Riverhillsoft (リバーヒルソフト, Ribāhiru Sofuto) was a Japanese video game manufacturer in operation from 1982 to 2000. They had notable releases for platforms such as the MSX, LaserActive, 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, PlayStation, Dreamcast, Game Gear, and PC-FX.
This is a Spanish translation for the 3DO game Doctor Hauzer. The patch can be applied to the original iso file using programs such as xdeltaui.
History[edit]
The company was initially known for the successful J.B. Harold Murder Club series of murder mystery adventure games, developed from 1986 onwards. They were initially released as computer games and later ported to the PC Engine CDconsole, Nintendo Family Computer, Nintendo DShandheld, and iOSmobile.
Riverhillsoft also published Prince of Persia, which initially failed in North America, in Japan. Their ports to the Japanese NEC PC-9801 and PC Engine CD platforms featured improved graphics (introducing the Prince's classic 'turban and vest' appearance) and a new Red Bookaudio soundtrack. They also ported it to other computers and video game consoles, helping the game become a worldwide success.[1]
Riverhillsoft were later known for several early survival horror games. These include the 1994 game Doctor Hauzer and the OverBlood series. Their final release was the strategy video gameWorld Neverland Plus: Orurudo Oukoku Monogatari for the Dreamcast in 1999.[2][3]
Following layoffs in 2000, the company turned its focus on mobile gaming, which proved unsuccessful. In June 2004, it filed for bankruptcy and the majority of its employees left to form a new company, called Althi, Inc., absorbing Riverhillsoft.

Originally released only in Japan for the 3DO, Doctor Hauzer could easily be described as a rip-off of 'Alone in the Dark' (especially when you consider the other, more well known title from the developer was 'Overblood' which was mostly sci-fi Resident Evil....but a bit poo poo). In reality though, it may share some superficial similarities to AitD it's actually very much it's own streamlined experience. The story revolves around Adam, a jerk reporter who hangs out with an anti-social archaeologist and writes what I assume are amazing articles about the doctor being a massive poo poo heel. But one day the ol' doc goes missing and it's up to Adam to find out what happened to his golden goose (which fits cause geese are dicks). To find Hauzer though, we first must navigate his home of horrors and face the many tribulations that lay within it's walls.
Thankfully with the availability of emulation and the fact that the game was recently fan translated, you too can experience this game for yourself if you wish. The translation is available here: http://3do.cdinteractive.co.uk/view...php?f=21&t=3720
