Hotel 626: Freak Yourself Out

Be afraid! This is hands down the best immersive, online, fictional game thingy we have seen yet. Like, ever. It maxes out on the use of interactive gimmicks which – when you think about it – seem like obvious tools for non-linear drama. We’re talking web-cam (to make sure you are playing in the dark! And for chilling / thrilling visual tricks), mic (for super-creepy vocal interactivity), cell phone, and such-like to create a frenzied, nightmarish trip through the haunted hotel, cleverly customized to freak YOU the hell out. It’s a gripping ride and a super-fun challenge peppered with visual shockers. FYI the patience-testing login process and upload time are totes worth it.
