The House of the Dead Arcade

In his pursuit of controlling life and death, DBR Corporation research director Dr. Curien descends into insanity. On December 18th, 1998, he unleashes biologically-engineered creatures upon his staff at the Curien Mansion in Europe.
Two days later, after receiving a distressed phone call from his fiancée, DBR researcher Sophie Richards, AMS agent Thomas Rogan and his partner G arrive at the creature-infested mansion.
Players use a light gun to aim and shoot at approaching enemies. Both characters' pistols hold 6 rounds in a magazine; to reload, the players must shoot outside the screen. Levels, or chapters, consist of fighting creatures, rescuing DBR researchers, and shooting destructible objects for bonus items. Each chapter ends with a boss battle.
The players' lives are represented by flaming torches; one torch is removed with every enemy attack and hostage shot. Losing all lives kills the player and triggers a "Continue?" screen, followed by a game over if one elects not to continue. Rescuing researchers and collecting first-aid kits hidden in the environment yields extra lives. Other items include coins and hopping golden frogs, which award points. Rescuing every researcher encountered unlocks a secret room filled with bonus items in the final chapter.
Chapters 1 through 3 are nonlinear, with branching paths taken based on the player's decisions.
