I remember a game, about 20 or so years ago called something like Alipine Adventure?

Full question:

It was like an Agetha Christie game and you were the detective trying to figure out who killed someone. It was set in a ski lodge in the alps or something like that. It was a graphic adventure, but there was little to no animation on it. Just a picture of the room, and then once in awhile there was a character in the room when you walked in. At one point you had to ski down the mountain... and I always got shot. Anyone remember this? I could never figure it out and I was wondering if someone could point out a walkthrough and what the name of the game was.

Best answer:

alpine encounter. my dad has it on his apple ii

What do you think of the story I'm working on?

Full question:

100 years ago there was a wanted man. Deidrichk, wanted for homicide and for murdering dozens of people, tearing them limb from limb and making their body parts into stew. Not man, not demon, not creature, he himself doesn't even know what he is. Deidrichk is caught, but escapes from his prison, only to be chased down into a ravine where he is shot many times, chained to a post and killed by having a steak driven through his heart, believing him to be a vampire. They bury him in an old cellar with the steak still in his chest, and chain the cellar shut. The legend goes.... if the steak is removed, Deidrichk will live again. Its present time. The old village that was once terrorized by Deidrichk has been turned into a camp upon the Mountain and Lake. Its summer camp, and attention is focused on Christie and Britton, two high school students that meet in camp and who are very attracted to one another. Meanwhile, something's happened and the steak is removed from Deidrichk's chest. One night at the camp, a boy goes out past lock in hours, and is never seen alive again. His torso is found, torn at the waist, hanging by his hands on a shower curtain. Written in blood, Deidrichk is out for revenge. The officials see it as a terrible prank, that Deidrichk is just a legend... Camp owners also notice that a girl is missing. Christie. Christie was taken back by Deidrichk to be his servant. Wiped of her memory, she believes Deidrichk is her uncle, and is changed into "Ana". He returns each night, taking a child and murdering them in their sleep. Britton is destined to find "Ana" and, well, use your imagination. im still working on it. Okay i'll continue... For some reason that I havent thought of, they havent closed the camp down Agents, detectives, and police teams are sent to search the camp grounds to keep it safe enough for the kids. They find his home in the swamp, and attack, iffy of what they think he might be. Hiding in the swamp water, he slowly kills each one off and drags their cars and a small helicopter to the bottom of the swamp, drowning officers. Deidrichk realizes he has developed human feelings towards Ana, caring for her as if she were his daughter. He lets her leave one night, and she is found by Britton, but doesn’t recognize him. She brings him back to her and Deidrichk’s home. Deidrichk hides when Britton is there. He tries to convince Ana of her being “Christine”. She still doesn’t remember. Britton then sees Deidrichk and develops a plan to save Ana and perhaps kill Deidrichk. He is already being watching like a hawk from the creature, and texts to one of his friends to call 911 and sur to call 911 and surround the place. Britton out-smarts Deidrichk and gives him alcohol, which makes him pass out. Deidrichk then wakes to the sound of a megaphone and the blinding lights of cop cars and a squad. After a long battle, Deidrichk is wounded badly and grabs Ana, and flies away. She tends to his wounds in a cave on the side of the mountain and just as SWAT teams surround them, blocking them in the cave, Deidrichk restores her memory. Christie now, though still remembers being “Ana”. Deidrichk asks her to kill him, by shoving a poison coated silver knife into his heart. She does so, and as she exits the cave, SWAT runs in to find the bones of a chimera.

Best answer:

Best answer:

I would definitely be reading handle with care by Jodi Picult and The Choice by Nicholas Sparks, I've read them both before and they are both amazing. I found that they were interesting, the one by Jodi Picult sparked so many emotions inside myself, that I was laughing, crying and feeling suspense all at the same time, It took me a few chapters to really get into the book, but it was well worth it!

Best answer:

Please help me come up with a good ending for my story?

