The chibi and colorful parody of arcade Splatterhouse on Famicom. Rick and Jennifer in an ultra-kawaii haunted mansion. Delicious contrast between horror material and childlike aesthetics. Delightfully absurd.

Is Splatterhouse - Wanpaku Graffiti still worth playing in 2026?

A parodic Splatterhouse spin off from Namco, Wanpaku Graffiti transposes the series' gore horror into a comic platformer with super deformed characters, where Rick and Jennifer face classic horror cinema monsters in a haunted house. The good natured macabre humour, the genre nods and a snappy, inventive gameplay give an irresistible charm to this gem that stayed in Japan. The careful production appeals. For a retro platforming fan, a fan of offbeat horror or a collector, the title keeps a singular personality and humour.
