H3ist ARG Wrap-Up And Review

Posted by Zonk on from the alternate-reality-this dept.

The Alternate Reality Gaming Network has an examination of the ARG H3ist, which recently completed its run. The Audi sponsored alternate reality title went off, generally speaking, very well. From the article: "Overall, The Art of the H3ist has to be considered one of the giants of the ARG genre. The richness of the story, the depth of background, the amazing live interactions and the masterful puzzles all played a role in making this a must-play game."

    Great, I can hardly wait to play.

    D'oh!

    Timeliness people, c'mon! I really don't much desire to read about how fun some game was that it's impossible for me to play, but I would have liked very much to have heard about it before/as it started.

      Then I suggest you sign up at ARGN for their Announcement List. That way you can be emailed when a new game pokes it head up out of the woodwork. If you're looking for a game that hasn't completed its run yet, head over to forums.unfiction.com/forums and scan through the News & Rumors section. There are a few just starting that might make for a fun time.
