Upon nearing Jason's location, Jason may appear on the path or in the lake and attack the player. When inside a cabin, Jason will directly attack the player just like another Nintendo classic, 'Mike Tyson's Punch-Out'. Players may light the fireplaces inside of larger cabins. Upon lighting all fireplaces, a flashlight and torch weapon become available. Notes are found in some larger cabins leading you to other notes in other locations, eventually leading you to new items. Players may also battle Jason's mother, who is secretly hidden in a locked room in the cave. She is represented as a Medusa-like floating head that swoops down to attack the player. Navigating in the woods or cave can be confusing as they are set up to purposely disorient the player, thus making them 'lost in the woods'. Several locked rooms and cabins are hidden throughout the campground, and if all the counselors or children die, the game is over. DESTROY JASON...IF YOU CAN! |
