WARNING: THIS GAME IS FOR ADVANCED, ACTIVE, SMART AND DEVOTED PEOPLE ONLY!

This game should prove to be a new unique experience. You will NOT be answering questions, you will NOT be putting words together. In this game, you must use various forms of logic to escape the haunted house.

"But how is this possible in words? Are you mentally unstable"

No no no, let me explain.

THE BACKGROUND

In this game, there are 4 volunteers who have been captured by a mad scientist and tossed into opposite corners of a dark, mysterious house. The mad scientist is none other then, yours truly, SNN!

THE RULES

This game plays sorta like Po100T, but not really. Throughout your turns, you will move around the house (using a "scrawled map" you all happen to find on a table in your corner) interacting with your "environment" (I will give you detailed descriptions about the room you are in - don't worry, it won't be too difficult ). The main goal of the game is to, obviously, escape the house. However, only one of you can escape. Leaving the house will alert the mad scientist, and he will in turn, kill your friends. How pleasant. Be the first to find your way out of the house.

You may find various objects on the way, which may help you/hurt you, or help/hurt your comrades. (Example: You may find a key on a table that can help you get closer to the exit....or you may find a switch that causes a huge boulder to fall in front of one of your comrades, blocking them in and forcing them to find another way out) You may also find various items to bring you, such as healing herbs, mysterious potions, etc.

There are certain things you may and may not do on your turn, and they will be classified into the following do/don't chart. You may do ONE of these per turn, unless otherwise stated.

DO:
-Move to another room
-Interact with objects in the room you are in (such as "picking up" "pulling" "pushing" "crawling"...whatever is appropriate)
-Use an item.
-Unlock a door

DON'T:
-Do a mixture of above
-Do something that makes no sense at all (lol push on wall for no reason lolerz)
-Bring heavy objects with you (no, you are not allowed to carry the stool with you)
-Use your "body". NEVER use your "body" for anything (example: if a locked door is rotten and weak, you are not allowed to ram into it. Use an object, or find a key)

That about coves the do/don't list. I'm sure more will be added as the game progresses.

It is possible, in the game, that you may come across one of your comrades. In the event of this happening, you may offer trades. No, you are not going to savagely beat each other, you are "friends" remember? Help each other through the mansion, but still aim to escape first. (example of this: if you have a potion, and they have a key...you may offer a trade. It is up to them whether they accept or decline)

Each person has exactly one real life day to make a turn, or their turn is skipped. The game is already long enough, we don't need slackers

As you enter a new room, a description will be given to you about that room. Here is an example:

You have entered the ballroom. There is a door on the south and east wall. The east door is locked. Great ornate chandeliers hang from the ceiling. There is a strange looking coin in the middle of the floor

Since it is freeroaming, you can feel free to do ONE action (cannot stress this enough) in each room. You may choose to pick up the coin. You may choose to go through the south door. You may choose to unlock the east door. OR, you may want to know more info about the room.

Also, watch for traps. If you see a room like this:

You have entered the cellar. It is very dark down here. The dripping of slime can be heard all around. There is a door on the north wall, and stairs behind you. You hear a strange noise coming from the wall beside you/

Obviously, you might want to move away from that wall. For all you know, it could be a giant knife that comes flying out at your spleen.

The last thing is your health. As all humans can only withstand a certain amount of abuse before they drop dead, this will apply to this game also.....NOT! The mad scientist forced you all to drink "Torture Potions" before he locked you away, so you can never die, but can feel pain (example: if the knife from above hit you, you would be stunned for a couple turns)

I think that's all for the rules.

--------------------------------------------------

Well, that's all. I now neeed 4 ACTIVE, SMART, DEVOTED, AMBITIOUS volunteers. Once I have them, all your info you need will be posted, including a super high quality map of the mansion. Enjoy

Hey thats me .

I would be glad to join this game. It looks like it would be fun.

Question:
However, only one of you can escape. Leaving the house will alert the mad scientist, and he will in turn, kill your friends. How pleasant. Be the first to find your way out of the house.

The mad scientist forced you all to drink "Torture Potions" before he locked you away, so you can never die, but can feel pain (example: if the knife from above hit you, you would be stunned for a couple turns)

Interactive text adventures for the win

Anyway, I'd like to sign up. Unfortunately I will be leaving to move into my college dorm room this weekend and thus will have no internet access for most of next week. After that I shouldn't have any problems showing up here though.

Edit: Oh wow, I already missed signups.

The ONLY way you can die in this game, is if one person makes it out of the house.

Well, that was....extremely fast. I went to the bathroom, came back, and all the spots +2 extra were filled. I should be honoured the chief himself posted in this thread - that's a good sign

Xk and Kamek: If this goes well, I will put you two in line for the second game...

But as for now...

-----------------------------------------------

It was a dark and stormy night. A far from normal mad scientist was working on a new flavour of ice cream that would revolutionize the world forever. However, as he was brewing it up, a huge rat knocked over a beaker of green liquid onto his head....thus, turning him into a maniac.

He ran around the room insanely, knocking everything off of the walls....until he looked out his window. He froze.

