How to Play the Game

Step 1: Explore the site.
Step 2: Interact with the site.
Step 3: Find hidden stuff.
Step 4: Things do change, keep checking back.

The purpose of this site is for users to explore and interact with its pages.  There are many hidden paths, some may even lead to hidden trinkets you can win, hidden communities, and answers to the mystery of what happened to Hope.

There will be no clues hidden in the html, css, or any other code. However just because something seems off screen doesn’t mean it’s not there.

 As you navigate the story that has been placed before you, I hope that you will enjoy the world, the mystery, and thrill that has been created for you.

“I have tried everything to open the lock on the last book. There was a note attached to it that said it would only unlock in the shadow of the moon…or whatever that means.”
