After playing Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger and The Terribly Cursed Emerald I got a multiplayer game idea. So what if there are two players. One inside the actual game and the other in the back stage area.
The player in the main game has to travers this house filled with traps and guards to get to the “Terribly Cursed Emerald” and escape. The game play is as intensive as the hints on the loading page shows. It is hard for the player on the “stage” to complete the game by himself.
The player on the backstage has a few of choices. He can join either join the narrator and give an experience to the player on the “stage” by making the gameplay go as the heist is going smooth. When the “stage” player reaches the “Terribly Cursed Emerald” something goes wrong and the “stage” player barely makes it out of that house.
Or the backstage player can disobey the narrator and team up with the “stage” player. He can make the heist for the “Stage” player fairly easy by messing with the back settings and escaping with the emerald together.
Or the backstage player can go chaotic by doing a set of tasks to initiate the self distrust sequence, making gameplay for both players very difficult and challenging.
It sounds like a fun experiment among friends.
