Detective Dwnaholf: “You okay in there kid…”
Protagonist: Yeah I’m fine, it’s just a little dark that’s all.
*Step* CRACK “shiiiii-“
(Pans down – Chapter Name:_________)
“…Ow!”
*looks around*
“ … “
“Well that was lucky”
“…where am I?”
“Dwanholf you there”
“… Static huh? Guess I’m on my own from now then. No surprise there”
Guess I’d better get started
TUTORIAL: Objects you can select are highlighted with a colour and a Tag – by clicking them you can interact with them.
Room 1:
Interaction options:
The Bed: “Well it’s not entirely the most comfortable bed in the world, but I am certain that it is more comfortable that that sharp pointy looking wreckage anyway.
The Sign: “Mind the Step huh? …I’ll keep that in mind”
The Door: “A door that isn’t locked? Sweet.”
Room 2:
*step*step* “huh?”
Pans to Aurora: “You took your sweet time.”
Protagonist: “Who are you?”
Aurora: “Surely you must know the rules of the game by now”
Protagonist: “You’re my Warden right?”
Aurora: “Yup” (In German: I guess you’re not as stupid as you look)
Options:
Where are we?
“Well, I would put a guess at some old prison or warehouse basement”
“Oh how do you know that?”
“Its…very Basement’y’”
“Your investigation has clearly been detailed.”
“Fine, well how would you describe this place then Mr Ace Detective?”
“…Touché”
“How would I know? I only just got here!”
“Exactly! That just makes me the expert on this place so shush”
“Fine. Basementy it is”
“….Basement’y’ also.”
“Told you so. My Spider Sense is top notch”
(Spider Sense is for detecting danger…not for investigating. Spidey would not be impressed.)
Any ideas to how we get out of here?
Well there is what I assume is the exit…
*Pans up to the big door with a Z*
P: Ah how are we going to get up there?
*walks up to it and jumps*
“I can’t reach.”
“I could have told you that.” (Idiot)
“Hey maybe one of these times this Zork guy will slip up and we won’t have to solve some kind of ludicrous puzzle”
“Well they kidnapped 10 people, built elaborate puzzles and took us all to a remote location. The chance of whomever this is screwing up something so small …Unlikely. (In German: Although looking at you, maybe you could have)”
Protagonist: Right well now I know what we have to do … Could I at least have a name to call you while we investigate this place.
Aurora: “You can call me Aurora – everyone does.”
Protagonist: “Nice Name.”
Aurora: “Ah well it’s my stage name?”
Protagonist: “Stage name?”
Aurora: “ …Anyway ‘stud’…”
(Oh the oI’ subject change, guess she’s not going to tell me anything.)
Aurora: “I don’t NEED to investigate. I can get us there.”
Protagonist: “Oh, care to share?”
Aurora: “Oh you’ll see… but there is a problem.”
*tugs on chain* (close up of chain on her arm)
Aurora: “I’m kind of tied up here.”
Protagonist: “Ah” (guess that explains her ‘basementy’ evaluation)
“Guess first order on the agenda is getting the key to the lock to get you out then”
“Yeah looks like it. Have fun. “
Investigation START!
Room 2:
Door: …There’s nothing really back there aside from junk.
Shelving: “Okay what do we have here…empty cardboard boxes, a dubious looking vase, illegible paperwork.” Hey a Magic 8 ball… ‘will we get out of here?’ …Looks unlikely ….Ouch! Hey Aurora any burning questions that you need answering?
Aurora: “Will you ever grow up?”
Protagonist: “…Ask again later”
Ladder:
Protagonist: “…”
Aurora: “Are you contemplating jumping for it AGAIN?”
Protagonist: “Uhhhh, nope just admiring the paint work.”
(I’m sure with another jump I could get it again!)
Aurora: “No you couldn’t”
!
(I swear that woman is a witch!)
Door:
Protagonist: “I’m sure this is where we’ve got to get to – what with the big Z and all. Just how to get up there …that’s the problem.”
Aurora: “What about finding the key to my lock?”
Protagonist: “Oh yeah….that too.”
Broom (without hook)
“It’s a broom. Excellent”
“You missed a Spot”
“I’m not cleaning!”
Jacket:
“It’s a rather dirty looking Jacket”
“Check the pockets”
“…”
“Found anything useful?”
“Unless we can build some kind of pocket lint structure, nope not a sausage”
Safe:
Protagonist: “Oh a safe. I wonder what is inside.”
*Four beeps*
Aurora: “Oh do you know the code?”
Protagonist: “No. I was testing how many numbers you can input. It was four.”
“Interesting. I guess you aren’t as much of a fool as I thought you were.”
(I don’t have a singular clue how to open this yet – or whether I need to open it. I’ll come back to you later.)
