Project Goal Statement

Experience Goals

● In this game, we are aiming to give the players a chilling experience, wandering through a ruined castle in the Irish countryside, hear the wails and groans of monsters from Irish mythology.

● We also want this game to be somewhat educational, including information and lore on the monsters that will be haunting you.

Design Goals

Game Mechanics:

● The player will be able to crouch to sneak around the monsters, enter hiding places to avoid being seen and sprint to get away from anything chasing them.

● The player will have to search the surrounding area to help them figure out a way out of the ruined castle.

● The player will find lore about different Irish mythological creatures around the area, and will need to use certain pieces of information from this to solve puzzles to help them try escape.

Game Subject Matter:

● This game will take inspiration from Irish folklore. It will feature the mythological creatures, the 'banshee' and the 'fear gorta.'

● The banshee will act as a warning to the player of the danger of this place, and the fear gorta will be the one to chase and attack the player.
