Plot[edit]The game is set in the fictional town of Greeley Valley, Iowa. The main character's, Jacob (Player 1) and Lisa (Player 2), join a tractor-drawn trailer called Spooky Sam's Ghost Tour on its path through a cemetery. According to an urban legend, if a golden token is inserted into the jester's mouth on top of the tombstone of someone by the name of Ludwig Von Tökkentäkker, a haunted amusement park will rise from the earth.Jacob and Lisa jump off the tour and approach Tökkentäkker's tombstone to find a golden coin sitting in its slot, and surprised, Jacob inserts the coin into the jester's mouth, resulting in the legendary undead carnival rising from the ground. Jacob and Lisa take two shotgun's from the shooting gallery at the entrance and use them to fight through the hordes of monsters, zombies, and insects as they escape.First, Jacob and Lisa go to the "Rickety Town". There, they hop on the "Slay Ride" and battle several demonic elves, gas station workers with permanent grins, zombie fast food servers, zombies dressed as goofy dinosaurs and flying wasp-like creatures and see Betty trapped on a ferris wheel called the big bunyan ride. Finally, they battle "Krampus", a Santa Claus like monster.Jacob and Lisa then go to the "Haunted House" and battle through hordes of zombies, spiders, ghosts and bats. they notice that Betty is being chased by zombies. Jacob and Lisa enter the building and encounter Hambone, a large Jason Vorhees-like creature with a gatling gun for a hand. Jacob and Lisa defeat Hambone and proceed through the building. They find Betty being kidnapped by a Giant Spider upstairs and go after them. After going through "the hall of hands", Jacob and Lisa fight Hambone for the second time, who now has a skull grenade launcher for a hand, and is defeated once again. Jacob and Lisa go past a kitchen which is covered in blood and body parts. Then they go onto the rooftop only to be pushed off by the car into a grave with a tombstone saying "Rest in Pieces". Jacob and Lisa at last fight "Evil Marie" who, after being defeated, falls on a tombstone and bleeds out. Filling the small river with blood.Then the two visit the "Freak Show" where they encounter Conjoined Acrobatic Men, Flies and Maggots with human heads, 8 legged spider monkeys, and a giant demon called "Eye-clops", a cyclops with more than one eye. They kill the monster and enter "The Chamber of Horrors", where they find Betty in a torture device. They also must fight through hordes of zombies who are dismembered in gruesome ways. They are dumped into an underground factory where some zombies attack them. They leave to a Colosseum and fight "Junior", a Frankenstein-Like baby (or through the options menu, they can fight "Deaddy", a disfigured Teddy Bear).Then, they enter the Big Top, and fight zombie clowns, mimes, clown doctors, vampire bat-men, and demonic circus animals to reach the center ring, whence they are taken to Tökkentäkker's zeppelin to face Tökkentäkker and his jester Umlaut, along with a crew of skeletal minions.After defeating Tökkentäkker and surviving the explosion of his airship, Jacob, Lisa, and Betty awaken a few hours later in a pile of leaves in the cemetery, and in front of Tökkentäkker's tombstone. Lisa then sees the token in its slot and, ignoring Betty's protests, puts it into the jester's mouth for a repeat performance. This prompts the player(s) to play again.Gameplay[edit]CarnEvil consists of four levels, each ending with a boss fight. The first three levels can be played in any order, but the fourth cannot be accessed until all three are cleared. The players shoot enemies on the screen while progressing through amusement-park-themed horror environments. The gameplay is considerably violent and features bloody scenes throughout.Occasionally, a girl (Betty) will appear as an innocent civillain. Shooting her earns a life penalty, but does not garner any long-term consequences or changes to the game.Health and weapon power-ups can be found throughout the game. Weapons available include a machine gun, shotgun, flamethrower, acid bath gun, and an increase in the gun's magazine capacity. They can be obtained by shooting floating icons, such as a shotgun shell or a barrel of acid, and cannot be reloaded. Grabbing these power-ups also provides bonus points to the player.A software setting allows operators to replace Junior, a giant deformed baby, with a demonic teddy bear named Deaddy as the boss of the Freak Show level.Environments[edit]In Corresponding order:Rickety Town – A traditional carnival setting focusing on familiar sights such as roller coasters, a Big Bunyan Ride ferris wheel, bumper cars, flat rides, and a food court.

