Stretch Panic was notable for being Treasure's first 3D game. It was released for the PlayStation 2 in 2001. It had some fairly unique game play elements, primarily the ability for the main character (Linda) to stretch, pinch and bend objects and opponents with a scarf. You play the role of Linda as she sets out to rescue her twelve sisters who are possessed by demons.
I never really played this game. It received mixed reviews with a very positive one featured above in GameGo! magazine. Electronic Gaming Monthly on the other hand only gave it 4.9/10 stars. I would tend to trust the EGM review though I'm still a little bitter about that fact that GameGo! took my subscription money and then never published another issue.
There weren't any sequels or remakes of this game that I am aware of but fortunately, used copies are reasonably priced. This doesn't seem to be a particularly rare game. For Treasure fans it might be worthwhile to track down a copy if you don't already have one but for everyone else, maybe try it on an emulator if you can before you buy.
