"Kill people with your blue stick"

Texas Chainsaw Massacre is a very rare action game created by Wizard Video Games. You play as Leatherface, who wields a blue chainsaw to destroy anything in his way.

Graphics - In the background, you can see many trees and a house in the distance, which are nicely done. Leatherface's chainsaw does not look like a chainsaw, it looks like a blue stick with tiny squares attached to it. But Leatherface does look scary, just like in the movies.

Controls - Push the fire button to work your chainsaw. Simple as that.

Music - There's not much music in this game, but some of them are scary. You'll mostly hear the sound of footsteps through out the game. When you kill a person, some scary music will play. Seriously, it scared me the first time I killed a person.

Gameplay - The game takes place on a lime green field, where your job is to kill all the people you see, which are all women. Each time you use your chainsaw, your fuel meter will decrease. When you run out of fuel, you lose a life. To kill your victims you simply just shred them up with your chainsaw. When there's object in your way, just shred it up. It destroys anything. You don't have destroy everything in your way though, you'll waste fuel.

You get 1000 points for killing a victim. If you get to 10,000, Leatherface will start to move more faster.

If you run out of lives, it's game over. But the game over screen looks ridiculous. One of your victims runs up to you and kick you. Then the screen turns black. I thought this was suppose to be a massacre.

Difficulty - This game is very easy, since your victims just run away from you. It gets boring after a while.

Buy or Rent - I highly doubt you'll find it anywhere. You should just buy it anyways if you find it, due to its rarity.

Overall - Since the only thing to do in this game is to slaughter people, it gets repetitive after a while. Sure you'll get a thrill killing several people with a chainsaw, but after a while, it gets boring. Good luck slaughtering your poor victims.
