Wayward Manor-FLT-0daytown

《鬼宅大联欢(Wayward Manor)》是一款非常恐怖的游戏，游戏讲述了一座古宅的老主人在死后变成鬼魂并长久地守着自己的房子，这促使他在新的房客搬来后，他绞尽脑汁地吓唬新住户，迫使他们搬走，至于玩家扮演的正是鬼魂，而吓倒那些房客就成了玩家的目标。除了充满幻想气息的剧情，游戏精致的画面和丰富的人设也是一大亮点。

《鬼宅大联欢(Wayward Manor)》是英国著名作家Neil Gaiman尼尔·盖曼进军游戏界的处女作。盖曼是近十年来欧美文坛崛起的最耀眼的明星，被视为新一代幻想文学的代表。其创作领域横跨幻想小说、科幻小说、恐怖小说、儿童小说、漫画以及歌词，他还向影视圈发起过冲击，其小说《星尘》被改编成电影，这次，闲不住的盖曼开始进军游戏界了！

在这款游戏中，吸收了非常多的美式恐怖元素与如英国经典舞台剧《欢乐的精灵》当中的一些精华。游戏将背景设定在古老神秘的庄园内，玩家化身为一名四处流窜的游魂，目的就是将庄园中的人全部吓跑！

虽然游戏画面咋看之下有些恐怖，但是诚如游戏名《鬼宅大联欢》一样，这是一场充满乐趣的联欢，玩家通过不断寻找新鲜创意的点子来吓唬人类，看到被吓者大惊失色的有趣反应！

说到这位Neil Gaiman（尼尔·盖曼），真可谓称的上是当代的一位奇才。在它的作品中有以独特黑色幽默风靡全世界的《睡魔》系列，也有斩获创神奖的小说《星云》、而《仲夏夜之梦》更是成为首部获得世界奇幻将殊荣的漫画作品。而他也一度被称为是继罗琳之后最成功的作家！此番跨界，也让我们有了不小的期待！

Wayward Manor invites you to jump into the afterlife of a disgruntled ghost, trying to reclaim his house from its newfound owners. Set in the 1920s, this puzzle/adventure game transports players to an era of dark screwball comedy where they must unlock the secrets of a twisted mansion. Players will discover the quirks of Wayward Manor’s unwelcome guests and choose how to prey on their darkest fears.

Story
The Budds, a dysfunctional family of misfits and eccentrics, have brought their own abysmal possessions into your humble abode and stifled your power. Each level is a playground for scares where players earn fear to take back control of the room. If you want free reign over your mansion once again, you must drive the Budds mad with fear using only your imagination and their hideous belongings.

History
What started as a Lego prototype that The Odd Gentlemen and Neil Gaiman played together one afternoon, soon became a unique collaboration to tell a story through a nonlinear puzzle/adventure game hybrid, where the player learns about the characters and world through their observations and discovery. First launched on the website WhoHauntsNeil.com, Wayward Manor has been slowly unveiling its story and world to a whole new audience. Wayward Manor is Neil Gaiman’s first foray into video games.
