Chapter 55: Matryoshka-style communication

Views:

"Is it that exaggerated? I want to see what magic power this "Escape" has!"

In a certain community in the imperial capital, a shirtless, muscular tough guy with a short haircut, 1.92 meters tall, sat in front of a computer.

The tough guy is named Song Ren. At this moment, he is looking at the information in a forum with a suspicious look on his face.

They all talk about how "Escape" is scary.

He has never been interested in horror games.

It's just that he knew that this horror game was made by the designer of "To the Moon", which made him a little curious.

After all, even though his image is very powerful, what does he say? The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose.

On the outside, he is a pure macho man, but macho men also shed tears sometimes. When he was playing "To the Moon" before, he shed a lot of tears.

So he still paid a little attention to Nebula Games and Chen Xu, the designer.

In addition, this game called "Escape" seemed to be quite popular recently, so he was ready to give it a try.

A horror game, is it that scary

Out of curiosity, Song Ren purchased the game installation and then entered the game.

"Huh... Are you trying to be mysterious?"

In front of Jushan Mental Hospital, Song Ren was full of confidence.

"Huh...that's it?!"

Song Ren showed disdain from climbing up the shelf to turning off the room lights.

"Hiss... Just open the door and kill. There is nothing to be afraid of."

When he opened the door and a corpse rushed in front of him, Song Ren was slightly frightened.

"Wait... don't come over!!"

The wheelchair patient in the lobby asked for a loving hug, and Song Ren turned pale.

… … …

after an hour

Song Ren leaned on the chair and breathed heavily. At this time, he could clearly feel the beating of his heart.

Plop, plop, powerful, these are all frightened by the scene just now.

Looking at the curtains next to him, he silently stood up and pulled them up to let the sun shine into the room.

"Sunshine... so nice!"

Looking at the sunshine outside, looking at the monitor that had exited the game and stayed on the store interface, Song Ren slowly let out a breath.

He had to admit one thing, he lost and lost completely.

Thinking of the game experience just now, Song Ren, who was leaning on the chair and looking at the bright sun outside, felt that his legs were a little weak at this time.

But then Song Ren suddenly thought of something, after he recovered from the fear just now.

He turned on his phone silently, found his friend's account, and sent a message.

"Lao Zhang, I found a particularly fun game. It's so exciting! It's so fun to play. I highly recommend you to play it too."

"It's the new work "Escape" by the designer of "To the Moon". What type? It's parkour and decryption. I have to say it's super exciting!"

After sending it, Song Ren took a deep breath, and then stared at the scenery outside the window.

Fortunately, fortunately, he was playing this game in broad daylight!

Leaning on the chair in the room, about half an hour passed.

At this time, his cell phone on the table rang.

A person named Lao Zhang sent a message.

A simple sentence, and three exclamation points to express his inner excitement - 'Fuck you, uncle! ! ! '

Seeing this sentence, Song Ren, who was leaning on the chair, laughed.

The previous fear had completely faded away at this time.

Because in his mind, he had already imagined how the other party was frightened.

After he finished laughing, he saw his monitor screen was still on, and his account on the game platform was still stuck on the "Escape" entry interface.

After a moment of silence, Song Ren silently closed the platform.

… … … …

There are many, many players like Song Ren.

At first, these players learned about "Escape" because of "To the Moon".

But I learned more about this game through some game community forums.

Like Song Ren, these players all felt curious and unwilling to admit defeat after seeing the messages from other players.

How scary can a horror game be? As for this? I'm afraid it's not an advertising troll, right

With this idea in mind, these players plan to play the game themselves, and then post screenshots of the game to show off.

After all, many players, especially when it comes to courage, in addition to players who are really good at it, there are still many people who have mysterious confidence in themselves.

But after they entered the game, they quickly knew what the game was like.

Not to mention the content behind it, the content at the front alone has already scared off a large number of players.

Some players entered the game with great ambitions, but were persuaded to leave at the gate of Jushan Mental Hospital.

Others were persuaded to quit when they first opened the door to kill and saw Pangpang.

Of course, most of them were still in the basement, faced with the pitch-black environment where they couldn't see their fingers, and being chased by a madman holding nails and wooden boards, and they were dissuaded from retreating.

Of course, there are some players who grit their teeth and persevere.

But after they finished repairing the generator and asked the priest to give themselves an injection and entered the prison stage, they discovered that they were just appetizers before!

Of course, in the game, they were persuaded to retreat at different stages.

But after the game, there was one thing they did in common.

That is, their posts appear on game forums, making recommendations or persuading other players.

It's like nesting dolls, one inside the other.

After all, I was scared myself, so I can only deceive anyone.

You have to let others feel the same way as you do!

After reading various information, some players were completely confused and had no idea what the horror game "Escape" was like.

Because some people deliberately cut some less scary pictures in order to make their rhetoric more realistic.

But some people said in great detail that "Escape" is very scary.

More and more opinions are attracting players who later learn about the game "Escape" and plunge into it one after another.

Just like in a relay race, the person in front reaches the finish line and passes the baton to the next runner.

However, the player base of "Escape" is even wider.

Because the group of players is constantly expanding, this means that the dissemination of news content is also constantly expanding.

At the beginning, there were related directions and topic content, and Chen Xu still needed to provide subtle guidance and create distractions for the players appropriately.

But as more and more players were frightened to death in Jushan Mental Hospital.

Nebula Games’ capital is no longer needed for guidance.

The spontaneous topic discussions among players are enough to form hot spots, which ferment little by little and continue to expand their influence like a spark that starts a prairie fire.
