How To Play

Your friends have lured you for a ‘fun night out’ at the old Southern State Penitentiary that’s been known as the Ghostly Gaol as long as anyone can remember. They host weekly Ghost Tours that are rated 5 stars and even though you don’t believe in supernatural events, you have an instant bad feeling about this outing. The gray and grim structure was once home to the State’s most disturbed criminals and allegedly thousands of prisoners died inside. The restless spirits wander the empty corridors and some visitors claim to have heard voices and seen objects move and doors being slammed. Your tour guide, a pocket sized chirpy lady called Roxy insists that the ghosts love all tour guides and their guests and assures everyone’s safety. As you gather in small groups, Roxy promises to deliver a spine trembling and hair raising tour in one of the world’s most haunted prisons.
Make sure you have the latest update for your Second Life viewer of choice, and enable “Shared Environment” for the best game experience!

Tips, Tricks and Warnings!

Please give the HUD and the game surroundings time to load. There is a lot going on! That will help you see things better so you can avoid walking into walls or bumping into other players.

Please understand that by making certain decisions in the game, you can die. Dying means you will be teleported out of the game and need to start again. There is no time limit in the game so please take your time and think about your choices.

IMPORTANT: If you “DIE” in the game you will need to remove your HUD and reattach it to play the game again.

Double-click teleporting or direct teleporting is not allowed during the game. This will ‘kill’ you and you have to start the game from the beginning. We strongly recommend disabling double-click teleport under Preferences while playing this game.

For fullest immersion be sure to enable sounds, setting them at a comfortable level. Ensure you are set to Shared Environments for the best lighting and effects. Removing your AO will give the best results with any animated parts of the game.

The puzzles may be challenging, so take it slow and enjoy! Also, make sure to pay attention to nearby chat for instructions and clues/hints. Keep a paper and pen/pencil close to keep notes, they will come in handy!

Don’t forget you can ask other players for help in Group Chat. Please enquire in general terms so no spoilers are disclosed to other Peas!
