Here’s something truly surprising, though - Night Trap would also directly inspire the development of a virtual pet PC game – a game that would catalyze the creation of a huge web community, a thriving video game subculture populated mostly by women.įaced with the fallout from Night Trap’s controversy, designer Rob Fulop, according to Tristan Donovan, set out to create the “cutest,” least offensive game he could muster. Eventually, Night Trap would contribute to the creation of the ESRB rating system. Despite its hilarious B movie aesthetic, it was deemed so problematic that the federal government got involved, inciting one of gaming’s biggest controversies. Night Trap was considered exceedingly violent. Do you remember Night Trap? It was a nineties Sega CD FMV game in which vampire-esque creatures (unmistakably dudes in black clothes - it was a simpler time) loped around a house murdering teenage girls.
