How it begins
Black and orange. You are obsessed and haunted by these colors. Here's why:
You might be anyone, carrying a map and wearing your rucksack. At the north edge of the woods, an old man warns you and your two traveling companions, Frank and Alice, about a small flying terror that lurks in these trees and kills at random.
You blink. The old man is gone. Frank and Alice head south into the woods.
Notable features
- The game is a parody/homage of the movie The Blair Witch Project.
- Linear geography, tied to the plot. That is, the plot advances as you travel. All room connections are one-way; there's no backtracking.
- There's both a winning and a losing ending.
