Rule of Rose is a survival horror game for the PlayStation 2 developed by Punchline and published by Atlus in 2006. It has often been compared with other similar survival horror gaming series such as Silent Hill and Clock Tower, due to the psychological horror elements used throughout, and its distorted storyline. It is also compared to the one-shot game, Haunting Ground due to the use of a canine companion for the main character.
Set in 1930, Cardington, Bedfordshire, England, a few years before the second World War broke out, the game tells the story of a teenage girl named Jennifer as she is forced to work for the Red Crayon Aristocrat Club: an unruly, cruel society formed by the children of the Rose Garden Orphanage.
