Elvira II: The Jaws of Cerberus

Elvira II: The Jaws of Cerberus is the sequel of the horror rpg point-and-click adventure created by Horror Soft, based on the character Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark, a witch and movie star. The game was released in 1991 by Accolade for MS-DOS and one year later for Amiga, Atari ST and Commodore 64.

In the game you are Elvira's boyfriend and you have to save her from the evil Cerberus. The gameplay is a real mix between rpg and adventure. The point of view is first person, with a pseudo 3D. There are many rpg elements, such as the selection of the character class at the beginning, collection of XP points during exploration and combat, character level up with distribution of the skills.

Magic plays an important role. Using Elvira's book you can cast spells, combining items collected during the exploration.

The game received mixed reviews, but fans of the mistress of the dark and the survival horror genre won't be disappointed.
