Storyline

You are a tourist in New Orleans, looking to escape the bustle of the city. You rode the streetcar to City Park, wanting to see for yourself the park’s ancient oaks and hidden gems. 

In the shade of crepe myrtles, you walk along Lelong Drive toward the New Orleans Museum of Art. You notice things are a little overgrown. Vines are overtaking trees. The grass is nearly up to your waist. To your right, the Big Lake is overflowing its banks. This can’t be normal, you say to yourself. Something is wrong.

My family had fun (two adults and two kids, 9-and 7-years old). my husband said it was more fun than he expected! If this game gets more traction and you have more funds, it would be cool to 1) have the option to make it like an escape game, so, have a timer countdown, 2) have the option to have the history bits read aloud, perhaps in a regional dialect, and 3) incorporate augmented reality, so that you could hold up your phone and the statue of Diana would come alive and an actor could deliver her message as she lets loose arrows at the digitally generated wild beasts (gators?) that are encroaching from all sides. Could be fun and immersive!