Workbench
Workbench shelf:
Protagonist: “Hmmm looks like some old books. Let’s have a look at some of these…
“400 different ways to put up a shelf”
“The History of the Screw: Extreme Edition”
“Theodore Phillius Wordsworth: The Life, the love and the Parties”
…seriously what is up with these books?!”
“I daren’t ask how you could put up a shelf 400 different ways”
“I know – I only know one way?”
“Oh?”
“Badly…DIY is not my forte”
“Ah, I had to do a lot of the DIY where I used to work…”
“Oh, where did you used to work?”
“Down, mind your own damn business lane in the DIY store there”
(Hey, I was only trying to be friendly)
Bench left side:
Petrol and a box of dead cigarettes, something highly flammable next to something you light…that’s just asking for trouble.
Bench Right side:
An empty bottle, a dead lamp and some tape
It’s a shame the bottles empty…
I’m pretty sure alcohol isn’t the answer to our problems
No… it’s a bottle of grape juice if you look closely. Gotta love me some grape juice especially with a good bowl of borscht…
(Hmmm while nothing here seems useful, that tape might come in handy later on)
---TAPE OBTAINED---
Workbench:
This workbench looks as if it has seen its fair share of battles over the years. Even the drawers have been forced into place and can’t be opened.
Boxes:
Two boxes covered in a sheet. Nothing to see here.
Large box
It seems to be nailed shut – and really heavy. Guess that’s a big ol’ nope on the items of interest front.
Room 2:
“Wow…I didn’t expect this kind of room”
“What does it look like?”
“…not Basementy!”
“Then I’m not interested!”
“heh…”
Bookshelf:
“Bookshelves …it’d take forever to look though this stuff. I’ll take a gander at one though …hmmm what does this say here…The Wonderful World of Goats…yeah its official – whoever lived here has a weird collection of books”
Cake:
Time has not aged this cake well…I feel ill just looking at it.
Party Hats:
*Pans up close* There are four party hats here each labelled with a name: Mike, Lynne, Nick and Kay… (Click to leave view)
“Hey I haven’t heard from you in a while…what are you doing?!”
“I’m inspecting some Party Hats!”
“What why?!”
“You Can’t Have a Party without Party Hats!”
“….”
“That shut her up.”
Candle:
“On closer inspection this candle is actually a lamp…in the shape of a candle. People buy the strangest things.”
Key: Well hello there freedom. How am I going to get to you?
Chair: You’ve seen better days my friend.
(It still looks sturdy enough to sit or stand on)
Plant: This plant looks completely devoid of life.
Decorations: Some cards are lined up on the mantelpiece. Most of the writing inside has long since worn away.
Fireplace: Looks the fire hasn’t been lit for a while. There seems to be nothing in the Soot…
Look Closer
Nope nothing…aw now my gloves are covered in soot
Ignore
Yup there is going be nothing important down there except the promise of getting messy for no reason.
Presents:
Ohh I wonder what’s in these
…
…
… Oh sweet! It’s a pirates Hook hand, I’m keeping this in a safe place!
PIRATES HOOK HAND OBTAINED
If you have examined the Key:
Chair: If I place this upright…
Aha! I can now stand on it!
*Jumps* I still can’t reach
(If only I had some kind of long object with a hook to pry it down)
If you have examined the chair:
Broom: It’s a broom. Excellent!
-Obtained Broom-
Aurora: You’ve still missed a spot.
Protagonist: Do you want me to get this key or not!
Aurora: No need to get tetchy Mr Janitor!
Protagonist: I’m a doctor so that’s Dr Jan Itor to you
Aurora: Oh you’re a doctor?
Protagonist: …
(Two can play the not saying anything game)
(If you have the broom, the tape and the hook hand in your inventory)
Right, now if I was correct *pans to black*
DONE
Nearly there…nearly there
*The key falls down when it hits the ground it turns into a ball.
Protagonist: AHHH NOOOOOO!
Aurora: What happened?!
Protagonist: Nothing!
(This Key…it was made of doughy material…)
*A piece of paper falls and hits the protagonist on the head*
Oh what is this?
-Insert Puzzle here-
Protagonist: Hmmm… some of these names sound familiar. Anyway I still have some tape so I’m going to stick this here for now
*Paper stuck onto wall*
Party Hats: “…I just noticed. I can’t pick these four party hats up.”
Safe: I’ve got a hunch…

Cuts to the protagonist unlocking the cuffs

Aurora: It’s nice to finally be free – thanks! *trust gained*
Protagonist: No problem – Party Hats and Pirate hooks are all in a day’s work for me.
Aurora: I suppose you want to know how to get up there…well I guess it’s time to work my magic. Wait here a sec.
*Cuts to animation of Aurora Jumping across the boxes and swinging across, landing on the other side*
Protagonist: Whoooah!
Aurora: Aurora wasn’t just some kind of stripper name y’know. It’s what I was known as in some Acrobat circles…
STAGE CLEAR!
