The year is 2013 and the world as we know it has come to an end. Society has completely broken down. The Scourge as it has become known is an engineered virus stolen and then released upon the world by Al-Qaeda. It was intended to send the West back to the Stone Age by turning their citizens into crazed mutated beasts. In this power, vacuum Al-Qaeda planned to create a new world order. The infected roam the world and outnumber the few left alive. Pockets of civilization hole up around the planet trying to survive and weather the storm. Courageous and highly-trained groups of mercenaries explore the deadly ruins of civilization to salvage critical supplies and provide defense for these settlements. Their future is in your hands, Mercenary.

Check out the interactive horror story iPhone/iPad app, HAUNTING MELISSA

I heard about this a while back, but forgot to post about it.  A couple of months ago a new app was released called Haunting Melissa.  The app is a revolutionary new concept in story telling...basically in interactive movie that puts you right in the middle of the horror!  

Here is the info from the official press release from Hooked Digital Media:

Hooked Digital Media, a next-generation production company, premieres Haunting Melissa, a horror story available now exclusively on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch at www.AppStore.com/HauntingMelissa. Designed specifically for a new generation of connected viewers, Haunting Melissa reinvents storytelling to engage audiences and keep them on the edge of their seats. The Haunting Melissa App takes viewers into the world of Melissa, a teenage girl who believes her recently deceased mother is haunting her.

 

Haunting Melissa is the first project using Hooked Digital Media’s new platform, which enables delivery of stories in varied lengths, received at unpredictable intervals. Written and produced specifically for Hooked Digital Media’s new story platform and is designed to connect with Gen C viewers to tell stories in a whole new way. The company holds multiple patents that bring mystery and intrigue to the viewing ecosystem. These technology innovations release flexible content in an unpredictable but linear progression maximizing audience anticipation. As viewers progress, the app can inject new content that reveals important storyline elements through seamless push “update” notifications.

 

The project was conceived, directed and produced by Neal Edelstein, producer of hits such as “The Ring,” “The Ring 2” and “Mulholland Drive.” Haunting Melissa is written by best-selling author Andrew Klavan (True Crime, Don’t Say A Word); Haunting Melissa features an up-and-coming cast of talented actors that includes Kassia Warshawski as Melissa Strogue, Travis Nelson as Brandon, Barb Mitchell as Katherine Strogue, Jasmine Berg as Holly, Greg Lawson as Jack Strogue, Larry Reese as Mike Cole, Christian Laurian Kerr as Carter, Lisa Moreau as Amanda Maynard and Lorette Clow as Dr. Carroway.

 

“Haunting Melissa is a ghost story created to be consumed in a dark corner with headphones on and iPhone or iPad in hand,” said Neal Edelstein, president, Hooked Digital Media. “You never know when the next piece will come or how long that piece will be…it’s a complete surprise.”

 

The intuitive platform features an easy-to-use visual guide that includes a color-coded path to identify what has been viewed and what awaits. Haunting Melissa is also highly social -- viewers can easily sign in through Facebook and alert friends they are watching Haunting Melissa, share theories, freak out and make predictions of what comes next.

 

“The amazing technology contained in the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch has allowed us to present stories in a dramatically different way. The technology supports story first and foremost. As viewers move further into Melissa’s world, they will understand why this new app technology will change distribution forever,” added Edelstein.

Check out the awesome iPhone game, ARMY OF DARKNESS: DEFENSE

 I recently found this game on the iPhone app store based on the classic film, ARMY OF DARKNESS.   It is called ARMY OF DARKNESS:  DEFENSE and you play as Ash as you fight off an army of incoming deadites to protect the Necronomicon!  Game play is very simple and you earn money to buy upgrades including soldiers to help you fight (including the beloved Henry The Red!) and weapons including the iconic chainsaw!!   Check out this game if you are a fan of the EVIL DEAD films.   I thought it was kind boring at first, but the more I played it the more it really grew on me.  It is now my latest iPhone addiction!   Are any of the 4H readers playing this game already?  If so, leave a comment and let us know what you think of it!

Here's another great iPhone/iPad game: TWISTED LANDS: SHADOW TOWN

Here's another great game for all you fans of horror apps for the iPhone/iPad.    The game is called TWISTED LANDS:  SHADOW TOWN.   This is a "hidden object" style game where you have to solve clues and puzzles and every so often you have a scene were you have to find hidden objects from a list.  After finding all the items, you will be told that one item in particular will help you along your journey and it will add it to your inventory.  What you do with that item is then totally up to you. 

The story is simple,  our main character and his wife are out on a boat when they get shipwrecked on an island.   You play the part of the husband, and when you come to, your wife if missing.  You must solve all the clues and used items you find around the island to help you along your way.  

The hidden object scenes are pretty easy, but some of the puzzles and mini games are really tough.  Along the way you will encounter some strange beings, including lost of ghosts of years past.  

This game was a lot of fun and I highly recommend it to those gamers that like more story and puzzle type games  (like MYST, for example).  There is no real violence or blood, so hardcore horror fans might not care for it, but I really enjoyed playing it. 

The iPhone/touch version is $2.99 from the app store, while the iPad version is $4.99.  There is a "Lite" version, so you can check it out before you purchase it to see if it is something you would enjoy.  

If you play it, let me know what you think.  Do you have some other favorite horror games for the iPhone/iPad?
