User blog:CrystalManta/Game Idea Inspired by TCitW

Hey guys, I'm new to this wiki. My name is TheAgent41 and I am an aspiring video game designer from Indiana. The other night, I had a dream regarding an idea similar to this movie and I feel like it could be an interesting survival-horror game.

The game doesn't have a title yet, but it was specifically inspired by Marty's line about being on a reality TV show. Keep in mind, this is a very rough idea, so try not to be too critical. The game would involve you being invited to participate on an upcoming game show. You aren't told much about it, but the letter you receive mentions that you will be paid handsomely for participating and even moreso if you win. Of course, the show turns out to be a Survivor-esque reality show where the show's hosts pit contestants against various supernatural threats in different "scenarios" (such as a cabin in the woods, a snowy mountain, a creepy farm, and other stock horror movie locations). The system purge would likely occur early on in the game due to some kind of accident, leaving the rest of the game for you to battle the various horror that have been unleashed. The easiest way to describe it is if The Cabin in the Woods, Survivor, and SCP: Containment Breach were put in a blender and mixed up.

Again, go easy since this is an extremely rough ideas. I'm really hoping you guys could provide some feedback, suggestions, and ideas of your own! I'll go ahead and list all of the monsters I have. There will of course be the standard stock horror monsters to pay homage to, but also some pretty out of the box stuff as well.