The wagon goes along a track leading through the mansion floors and knocks the players into an open grave.Freak Show – Boardwalk-style exhibition of the bizarre and astounding featuring a host of deformed opponents. A dungeon and torture chamber, as well as a macabre assembly line of sorts, make this stage particularly disturbing.Ludwig von Tökkentäkker's Big Top – Immense circus tent swarming with undead clowns, mimes, and circus animals. Ascending the big top allows you to reach Ludwig von Tökkentäkker's zeppelin where the final battle takes place.Characters[edit]The Good[edit]Jacob – A local teenager of Greeley Valley, Iowa. He wears a red jacket, a green t-shirt with blue jeans and carries a flashlight in his hand. After being told about the legend of CarnEvil, he takes Spooky Sam's Ghost Tour through the local Greeley Valley Cemetery to see whether the stories are true. When he sees the professor's grave, he ditches the Ghost Tour and foolishly puts the token into the mouth of the Jester Skull. As Tökkentäkker and his minions emerge from the depths of Hell, Jacob learns that CarnEvil is beyond anything the legend described and grabs a pump-action shot gun from the shooting gallery, realizing that he must either fight his way out or die in the evil amusement park. He's played as Player 1.Lisa – A closest friend of Jacob. She wears a blue crop-top jacket and a cutout purple-stripped shirt with blue jeans, a belt, a pair of gloves, a hat and carries a Zippo.

When Lisa and Jacob approach Tökkentäkker's gravestone, Jacob takes the token from its slot and foolishly inserts it into the mouth of the Jester Skull. After Carnevil awakens from a long slumber, she realizes that life or death can be the only other options for her and Jacob, so she seizes a pump-action shot gun from the shooting gallery, and goes with her friend, Jacob on the twisted adventure.

The player must defeat him before facing Tökkentäkker.Professor Ludwig von Tökkentäkker – The master of the Carnival of Evil, all of its horrors, main antagonist and final boss.

He sports a musket as well as a vanishing act, leading the players on a chase throughout his ship. He also directs a fireworks display before being knocked into his own ship's propellers. Tökkentäkker closely resembles the Insane Clown Posse Ringmaster.History of CarnEvil and Tökkentäkker[edit]Ludwig was a regular ringmaster of a carnival in the 1860s. Its said he dove into ancient texts and tomes to which led to losing his sanity. His mind, not yet completely snapped gave new design to his carnival of souls, just more disturbing and twisted beyond anyone's imagination. The tomes insanity spell began to linger onto those entertaining and working within the carnival day by day and eventually, one night, the ringmasters mind completely snapped after he was struck by an incoming lightning bolt. He rallied other workers to help him in a murder spree as "Part of the act". He took the corpses of a few disembodied people they murdered and shaped them into bizarre forms (forms that resemble the disturbing creatures of Carn-Evil). That night became their last, as a barbecue blowtorch trick went haywire and everyone within the carnival grounds burned down with the big top. Tökkentäkker, however, manages to escape the fire while his employees perish with the burning Carnival. 2 years later, the police find the former ringmaster and sentence him to death, Via Gas Chamber. The Destroyed Carnival soon becomes the Greeley Valley Cemetery, and *POOF*, all of a sudden, Autumn of 1952, Tökkentäkker's gravestone suddenly appears near the entrance, thus beginning the terrifying legend of Greeley Valley, Iowa. Trapped in limbo, the spirits of the Professor, his clowns, freaks, workers, and circus animals all get taken by the powers of evil, corruption, and undeath. Eventually; he named his formerly unnamed carnival "The Carnival of Souls", or (as it is commonly known) "CarnEvil" and legend says that if you insert the token at the base of Tökkentäkker's grave into the mouth of Umlaut (the Jester Skull perched at its top) then CarnEvil, "The Greatest Show Unearthed", will return again! Tökkentäkker enjoys seeing his guests at his park "Have Fun" with his minions, but if they do not obey him, then he will make short work of them himself. The only hope of getting out alive is to defeat Tökkentäkker himself before dawn!CarnEvil Original Soundtrack[edit]List of tracks in order. Original Score Composed by Kevin Quinn.1.

This doesn't even deserve to be moved due to that spammy sentence at the end.

So... I'll just close this.
