ROUND 2 TDM
TEST DRIVE MEME
This is the test drive meme for The Resort. Feel free to use this to voicetest, gather samples for your potential app, or just have fun in the setting! Reserves open on November 9th. Hit up our Round FAQ with any other questions.
Feel free to come up with your own scenarios as well! This is just a sampling of scenarios that may come up during gameplay.
1. MORNING WAKEUP CALL
You wake up with a start in a hotel room - one with a single bed and it's own bathroom - due to the buzzing of an alarm on a Tablet by the bedside. You're in the clothes you last remember being in, but you sure as hell don't remember checking into a hotel or resort for the night...
There's a message from 'Resort Staff' after you manage to turn off the horrible noise, letting you know there's breakfast for all of the guests down at the Restaurant.
It's 7am, but if you don't ignore it and go back to sleep, there's a continental breakfast buffet spread out at the Restaurant, just like they said there would be. It's all free of charge, too...which is good, because you certainly didn't pay to come here. Maybe getting some breakfast first before demanding to see the management is a good idea - and you can also find out who else got brought here against their will, too.
2. RESORT EXPLORING
So, after your meal (or just more sleep), you're bright eyed, bushy tailed, ready to take on the day and find out what the hell is going on. However, the Staff is all cheerful but evasive, saying that you signed in last night, and even helpfully showing you your signature in their guestbook. And while you know that's a crock of bullshit, they're very insistent that you're here for a week stay...
If you decide to check the Resort out, you'll quickly find that the upper floors are currently undergoing maintenance. But, there's a Ski shop nearby - which isn't surprising, considering that the outdoor courtyard is snowed in. There's also an indoor pool and an outdoor Jacuzzi in case you want to soak in style! And there's a bathing suit in your room, along with a change of clothing...
There's also plenty of empty or unused rooms, oddly enough. Though the strangest thing about this entire hotel is all of the rats. They're all clean, tame, and friendly - but it's downright odd to see a bunch of multi-colored rats skittering about either in special sectioned off areas for them, or up in tubes on the walls, much like a really elaborate hamster run. If you decide to go near them in a sectioned off area, they'll happily just hang out with you doing rat things. Huh. And as long as you're friendly with them, nothing seems to happen. But if you're unfriendly...?
Well. Maybe some things are better left untried.
3. SKI TIME
So you've explored the hotel and seen all the sights you could. Now you're ready to brave the slopes with whatever equipment you took from the Ski shop (all free of charge, again), and have some FUN! Or just see what the outside is like in this weird place you found yourself in, either or. It's cold, but not too cold - and the snow outside is perfect for skiing and sledding. There are three slopes, all ranging from bunny to advanced, and there's even a Ski lift for you to get up there on! If you don't want to go on the slopes, there are some smaller hills to sled down on.
3-A. SKI.....TIME...?
It happens before you can even realize it. You're having a grand old time down on one of the slopes, going at a high speed, wind in your hair and the snowy landscape whizzing by you. It's perfect, except -
- hang on -
What the fuck is that?!
You manage to dodge it in time, but it simply follows after you at a high rate of speed, scraggly arms and legs flailing as it skitters across the snow. Out of the corner of your eye, you see an unlucky skiier get eaten in a single gulp, the horrifying creature barely stopping before beginning to chase you again.
It seems you'll have to ski for your life.
4. FOREST BREAKOUT
Alright, you're done with Skiing and this weird-ass Resort. It's time to brave the wilderness and get the hell out of this place. As you go into the forest, for a while, it's just you and the snow... But then it gets darker. And darker. And there's no end to the forest itself...
You hear whispers. Wolves growl and snarl in your ears, the trees - are they moving? Has a dense fog settled in, making it hard to tell where you're going? Why...why is there another set of footprints in the snow next to you? Your ears are ringing, your head hurts, y̝ơ͍̻̲̥̟u'̰͈̯̞̖̪͜v͙͚̙̘̲̝̖͢e̖̲̟̟̮̯ ̖̙͟m̗͙͍̙͢a̷̬̹̠̬d̡̼͙̳̭ͅe͏̱ ̖͔̠̭̺̬͝ͅá̯̪ ̹̻̠͖m̥̜̫̤̯i̘̲͈̼̮s̼̙͔͎̠̦̘t̪͠á͇̣̫͎̜̻k̫͎̠̫̦̻é̯-͓͍͘
And then you wake up on one of the hotel couches in the lobby, with a Staff Member smiling indulgently over you with a cup of hot cocoa in their hands, going on about how you just came right in and took a nap.
Hm.
5. RESORT MURDER
Somehow, you knew it was going to get worse. And when one of your fellow Guests end up dead, that just cemented it for you. Someone has been killed - in a horrible way - and now you have to suspect each other. Will you check out the body? Mourn for the dead? Or lay a critical eye on your fellow Guests, watching each of them carefully for any sign of Otherness? That person in the corner of the room - did their neck just bulge unnaturally a little? Are those fangs shining in that person's mouth? What about the people in the rooms next to yours? Don't you think they talk a little weirdly, move just a little unnaturally?
Will you do something about it, before they get you?
no subject
He might. In which case, lunch will be on me.
[because in the movie the rat controlled the human to cook, right. . . get it. get it!1]
no subject
[ She understood what she meant, but look, it's a not an animated cartoon rat, it's an actual one. ]
no subject
[get it. . .]
[he hopes lunch isn't literally on him]
[because if it was he'd have food all over his clothes]
[it's a joke]
[APPRECIATE HIS JOKE]
no subject
She has no one to blame but herself for this, but she doesn't really mind the stupid banter sometimes. ]
If that happens. Guess you'll die.
no subject
[shrugs his shoulders and holds out his hand]
[in a stunningly accurate recreation of]
[
no subject
Just rests a hand under her chin, almost as if she's deep in thought. She then opens her mouth, as if to say something serious-- ]
Ten out of ten recreation. I'm sure your new mouse friend enjoyed that, too.
no subject
Awesome. Perfect score. I've never been happier.
[he says completely blandly]
no subject
That is the fakest happiness that I've ever seen in my whole life if I've ever saw one. So does rat boy have a name?
no subject
no subject
no subject
[jerks a thumb towards the rat on his head]
And this guy is I'm-not-sure.
no subject
And Kurusu, I guess.
[ Because apparently the rat is more important here, clearly? ] I'm Inaba Himeko, by the way.
no subject
Inaba-san.
[nods at her in a polite greeting]
Nice to meet you, too.
[circumstances aside]
no subject
[ Considering everything prior to that greeting. ]
no subject
[adjusting his glasses]
Maybe I just like to subvert expectations.
no subject
[ She is, however, going to make a face when he suddenly adjusts his glasses like that. ]
But I'll remember that.
no subject
Might as well. Who knows how long we'll be here?
no subject
Hopefully the answer to that is "less than two days" because I have school to get back to.
no subject
Got exams coming up, or something?
