"I would like, if I may, to take you on a strange journey." 2025 is the year of the 50th anniversary of the single longest running movie in history, the rock-n-roll musical horror comedy The Rocky Horror Picture Show. So what better time to check out a strange curiosity that I found on Steam a year ago. Funnily enough, this isn't the first attempt to turn Rocky Horror into a video game. There was one in the 80s on the Commodore 64 and every UK PC platform, and a digitized spiritual successor loaded with FMVs released in 1999. This endeavor, however, is a side-scrolling platformer by the same studio behind the developers of the Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures. Technically these game aren't based on the movie, but rather the stage play that it's based on, The Rocky Horror Show. To the point where a lot of dialogue is lifted directly from the play that was never in the film.but that's besides the point. In this game, you play as newlyweds Brad Majors and Janet Weiss, a newly engaged couple whose car breaks down on their way to visit their old science teacher Dr. Everett Vn Scott (who you also play as later in the game). With their car broken down, the newlyweds travel to the castle of the crossdressing mad scientist Dr. Frank N. Furter. From my experience with this game, it does a decent job at evoking what it would be like if LJN attempted making a game that adapts the plot of the movie/play, with a lot of liberties taken and without the unfair ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ found in bad NES games of the era. Unfortunately they did keep the stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ difficulty such as the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ skulls that I hate and the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ brains that I hate. The game eases you in with some simple platforming challenges, but then it kicks you square in the balls with the Eddie fight in the deep freeze where not only do you have to just dodge him while he charges at you, but at the end of the fight Frank N Furter comes down with an axe to chop him up, and he can hurt you as well. To balance out the difficulty that really drives you insane, you have infinite lives and checkpoints are plentiful, so when you get past one stupid hard section you won't have to deal with it anymore. The funny thing is that my second runthrough of the game was far less painful, namely because I knew what to expect, and I beat Eddie on my first try. All of the other boss fights took maybe 1 or 2 attempts on each run. Some boss fights are kind of contrived, like fighting Riff Raff as Brad when he's out to kill Frank, not Brad, but I guess that's what happens when a movie as un-conducive to a video game as this is adapted. Overall this is a fine game, but I wouldn't really recommend it to those that haven't seen the film.

Witty platformer that doesn't overstay it's welcome. You can play the game with the keyboard, but the menu requires a mouse. It's much easier to play on a controller. Overall, The Rocky Horror Show Video Game is quite good. The Super Mario Bros. 2 inspired gameplay and somewhat purposeful jank controls fit the 8-bit aesthetic as do the excellent chiptune renditions of everyone's Rocky Horror numbers from the show. For this price, it's hard to complain about the length. The Halloween update, among other things, added achievements (some obvious, some obscure, all cute) and enhanced the cutscenes with some nice close-ups.
Brilliant game for fans - absolutely loved it, takes just over an hour to complete so very short but well worth the price if your a huge fan!
As a Rocky Horror Show fan I had to play this. I was not disappointed at all. The pixel 2D style is perfect considering the age of the stage show and movie, The platforming gameplay really took me back to growing up playing similar titles on my Atari 800xl computer. Like many of those titles back then this game gave me a few challenges along the way. Definitely had that frustratingly fun feel to it at times. Fans of the stage show and movie will absolutely love the attention to detail this game gives to the source material, with minor changes to suit the gameplay here and there as expected. The retro style of graphics and music from the show are fantastically done. I definitely plan to play through this again and record myself doing so for Youtube/Twitch. My only gripe, if i had to search deep for one, was that I'd have personally liked to have seen an intro part that included the movies opening church scenes and the engagement of Brad and Janet. As I say though, thats a minor gripe of an otherwise awesome game. Highly recommend it!
A fun retro styled game based a cult classic. It's very enjoyable. The game is short (about 90 minutes) but has some challenging sections in it. Nothing overly difficult. I highly recommend this to fans.
A fun short retro styled platformer for Rocky Horror fans.
I love this little game, it made me angry but also made me insanely happy. I would recommend this for any fan of the show but keep in mind that this is a game that will make you angry. I can also confirm that the newer update including New Game+ (i'm very late to the update) is really cool and I'm a huge fan.
This is a fun game for any fan of Rocky Horror! The 8-bit retro feel of the game compliments the retro vibe of the movie/play. Obviously has a great soundtrack. It's great how loyal it is to the story and characters. Would be fun to have set up at a Halloween party, so people can randomly pick up a controller and start playing. It's challenging, but not so difficult that you stop playing. Totally recommend!
If you love the Rocky Horror Show and Retro games, this game is absolutely for you. It's a simplistic action platformer that offers enough challenge, but doesn't make you want to pull your hair out. The sprites and areas are colorful and well designed. The real beauty of this game is the audio. 8-bit versions of all the songs from Rocky Horror so well done. I especially love the opening song which is kind of crossed with Science Fiction, Double Feature, and the opening to the Legend of Zelda theme. The big con for me on the game was that there is really no replayability. Pretty much once you beat the game once, you never really need to again. To my knowledge and understanding, there are no hidden areas, pathways, endings, etc. It's really kind of a one and done. That being said, I had a great time and absolutely think it's worth the money. Official Legiondary Rating Scale Rating: 74/100 (See breakdown and explanations below) Visuals: 15/20 Atmosphere: 15/20 Audio: 19/20 Gameplay: 15/20 Fun: 10/20 I rate all my games on a scale from 1-100, broken down into 5 categories, each category worth 20 points: Visuals - What's the game look like? I take out system limitations as I play alot of retro games normally. I just appreciate (or not) the visuals for what they were for the time period they came out, or for what they were trying to accomplish. Atmosphere - Story, World, etc. How well does the game keep me tuned into it. I stream most games so how easily am I distracted from it has alot of effect as well. Audio - Music and Sound Effects. I feel like this is an easy one. Like visuals, I try to appreciate them for the time period. Gameplay - How does it control? Are there too many buttons? Too few? Also, how difficult is the game? Does it ramp up too hard? Fun - FUN FACTOR! How much fun did I have with the game and would I play through it again? Is there reasons to play through it again?
never thought my cause of death would be dr. frank n furter whipping me too hard but here we are. no, but seriously. it's a fun little game which turned out to be a lot more challenging than i expected but that's most likely due to my lack of experience with platformers. the 8-bit soundtrack is perfect and i love how true the game was to the source material. such a beautiful tribute to one of my all time favorite musicals <3
