![]() What I've managed to collect here was such an adventure that I actually started on it the whole previous year's Halloween season, and even scouring complete gameplay videos is a chore and a half, because it looks like every game in this series is brutally, soul-suckingly long. It's all a pretty damn fantastic story concept, but I have no idea what happens from there, and the fandom is actually so preoccupied with the "collectible anime teenagers" part that any further information on the story, the setting, and the creatures is scattered incompletely across fan blogs and gaming videos. Supposedly, when the spire reaches the "moon," something simply called a "Witchcraft" will hatch, and has the power to grant one wish. It gets creepier, too, because at the center of the city is an enormous, living spire, possibly the seat of the being's consciousness, and it has never stopped growing towards what appears to be a moon hovering static in the alien sky.actually an egg. Generations later, I think, the city has evolved into a malevolent, sentient hellscape known only as "The Jail" to its human captives and their descendants, who spend a great deal of their short lives either locked in cells, fighting through unending dungeons and suffering various tortures at the hands, claws or tentacles of the Marchens surreal monstrosities the Jail creates from whoever and whatever it pleases. The whole city, everybody in it, completely gone the next morning. See, at some point in Mary Skelter continuity, a shooting star fell into the middle of an unspecified city, erupted instantaneously with a vast network of black roots, sealed the entire metropolis within an inescapable dome of alien flesh and just sort of took it somewhere. It's also one of those games with a preposterous number of said human characters to find, like Pokemon for people with too many dakimakura to pass off as a funny joke anymore, and it's too bad, because its actual storyline and setting, like its creature art direction and its soundtrack's unapologetic use of the fiddle, are way too good to have been paired with such a terrible sales hook. The creature designs are gonna knock your block off, I swear, and the storyline is certainly imaginative, it's just that.Mary Skelter is one of those video games whose fandom and marketing both seem to revolve around the "sexiness" of its human characters, and as far as I'm aware they're all just kids. Okay, I'm being hyperbolic here, I do technically know what Mary Skelter is, I just didn't really want to. The Best Creature Designs From Whatever the Hell Mary Skelter Is
