The Living Experiment: Introduction

A Tale of Torture and Mazes (Part 1)

 

Everyone knew about it.  You couldn't miss it.  Construction trucks had been coming and going to the old McGowan ranch for weeks.  Strange sections of walls were lowered in by helicopter.  Buckets of water and cheap furniture were smuggled in under cover of darkness.  Everyone wondered what could be inside, but nobody dared look.


What was going on was my handiwork.  The set-up for the experiment of a lifetime.  What will Sims do when given absolute free will in a chamber of horrors?

My experiment was simple.  Find a gullible family.  Anna Gram, Crypto Gram, and Chronno Gram.  With names like that, I think they will do...


Step two: assign Warden Victor to watch over the family.  If only he knew I had all the power...


Step three: construct the building, complete with hidden toilets, a swimming pool between the bedroom and the kitchen, and fire hazards galore.


And so begins my experiment to trap Sims in a maze, and make them search for the most basic life necessities.  How long will they survive?  Will they survive?
