"FANTASTiSCHES" PREViEW: SINNER

Concept:

You are a man of the dark ages. Suddenly during one night you have a dream. You only have to live five more years but have done to many bad things - your chances to enjoy your live after death in heaven are zero! If you do not want to get to hell, you have to do many good things.

"Doing good things" is not as easy as it sounds. If you die and have not done enough good things you will go to hell. But to stay alive you also have to do bad things. You have to defend yourself. It is your task to be as good as possible at the moment you die!

You become a monk and wander through the country literally doing the best you can.

The Levels:

There will be a big continent (based on an ancient map of europe) consisting of towns and woods where you can move freely. Here you will discover a lot of adventures and puzzles:

Help the people in the woods when they get robbed.

You can steal and sell something to get a letter of indulgence.

 

 

But there will also be some special levels:

 Pestilence: Survive in a town of pestilence.

Pilgrim: Travel to Jerusalem and say some prayers? No, it will not be that easy!

Knight of the cross: Free the holy land from the pagans.

Rescue the Pope from asasination: ...

 

 

You can choose the character you play with: Smith, king, farmer, maid... The game is easier if you first go to a monastery and become a monk or a nun. Your ablities (strong/weak; intelligent/stupid) will depend on the character you have decided you for.

 Sometimes you have to do bad things to finally do the good. To free Jerusalem from the pagans you will have to kill some of them. This will have a bad impact on your karma. But if you finished the level boss and Jerusalem is free, you will have a better karma than before.

 

 

The whole game is about religions. But it is not a "pro christianity game": It looks funny when you are jumping and running around as a monk / nun. And finally if you die, strange things are going to happen: Go immediatly to hell, get reborn as a plant, animal, human (restart game?), become an angel or find peace in paradise or nirvana! The message of the game could be: Hindus, Jews, Muslims and christs, they have all the same god. And there is a god. The whole game should be a black comedy about the middle ages (Monty Phyton style?) and religions.

The simple moto of the game is to do more good than bad things. But the player has to use his brain to go to paradise / nirvana. If you want to know what it is like in hell or to be a plant, you can be as bad as you can. The characters should look cute, but through the whole game you should smell the dark ages. This mixture should appeal to players of all ages!
