| I dunno...Phantasmagoria's deaths were grim as it wasn't cartoon violence, they were murders (a magician bumping off his wives), and it was an adventure game made using video so it was all realistic.
The various wide deaths were:
1) Stabbed through the mouth with a trowel
2) Force fed intestines through a funnel until she choked
3) Had her head smashed onto a wine bottle which went through her eye
4) Had her neck broken in a machine that forced her head to turn all the way around
The heroine also met a grim end at the end if you did something wrong. She was chained into a chair with a pendulum blade aimed at her. One mess up and she could be split in half. And then, if she did escape, there was a daemon that could kill her if she was too slow in the maze. This was particularly nasty - it would stab its taloned fingers through her eyes and tear her face in half. |
