Gahan Wilson's The Ultimate Haunted House

mrdav — Mon, 13 Oct 2014 10:13:50 +0000

You have been locked in the haunted house and you have 13 hours to escape, and the only way you can escape is by collecting all 13 keys, or you will be trapped in the house forever. You must explore all the rooms, and meet monsters, and give them 1 of 50 items in exchange for them to leave you alone. Explore the house and have fun in the games room, but make sure no monsters catch up with you and give you curses. There are lots of curses such as the color curse where all the colors get mixed up, and the objects curse where you can't pick up any objects. (MobyGames)

Our eyes have to resort to incredibly sophisticated trickery to accomplish their task. As is pointed out in the introductory section, the retina of the eye--onto which the images we "see" are projected--is a two dimensional surface. The brain has to take these images from each eye and blend them in a way that will produce a perception of the world that has space and depth, as well as color and motion.

Robot City

Thu — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 07:50:35 +0000

The story of the game closely follows Robot City, a series of novels inspired by Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics.

In the vein of Myst and other graphic adventure games from the time, Robot City features a first-person perspective. The player must click to move around Robot City and interact with the 3-D environment. A conversation system allows the reader to pick between a number of topics to talk about, and the player's choices can have significant in-game consequences. The game has multiple endings which also depend on the player's actions.

Fahrenheit 451

It was a pleasure to burn.
- First line of the book

Rather than an adaptation, this is a sequel to Bradbury's novel. Five years after Guy Montag turned on them, the book-burners have only tightened their grip on America. The underground assigns Guy to infiltrate a New York library where banned literature is stockpiled for destruction. Doing so will require him to make contact with the local resistance and acquire the means to mask his identity.
