Today in the history of gaming: the first game of the "Zero~Zero" series of photo exorcisms was released

I don't know if the remake of "Zero: Witch of the Crows" was played some time ago. This year's "Zero" series ushered in the 20th anniversary, and on December 13, 2001, the PS2 game "Zero ~Zero~" was officially released.

The first Zero was a horror adventure game released by Tekumo Studios at the time. At a time when Western-style horror games against terrifying creatures such as Resident Evil were popular, its Japanese horror games based on spiritual horror first appeared, which attracted considerable attention at the time. The game began serialization after the release of the 2003 sequel Zero: Red Butterfly.

The protagonist of the first "Zero" is a young girl with psychic ability, "Yan Yu Deep Red". Players will manipulate her to explore the vast mansion "Ice Chamber" in search of her missing brother.

The game is unique in that some points can be photographed using a camera called a "projector". If there is a ghost there, a terrible psychic photo can be taken, so when you first touch the game, many players will be startled.

The projector also has the ability to exorcise ghosts, and can shoot multiple times by charging up, accumulating damage. Ghosts in the game are set up to take photos during certain actions, and if you take pictures of it, you can deal huge damage. The fight in Zero is weird and strange, but it's pretty exciting and fun.

In addition, the projector is used not only for combat, but also for solving mysteries. The use of psychic puzzles to advance was a novel design at the time, such as taking photos and opening an invisible door on the wall, which was very interesting.

However, since 2014, the "Zero" series has not been new news for a long time. Until October 28, 2021, the fifth work in the series, Zero: The Witch of the Ravens, was released.
