Friday 25 October 2024
It’s Spooky Season⁴ in The Sandbox, and Curse of the Manor is joining the party! For one week, we’re celebrating the spirit of Halloween with this iconic event as part of Alpha Season 4.
So, our teams are launching a new version of the immersive experience Curse of the Manor: Halloween Édition.
This new version adds a brand new area in the heart of the sinister swamps, steeped in Voodoo legends and myths. Throughout the adventure, players will meet the mysterious Baron Samedi, the fearsome lwa of the dead, and Mama Celestine, an enigmatic fortune teller, capable of predicting the worst as well as the best omens. Focus on this new and enriched version of the cult experience, which promises to delight fans of the genre.
A new graphic rendering: successful immersion!
The change in atmosphere is palpable from the moment you enter in Curse of the Manor: Halloween Édition. The improvements made to the image rendering and the lighting ambiance immediately immerse the player in a universe where the line between reality and the supernatural is erased. The soundtrack accentuates this heavy atmosphere, immersing players in an auditory experience that is as intense as it is visual.
These gloomy swamps are not just a place of passage: they conceal many secrets to uncover. Players will have to foil traps and solve puzzles while venturing deeper into this hostile territory.
Each detour can reveal a macabre surprise or a significant encounter, notably with Baron Samedi, an emblematic figure of voodoo folklore, and Mama Célestine, whose prophecies leave doubts about what will happen next.
Meet the Baron and the Mysterious Seer
This version of the experience adds two new characters:
Baron Samedi
Representing one of the most feared spirits in Voodoo culture, Baron Samedi watches over the world of the dead.
In Curse of the Manor: Halloween Edition, he emerges as a charismatic and ominous figure, offering quests to players who dare cross his path. His presence is both intimidating and fascinating, and his challenges involve moral choices that can influence the course of the experience.
Mama Célestine
For her part, Mama Celestine adds a touch of mystery and wisdom to this dark universe.
This fortune teller lives withdrawn in the heart of the swamps, where she practices her divinatory arts. Her predictions, sometimes cryptic, can help players navigate through the dangers of the region, but they can also sow doubt and fear. Players will have to interpret her words with caution, because her advice can lead to unexpected, even perilous, paths.
An improved experience for all players
Curse of the Manor: Halloween Édition not only adds new characters and settings, it also enriches the original experience with redesigned game mechanics to offer an even deeper immersion. The quest system has been expanded, integrating new missions centered on voodoo culture, its rituals and its mysteries. Players will have to find cursed coins for example, to gain the trust of Baron Samedi and access Mama Celestine’s lair.
At the same time, the gameplay adapts to the dark and mysterious atmosphere of the swamps. For example, players will have to navigate through areas shrouded in fog, where reduced visibility makes each move more distressing. This constant tension contributes to making this Halloween edition a unique experience, where every moment is filled with suspense.
A Halloween edition that will leave its mark
Curse of the Manor: Halloween Édition on The Sandbox stands out for its ability to reinvent the original experience while integrating exciting new elements. The swamps, Baron Samedi, Mama Celestine and voodoo rites immerse players in a new atmosphere, where every moment is full of mystery and chills.
For those looking for an unforgettable metaverse experience to live during the Halloween season, this new edition of Curse of the Manor is an invitation to lose yourself in a world where imagination and fantasy mix with darkness.