Full question:

Please read all or do not answer. Thank you! Plot: There's this girl named Melody who's around 17. She's in a mental hospital because she has dreams that she believes are prophecies and thinks the world will end and is being corrupted by demons. Melody sees this in people around her- people's personalities start to change and their pupils grow until their whole iris is black. (her sister Laurel is in the hospital with her because Laurel's the only one who believes her. Laurel's very quiet and Melody is protective of her, even though she's the younger one). In reality, they're memories. This is her second life on earth (yeah, it's out there, but just play along). Before, she was a clairvoyant who lived in the 1970s, no one believed her, and then she was brutally murdered- turns out, her murderer was none other than the devil himself, literally. Lucifer. So now, in the present, she sometimes dreams of memories of the prophecies she had before, in her last life. Make sense? I hope so. Anyway, she finds this out from a young woman named Miriam, Miriam's sister Charlotte, and their half-brother, James. Turns out, James is Lucifer's son (they all have the same mom, but Miriam and Charlotte's dad is dead). James is completely human, not a demon or anything. James and Melody fall and love and it stays this way throughout the story. James, Miriam, and Charlotte take Laurel and Melody to the Spark, a city built inside a mountain where all the remaining humans live. Melody tries to remember how to defeat Lucifer, but, you know, the harder you try to remember something, the harder it is to remember, right? Plus, it's a past life. So she just has to wait until it comes to her in a dream (it won't until a sequel). I'm thinking that maybe Laurel will be possessed by Lucifer at the end and decides to kill herself to save Melody...or something. Or maybe Melody and James come back to find that the Spark has been corrupted and everyone there is demons, so they have to live on their own. I don't know! I want a really good twist ending, like one that makes you gasp and sit there thinking about it for ages after you finish the book. Like in the Planet of the Apes, or in Alfred Hitchcock's movies, or Agatha Christie's books. Unfortunately, I've already got 55,000 words in the story, so I need to figure out the ending before I get there! Please, please help me! (And thank you for reading that horrendously long explanation. You are an angel sent from heaven)

Best answer:

Its good. A little confusing. Maybe in the end something strange happens like she discovers some unknown powers or something. Its your story. Have fun lay back the answers will come to you. Happy writing.

Best answer:

I would pick: -The Kite Runner: The Kite Runner tells the story of Amir, a young boy from the Wazir Akbar Khan district of Kabul, who betrayed his best friend Hassan, the son of his father's Hazara servant, and lives in regret. The story is set against a backdrop of tumultuous events, from the fall of the monarchy in Afghanistan through the Soviet invasion, the mass exodus of refugees to Pakistan and the United States, and the rise of the Taliban regime. (The book is far more interesting than this summary explains it, trust me. I just wanted to show you something that would give you a little background. READ THIS BOOK! It's one of my all time favorites) -Go Ask Alice: This is a very horrifying and true story. It is the diary of a girl, and her life as she becomes addicted to drugs. It is a very powerful book. Not like any you have read before. -And Then There Were None: Agatha Christie writes very good mystery novels. This one is very suspensful and fun to read.

What are (yes, can be more than one!! for crazy dog lovers) your least favorite and favorite dog breeds?

Full question:

I HATE, ABHOR, DETEST the Doberman Pinscher and the German Shepherd Dog. They have unstable temperaments and are totally rude and dangerous. I'd never own one. Ugly too. lol/ I know I'm being rude, but Bedlington Terriers are also ugly. (Dumb Witness/ Agatha Christie)Sorry! MUTTS & MONGRELS OF UNKNOWN HERITAGE!!! LOL But... These are my following Favourites: Great Pyrenees Slovensky Cuvac Polish Tatra Sheepdog Akbash Dog Maremma Sheepdog Kuvasz Bernese Mountain Dog (lol, sooo loyal) Saint Bernard (Beethoven) Jindo (even more loyal than Berner), Punsan, Sapsali (native breeds) Old English Sheepdog Otterhound Golden Retriever Labrador Retriever Newfoundland Dog Dalmatian Chihuahua West Highland White Terrier English Bulldog Pug Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (Sooooo adorable; soooo expensive (dammit)) Pomeranian Samoyed Toy American Eskimo Dog Japanese Spitz Japanese Chin Shih Tzu Maltese (long flowing hair. lovit!) Toy Poodle (Not the partly fluffy style. those are ugly. Like BABY from A RARE BREED OF LOVE/ book) Siberian Husky Boston Terrier Thats about it. Long, huh? This is all opinion based, and i DO know that not all dobies or GSD's are unstable. So it's like, name your favorite/least favourite breeds. That's all, and please don'r criticize my opinions, as I don't criticize yours. And I'm NOT a racist. You have to admit it yourself, some breeds are less appealing than others. What appealing is to you, may differ from my idea of beauty. OK? And I respect that. I like the pekingese too Leave this one for voters! Anyway, thanks everyone for answering. Some said very rude things, but then others generally just stated their breeds to name! Thank you, all who ANSWERED the QUESTION.

