Stretch Panic, or Freak Out in Europe, or Hippa Linda in Japan, is what happens when Treasure decides to make a game out of a tech demo, then shovel as much crazy into it as possible. The game is about a little girl named Linda, who gets bossed around by her 12 older sisters since she's the only one who doesn't spend every waking moment obsessing over her appearance. What kicks off the game is the sisters receiving a mysterious package that promises to make them into their ideal image or something along those lines. Beauty obsessed as they are, they happily damn their souls and get sucked into Hell to be transformed into exactly what was promised. Luckily, Linda just happened to arrive in time to get sucked into Hell as well, but not before her cherished scarf gets possessed, because the scarf is the only thing in the world in which Linda actually has any pride on. Now, with her scarf as her only source of protection, she'll have to exorcise the demons possessing her sisters.Besides a few levels to fill up on the points you need to access the bosses, that's all there really is to this game, sadly. So, how do you fight them, you ask? Why, by using the scarf to pull on them, or building up enough tension to propel yourself at them like a human rocket. The scarf is also the only way you can really get around, since Linda can't really do much but move around so the scarf can do its thing. Enemies besides her sisters include various demons and women with gigantic breasts, as well as any Mooks the bosses accompany.

Superpowered Evil Side: All the sisters Linda has to save. But Siren's boss fight revolves around this. Preventing it causes serious damage.

A Winner Is You: Despite having an intro cutscene, the game doesn't really have much of an ending. After beating the last boss and leaving the museum, it just cuts to the credits, with Linda and her sisters walking along.

More than Mind Control
 Stretch Panic (Video Game) / int_28e90e30
comment
More than Mind Control: Demonically possessed or not, the sisters still seem to have much of their original personality intact, and continue to act autonomously even when you've pulled the demon out of them. It's possible that they weren't possessed in the traditional sense so much as corrupted by their own vanity.

The Unfought: Despite being the main villains, you never actually directly fight or confront the Demons of Vanity. The most you get is exorcising them from the sisters.

Long Song, Short Scene
 Stretch Panic (Video Game) / int_4cefd8a6
comment
Long Song, Short Scene: "Reprise" is a nice, surprisingly touching song that plays at the end of the game after beating Spirit (or whichever sister you beat last). The thing is, it only plays for as long as you stay in the museum lobby, and at that point there's nothing to do there except leave, which only takes a few seconds.

The Un-Reveal
 Stretch Panic (Video Game) / int_5a3b8032
comment
The Unreveal: Demonica, in her boss fight, is virtually never shown in the light. This is purposefully enforced because you must defeat her while preventing her from entering the room as, according to the manual, just looking at her is fatal thanks to her implied transformed appearance.

Boss Game: The game consists primarily of a Hub Level with a Save Point, and doors leading directly to whatever bosses the player must defeat. There are also a few "EX" levels that are populated exclusively by Mooks, which the player can defeat for Points to unlock the doors to each boss.

Difficulty by Region
 Stretch Panic (Video Game) / int_83edb5ab
comment
Difficulty by Region: While not terribly harder in the Japanese version, Bonitas, on whom you can score a critical hit rather easily twice for a point each time, are rather rare, with most in the level replaced by floating demon head monsters that have to be torpedoed into in order to critical and only take one of these, making point collection a little harder. Otherwise, it's more or less the same.

comment
Wake-Up Call Boss: At least one for each of the first two sets. Siren has no direct weak spots, only taking heavy damage when you pull her mooks away and her transformation fails. Samantha can receive heavy damage at only one point during one particular attack and you'll certainly miss your chance if you let her hit you or take too long to hit her weak point.
