Is the next member of Congress a werewolf?
Is the next member of Congress a werewolf? Can
you survive a lycanthrope’s bite? There’s no silver bullet for winning an
election!

Cooper, where your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based–140,000

power of your imagination.
“Democracy must be something more than two wolves
and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.” — James Bovard
When a werewolf murders your boss, you must step
up to run a Congressional campaign all on your own. While werewolves,
protestors, and worse–the media–lurk around every corner, you’ll use everything
you can to get your candidate elected.
Email servers? Tax returns? Who cares.
Election-season secrets and October surprises are nothing compared to the
possibility that your candidate might be a werewolf…or that you might become
one yourself.
a.. Play as any gender, play as gay or straight
b.. Set the right tone with your TV ads
c.. Prep your candidate for debates
d.. Impress big donors
e.. Get out the vote
f.. Find out who killed your predecessor
g.. Decide where your candidate will stand on
werewolf rights
Hosted Games has a new game for you to play!
Zombies rise again at the dawn of Apocalypse!
In this companion to the smash-hit Zombie Exodus, can you survive the first few
days of the zombie outbreak as the dead rise, society collapses, and the living
struggle to survive?
Zombie Exodus: Safe Haven is the first part of
a series of thrilling interactive survival-horror novel by Jim Dattilo, where
your choices control the story. It’s entirely text-based–without animation or
sound effects–and fueled by the vast, unstoppable power of your imagination.
Customize a character using a variety of
professions, backgrounds, special challenges, and skills to survive in a brutal
and chaotic city as the Zeta virus spreads. Will you be an honorable soldier,
searching through neighborhoods to aid survivors? Or will you be a ruthless
bandit who loots and robs others for needed supplies? How about a paranoid
hacker, psychopathic con artist, pragmatic scientist, or idealistic teenager?
Dozens of options allow you to play the character of your choice.
Set in the Zombie Exodus world, the first part
of Safe Haven focuses on the first few days of a viral outbreak which changes
the infected into mindless zombies. Explore the changes to society at the start
of the pandemic. Board your house, gather supplies, meet over a dozen other
characters, and survive encounters with the living dead and even other
survivors. Scavenge numerous locations, craft items, and use a variety of
skills to survive the many challenges of the apocalypse.
The Zombie Exodus: Safe Haven series will
continue with future stories in new locations in the coming years.
a.. Play as male or female, gay, straight, bi,
or asexual.
b.. Over 500,000 words long. You’ll read 50,000
words each time you play. Given the number of paths from beginning to end,
you’ll want to play numerous times.
c.. Nineteen backgrounds/professions including
Soldier, Teenager, Professional Wrestler, Bank Robber, and Doctor. Or create
your own custom class.
d.. Choose your skill levels in eighteen
different apocalyptic skills such as Stealth, Ranged Weapons, Scavenging, and
Survival. Level up your skills after each chapter and choose from hobbies to
round out your character.
e.. Select optional challenges for your
survivor. Take care of a dependent child or a pet, or deal with a phobia,
compulsion, addiction, or affliction.
f.. Meet other survivors each with their own
personalities, motivations, desires, and flaws. Even form romantic
relationships with those you meet.
Jim developed this game using ChoiceScript, a
simple programming language for writing multiple-choice interactive novels like
these. Writing games with ChoiceScript is easy and fun, even for authors with
no programming experience. Write your own game and Hosted Games will publish it
for you, giving you a share of the revenue your game produces.