4 young people, named Darkdata, Cirvante, Axel, and fabio
(note: if there is another name you wish to use, tell me next turn) were out walking by. They looked up at the mansion, and stared for a few minutes. They did not notice what the mad scientist was doing in the window.

"HAHAHAHAHA" he roared. "Look at the little children. They will make excellent toys." With that, he pulled out a stange looking laser, and fired it at them, All 4 fell to the ground unconsious.

"ROFLMAO" the scientist ... acted out. "Perfect!" He dashed down to the bottom floor, stuffed all 4 into a giant sack, and dragged them back into the castle. He threw each one into an opposite corner tower, and then retreated to his room....the location unknown at the present time.

All 4 woke up, in a daze. Where were they?


-----------------------------------------------

OOC: Would the 4 unfortunate victims, please choose a corner tower they would like to begin in now.

The bottom left is actually southwest, looking at the castle from a bird's-eye view.

Yes. It is the *scrawleed map* you will find on your tables in the towers. So it will take a couple more turns before you have a map of the house. (note: I am not going all-out Picaso on it - it will be hand drawn in Paint. After all, it's a scrawled map )

Thanks. It will probably be needed once we delve further into this house of horrors.

...as for NOW:

--------------------------------------------------

The four comrades have awakened. Darkdata in the southwest wing, Cirvante in the northeast wing, fabio in the northwest wing, and Axel in thr southeast wing. A sudden boice booms through the mansion:

"Welcome, welcome, to my lovely house. My name is S.N.N., short for Smith Norris Neanderthal. Don't be afraid too much - my house isn't like N.N.S's. His is loaded with death traps in every room ... mine is only littered with death traps OUTSIDE your rooms! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Now, I am quite bored today, so you 4 folks are now my idle playthings. Since I am in a good mood today, we will play a little game. The first person to escape the house will live. The other three will die in the most morbid ways possible. Knowing your pathetic human race, this will spark rage in all of your minds, and the need to kill off your companions. However, if you do not help each other, none of you will escape, and will be trapped in eternal torment forever."

"Inside each of your rooms is a survival kit. You have a:

-slice of moldy bread
-a poorly scrawled map
-vial of red liquid

"You may choose to take these with you, or leave them. As for now, I am going to watch you all suffer on my awesome 80" death TV! SUFFER! HAHAHAHAH!"

-------------------------------------------------

@OOC: Now that you are all fully awake, I will explain what each of your rooms look like. From there, you can choose what to do.

-------------------------------------------------

(((((DARKDATA)))))

You wake up, and find yourself in a room. There is a door on the north wall. The floor is stone, the walls are stone, the ceiling is stone. There is a table to your left. There is a moldy piece of bread, a scrawled map, and a vial of red liquid laying on it....but wait....there is something black and square under the table.

(((((CIRVANTE)))))

You wake up, and find yourself in a room. There is a door on the south wall. Everything in the room is made of wood, and it smells quite musty. There is a table in the corner, and sitting on the table are three items - a moldy piece of bread, a scrawled map, and a vial of red liquid. You too, see something black and square under the table.

(((((AXEL)))))

You wake up, and find yourself in a room. There is a door on the west wall. This room is covered in space themed wallpaper. It seems to glow eerily. There is a .....HOVERING TABLE .... in the corner, and sitting on it is a moldy piece of bread, a scrawled map, and a vial of red liquid. You too, see something black and square under the table.

(((((FABIO)))))

You wake up, and find yourself in a room. There is a door on the east wall. Everything is made of grey coloured cement. A strange chanting can be heard beyond the east door. There is a table in the corner with a moldy piece of bread, a scrawled map, and a vial of red liquid. You too, notice something black and square under the table.

USEFUL INFO: While I said you may only do one action per turn, you may pick up as many things as you like, assuming they are on the same surface. For example, you are allowed to pick up all three items this turn, but not the black square thing underneath.

Go ahead

"Uuuuhhhh... Where... Where am I?"

Cirvante wakes up, feeling extremely woozy. He takes a quick glance at his surroundings.

"What is this place? Smells musty."

"The wood here must be over 200 years old. It should be easy to break down."

He reaches for his sword, but comes up empty-handed. He realizes he had been disarmed.

"Damn. They took my sword. I should have seen that coming..."

"All right, I've had enough of this. Earth style! Rising Pillars Jutsu!"

Cirvante assumes battle stance and focuses his energy into the ground, but nothing happens.

"Strange. My powers don't work in here, either. Guess I'll have to play the doctor's little mind games for now."

Approaching the table, Cirvante takes a look at the items placed upon it: a slice of old bread, a scrawled map, and a vial of red liquid.

"Hmmm... What should I take? The vial sounds the most practical, since it's probably a health potion. Or could it be poison?"

"The map also seems like a good choice, since it can help me find the way out. So I obviously have to take it."

"Then again, the old bread could be of some use in indigesting any creature that tries to eat me. Hey, it's worth a shot, right?"

"Ah, what the hell. I'll take all three."

Cirvante takes al three items and stuffs them into his pocket.
