, you don't know which room they have used to enter the house. If you are not at the right place at the right time, you can miss the opportunity to make a trap. Your timing has to be precise...right down to the split second. The key to trapping is keeping an eye on the proximity meter. When it peaks at red, hit the button. If you timed it right...and if the Martins have not changed the access color, you'll see an Auger get slam dunked, gassed or otherwise taken out of the game.

Solve the mystery and you will leam the Martin estate's gristly secrets. Fail...and the coeds may wind up more than just anemic.
