Hello, guys, this is Dyne. I am playing a game called Kraven Manor.
I saw this game mentioned on
Rock Paper Shotgun, and thought
I'd check it out and see what's goin' on.
I have not played it at all ... I've never played it at all.
um... it is daytime here -- I do know it's a horror game -- it's daytime here, but
since this is my sleeping time, this is basically late night for me.
So, we'll see if it's spooky.
Alright,
let's see here.
I guess ... let me look at the controls first
Yeah, yeah. Look...
E is activate. That's throw... Can I configure it ... No. Alright. OK here we go.
This is a student game by The Guildhall at Southern Methodist University.
It's puzzle
slash survival horror,
and it has an interesting mechanic of
rearranging the building.
Right, E or left mouse button. OK...
when the magnifying glass appears. OK...
K.M.
Alright...
It's already kinda creepy.
Ah, Castaldy.
"Ways of
Addecimate",
"Castaldy of Kraven Manor", and other strange books clutter these shelves.
Those *are* strange books. Old telephone.
Why do I keep hearing shocking sounds, I wonder?
I'm not doing a very good job of throwing, am I?
Alright, let's check these out.
(reading) "Initially I lamented that the rituals of October were failures.
"However, months later I turned my back to a statue I though hollow and dead,
"and the spirit within made itself known."
K. M.
Kraven Manor. Alright.
Checking things out.
(reading) A threatening sounding memo from William Kraven addressed to a contractor
"Subject: Structures must be built exactly to specifications."
I would assume this is where the token (ornament) goes.
Ancient books.
Esoteric topics of Neether-
er, Nethermancy
Elementals, and Alchemy.
Interesting.
Sooooo...
I wonder, what has
gone on here.
I'm liking the mood.
Am I supposed to be, like
breaking something? Guess not. Alright,
let's go check out this door. Locked.
Aaaaa!
Ahhhh!
You stay there.
Stop watching me.
(Reading) "For whosoever do not in the truth
"boasting of phantasms,
'brag that they can do miracles, be destined to the torments of eternal fire." Right.
Whatever that means.
(Reading) "Rejecting the music of the spheres as the movement of astronomical bodies are incapable of"
"generating sound." Mm, makes sense.
(Singing) Check out the creepy liiiibrary. Ohp!
(Reading) A newspaper clipping
describing a missing teenager named Marjorie... Hedgepeth.
There's a shiny over here.
Paradise Lost.
Yes, I know what Paradise Lost is.
I thought this was one of the statues.
What is this stream of
fog coming through here? Is it telling me to go in a particular
direction?
I'd like to do something with that, but I don't know how to
take it.
Anything up here? Maybe? Just gonna keep looking
this way.
It's like a Weeping Angel.
(reading) "An elaborate scale model of a grand manor with many rooms and tiny furniture.
"The aged hands of an older man
"appear in the image, making adjustments to the model."
I'm going to assume that's what's in this case down here.
Oh, that's not ... anything different.
Is it locked? Yes.
The window is broken.
Just keeeep looking that direction.
Brrrrrrr.
Ok, so...
Not much I can
do up here- hey. HEY!
I see you turning.
Aha! Whenever Line-of-Sight is broken.
Alright, well, we'll have to go in here, then.
Figure out what's going on in here.
Ph, the fireplace is glowing.
(Reading) "The heat does not reach far into this cold room, and is less than comforting.
"This house is supposed to be abandoned, yet *something* started the fire."
... and it wasn't me. Alright. Go this way.
Wine Cellar model! Ooh.
What happened there? You're right...
... no *human being* would stack books like this.
Weird. Weird ... WEEIIRRDD!
(Squeak) What was that? (Shatter) (Chattering) Uhhhh
OK, interesting.
F! Flashlight. Uh-oh.
It's gone.
That's not good.
