Is Clock Tower - Ghost Head still worth playing in 2026?
Known in the West as Clock Tower II The Struggle Within, Ghost Head stars Alyssa, a young girl with a split personality who flips between two identities with opposing abilities. This original device, grafted onto the series' combatless horror, brings a singular survival mechanic. The heavy atmosphere and multiple endings are winning, but the stiff handling and an uneven story place it below the best entries. A curiosity for fans of the saga and lovers of atypical survival horror.
