Yipiiie...a new (commercial) alternate reality game is out. It's "Missing" that together with a bought CD-ROM uses real time emailing and web browsing as parts of the game. As it is the case with other ARGs you have to assume another identity, so it is not a pervasive alternate reality as we saw in f.ex. "Majestic". Too bad, but I guess the genre is finding it's (less wild) balance within the game genres. If I wasn't in the middle of moving I would get the game and try it out myself. But for now I just follow along on the web (salemwitchmystery.com is f.ex. part of the game) and in different fora. CNN has an article on the game and unfiction.com will without doubt cover it a.s.a.p. Have fun! *** - | posted by Tommy on 5:28 PM ---ooo--- |
