WELCOME TO PARADISE...?
Characters who have crossed to the other side of the dimension will find themselves secluded on a relatively small island. Though it will serve as their prison until the group figures out a way to put an end to this sick, twisted game — there is no denying that their new living space is
picturesque. Surrounded by white sands and blue waters, there is not a single day that feels
too hot despite the clearly tropical weather. Seagulls cry somewhere up above you, and the smell of sea salt clings to everything you own. After everything that's happened since you arrived on the ship, the island certainly has its appeal. Your hosts weren't lying when they said it was safe.
But... Speaking of the ship? Every other day, almost like clockwork, what appears to be a cruise ship can be seen in the horizon. It never comes close enough for those on the island to truly appreciate the details, which is unsurprising, given the fact that you are now closer to the ruins that can be seen from the ship's deck. Anyone who tries to swim their way back to the ship or any of the ruins will find themselves mysteriously looping back to the island. No matter how hard you try, you will never be able to get more than 200 meters away from its shores.
LOCATIONS
APARTMENTS:
Welcome to your new home! Situated right next to the ocean, the apartment complex is equipped with enough space to fit everyone who makes their way to the graveyard. Unlike the rooming situation on the ship, however, everyone is free to select their own living spaces without anyone else dictating where they will stay and who they will live with.
Each apartment is luxurious and comfortable, featuring a queen sized bed, a fully equipped kitchen, and a balcony for everyone to enjoy a meal right by the ocean. Your ghost hosts have their own living spaces at the top floors of the complex, but it may be necessary to
request a private meeting to see them...
CINEMAS:
For those who would prefer not to spend their day out in the sun, the island features its very own movie theater. Though not quite as large and opulent as anything found on the ship, the cinema features a series of films that are sure to satisfy anyone. However, residents of the island should beware... If you wonder into the cinema between midnight and 5:00 AM, you will find that the selection of movies has drastically changed. Should you step into the auditorium, you'll find the events leading up to your death playing in a loop. This "film" cannot be seen by anyone else, as each individual will see a recording of their own death.
On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, the cinema will provide a live feed of the investigation, trial and execution. Feel free to get some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy the proceedings. After all, that's what the snack bar is for.
ARCADE:
Though not particularly fancy, the arcade is equipped with everything a gamer's heart could desire. Motorcycle and race car simulators, dancing games, pinball machines, shooters, claw machines, and so forth — dozens upon dozens of machines line the walls of the arcade, all of them free to use for anyone who ventures inside. The arcade also features vending machines filled with snacks and non-alcoholic drinks, as well as a kiosk where you can easily serve yourself up some nachos, hot dogs, or pretzels.
GAZEBOS:
Located right outside of the apartment complex, the island features two beautiful gazebos for anyone wanting to enjoy the tropical warmth without suffering the consequences of staying out for too long under the sun.
MEETING HALL:
The meeting hall is, as it turns out, exactly what it says on the tin. The main room of the meeting hall features a large, rectangular table with enough chairs to easily accommodate up to 33 individuals. There is a chalkboard on one side of the room, with a seemingly endless supply of chalk for anyone who may wish to write on it, as well as a large cork board on the opposite wall to pin announcements or important information to distribute among the population. In addition to this room, however, the meeting hall also features two water closets and a fully equipped kitchenette.
CAFETERIA:
Much like the ship, the island is equipped with its very own cafeteria. Featuring a buffet filled with gourmet delicacies, the menu changes between breakfast, lunch, and dinner, never running out of food despite the fact that there is no one manning to kitchen. There are circular tables scattered throughout the area, set with fine china, actual silverware, and crystal goblets. Those who reside on the island will find that they will never have to go hungry.
KITCHEN:
Though nowhere near as large as the industrial kitchen on the ship, attached to the cafeteria is a fully equipped kitchen that is accessible for any of the island's residents. There are two separate full-sized refrigerators for storing ingredients that need to be cooled, and one slightly smaller one which sits empty, as well as a freezer to store perishable items. Anyone rummaging through the kitchen will find that it's stocked with all sorts of cooking equipment, making it a chef's dream.
PANTRY:
If you're looking for dry goods, you've found the place. The pantry has ingredients for nearly every dish, and if you look through it long enough, you're bound to find what you're looking for eventually. You certainly won't be going hungry here.
CLOTHING STORE:
Exactly what it says on the tin. Those who wander into the clothing store will find something that perfectly suits them, regardless of body shape or gender. Though more modest clothes can be found here, the majority of the clothing seems to be on the... skimpier side. Specifically, it looks like they're geared towards life on a tropical island, where the heat can easily send you to an early grave (again!) if you layer up too much. Have fun with your booty shorts, tank tops and flip-flops, though! If you're particularly lucky, you might even find a cool pair of shades in here.
COMMUNITY SHOWERS:
Located right next to the beach, the community showers feature four individual shower stands for beachgoers to wash the sand off their feet — as well as to get it out of more uncomfortable places.
WATER CLOSET:
As the name implies, the water closet is an individual bathroom. It's equipped with a single toilet, a sink, a wastebin, and a mirror located right above the sink. Did you think pooping was nerfed after death? That's cute.
OUTDOOR BAR:
Should you venture to the south of the island, you will find that there's an outdoor bar smackdab on the beach. Though it's unmanned, anyone can easily slip behind the counter to find an assortment of cool, refreshing drinks and delicious snacks. Want to sip on a cold one while working on a tan? Now's your chance. Want some bacon fries to go along with that? You got it.
BEACH:
It's a beach, bruh. Decked out with beach umbrellas, chairs, and towels — all residents of the island are free to kick back and relax here. There are even a couple of surfboards, boogie boards and floaties scattered around in the sand, free to take for anyone who might want to have a little fun out in the water. Be warned, though! Venture too far out, and you'll loop back to island. And that's without getting into the matter of bodies washing on on the shore each Sunday evening... Sheesh.
FISHING SUPPLIES:
Located right next to the boardwalk, the island features a quaint little kiosk equipped with all the tools one might need to go fishing. These are all free to take as long as one stays within the kiosk's vicinity. But should anyone try to take them home to their apartment, they'll find that the stolen tools will pop right back to the kiosk. Sharing is caring, everyone.
BOARDWALK:
Built with solid, wooden planks — the boardwalk allows residents of the island to walk right above the ocean. This area is ideal for anyone who wishes to fish, or who might simply want to sit and enjoy the view without getting (too much) sand up their derriere.
RAFT:
Though it's not visibly attached to anything, those who mess around with the raft will find that it just does not budge from its current location next to the boardwalk. Weird...
