The entire adventure is set in Venice. Instead of faithfully reproducing the city or well-known locations, the developers decided to capture the architectural style of the city: the canals and narrow streets are recognisable with their typical characteristics. One of the levels involves crossing the city and its underground tunnels on board a motorboat: one of the locations seems to be the Bridge of Fists. Then at the end of one mission, the player faces a boss inside the Colosseum(!). A bizarre mix of Italian settings.

The House of the Dead 2 belongs to a specific sub-category of shooters, known as ‘rail’ shooters: the player cannot move the character directly and decide where to go, and is limited to shooting at enemies, usually with guns. Agents James Taylor and Gary Stuart must investigate the shooting of an agent, whose last known position was in the city of Venice. When they get there, they find the city overrun with zombies and other evil creatures.
