"The House of the Dead" Trivia Quiz

Answer: Rogan & G

Player 1 takes the role of Thomas Rogan, the eager and determined one whose fiancee, Sophie, is missing in the mansion, and player 2 takes the role of G, who's rather memorable due to his funny name. G is cold, calculating and clever, and the second game reveals him as the one who discovered all the bosses' weak points.

Answer: Curien

You don't see him until before the third boss fight, but Sophie mentions him in the cutscene after defeating the first boss. He is eventually killed by the final boss, who disliked the idea of following Curien's command.

Answer: 27

It's interesting to note that all the bosses in the game and its sequels are named after tarot cards. Chariot is the boss of Chapter 1, and appears as an armoured brute wielding a halberd. His weak point is a small hole in the armour, exposing his heart, and once brought down to a quarter of his health, he will break out of his armour and reveal himself as a large pink zombie.

At this point, the player can shoot him anywhere until he is dead. Chariot also appears as a mini-boss in Chapter 4.

Answer: False

He has three; left bicep, left thigh and right shin. They could be summarized as the three parts that aren't covered by armour, and continuously beat red and black. The game states that his weak point is unknown however, leaving the player to figure out what it is for themselves, though in his return in "House of the Dead 2", Magician's weak points are noted in G's files because he and Rogan had already discovered them and defeated him by then.

Answer: Unknown

It is unknown, though those who have played the third game know the ending where she survives is the true one because Rogan has a daughter. Judging by the information given in "House of the Dead 1" however, it is unknown due to the three different endings.

The main ending doesn't show anything special. The bad ending depicts Sophie as a zombie, showing that Chariot and Hangedman's wounds had killed her. A gunshot is heard in the background when the final screen is shown. To get the bad ending, the player must have a rank lower than the special rank, and their score must end with a 0.

The final canon ending shows Sophie emerging from the mansion alive and well, which is achievable by getting the special ranking.

Answer: Hangedman

All the bosses in the game are named after tarot cards. Hangedman is the boss of Chapter 2, but is seen briefly in Chapter 1 flying away with Sophie and threatening the agents. Hangedman doesn't have a certain weak point, but he does have a swarm of smaller bats to command.

He will first send the bats after the player until they are either all dead or he loses half of his health. After that, Hangedman will fight the player himself. Hangedman and his bats are also confronted again as a mini-boss in Chapter 4, but this time he only has half the amount of health he has compared to the first time the players confront him.

Answer: Hermit

Hermit is the boss of Chapter 3. He appears as a large spider with a green body and a pink face. His weak point is his face, which he will occasionally block with his two front legs. Hermit also shoots balls of web at the players, but initial causes damage by crawling close and slashing them with his legs.

Answer: 0

Unlike the others, he didn't have a prototype because he was one of Curien's "masterpieces", which might explain why he's a bit disobedient. Magician appears as a tall slim armoured humanoid creature with his three weak points beating red. He flies very fast and throws fireballs at the players, and later launches multiple fireballs into the air, leaving them to descend slowly towards the players.

Answer: Top

Note I asked for the second highest, not highest. Special is the highest, followed by Top. Then it's Expert, then Master. The lower ranks are Average, Standard, then Rookie.

Answer: Two-handed sword

None of the zombies in "House of the Dead 1" use a two-handed sword (zweihander); that's "House of the Dead 2". Enemies throughout the game throw barrels at you, though it is a one-use-only weapon. It isn't until Chapter 3 where you fight enemies with wrecking balls and energy blades.
