A short point and click adventure game in the style of something like Shadowgate, but themed like Elvira, Batty Zabella is a sometimes infuriating experience. The puzzles aren’t hard, but the lack of being able to tell where some room exits are (I didn’t even know there was a shed for ages!), fiddly combat (it’s a Game Boy game but really feels like these bits need a light gun or mouse pointer) and a weapon which needs recharging but you never seem to know when so you die a lot, all add up to frustration.
I did enjoy it, however, despite those issues and the slightly odd (I assume it’s translated) dialogue and overly smutty references.