Best answer:

Well, and aren't you a sweetie to generalize all dogs of a particular breed? How do you feel about people of certain ethnic groups, huh? Bet there are a few prejudices running rampant there as well. You *cannot* generalize. I do not have Dobies or GSDs, but they are usually great dogs. I cannot imagine why you would make this sweeping statement about all "German" breeds (Hmmm...or can I?) And I really find it difficult to believe that you have any kind of familiarity with the rare breeds you name. Open your mind -- oh, sorry, that's probably too much to ask.

Will you read this thing that I wrote?

Full question:

I never knew I could get this far, on foot no less. The cloudless night sky, quiet and desolate, made my thoughts clearer; as if the heavens reflected my thoughts. It was raining earlier when I was crying. Harder, when I began this escape from the unknown. I still don't understand what happened exactly, and my mind kept on moving away from the act of doing so. All I know is that they were murdered. I heard my parents cry out in the night. My mom pleading, as if the killer would have any remorse and discontinue what he had planned to do. Why? I don't know. By who? Don't know either. At least I'm safe, I assured myself. But for how long? I clutched my bag tighter to me and thought how foolish I was to bring this weight along. It was my school bag and it's just full of school stuff. I emptied it along the way, scattering the contents in intervals, out to random places, Hoping to fool the pursuer. But I know he's not a fool, he managed to kill my dad. And my dad is certainly nowhere near anything foolish. I felt as if the moon is getting brighter, or maybe the sky clearer. I got up and noticed none of my shoes have shoelaces. I smiled at the thought that maybe little Christie got them again and used it to tie her hair into those curly, blond pigtails. Is she dead too? I inhaled deeply and sighed. No more tears, I said to myself. I must continue on. But the town is still miles away, I'd probably get there by noon at this pace. That is, if I'm not already lost. I looked around me and saw the hunched darkness of the mountains at the distance, blinked the moisture in my eyes away, and gripped my bag tighter. It was then I realized that I was really lost, entirely swallowed by the forest. I guess the killer will succeed with whatever it is that he had planned soon. If a boy cried in a forest, and nobody is there to hear him, will he make a sound?

Best answer:

Wow. I'm having mixed emotions now, thanks for making such an awesome read. You know, while I was reading it, I felt the scenes just like how they'd be in the movies. Haha, I imagined the boy wearing a baseball cap, with a red backpack, and his laceless-shoes. Very vivid and alive... or dead. Just joking. I loved it.

Best answer:

It reads really well - gripping for the most part and certainly makes me want to continue reading to find out what happens next - YOu have a winsome poetic quality to your writing which is a great asset I would beware the cliche (hunched mountain shapes even though you present it in a different way - Anything that take sthe reader out of the spell of your story and into critting you as an author is a loss. I really like your ending it is clever but not too clever. 'Scattering the contents in intervals, out to random places', and 'my mind kept moving away from doing so' are a bit innaccessible - and you have to re read them to get the sense of them so I owudl try a simpler phrase. Telling from the first person is difficult as we have to mostly be on oyur side adn if you are using convoluted speech patterns we might question the sincerity of your grieving process. The sentence 'I guess the killer - is another that could be simplified as it takes a bit of getting the head round try something that moves the story on like - I fear my adversary will succeed in his plans for me - giving us more information as we already know s/hes a killer.and it makes it personal. Extremely well written - thanks for sharing it.
