Game Description

Based on the popular horror movie series, A Nightmare on Elm Street lets you and up to three friends become Dream Warriors as you attempt to end one of horror's most fearsome icons, Freddy Krueger, as he efforts to destroy the teens of Elm Street in their sleep.

Your overall goal is to collect Freddy's bones and throw them into the furnace to terminate the gloved one's terror forever. As you walk up and down the street searching for items in a conscious state, you will have to prepare for creatures of the night to impede your progress.

If you or any of the Dream Warriors should fall asleep, which can be avoided by collecting certain items or constant movement, everyone will be transported to the Dream World to face Freddy at his most unbeatable strength. So, gather your own greater abilities as a ninja, an acrobat, or a necromancer. If you use your powers effectively, you just may defeat Freddy and no one will ever have to worry about having another A Nightmare on Elm Street. ~ Christopher Michael Baker, All Game Guide
