ESCAPE PLAN - THE GAME
EXPERIENCE OVERVIEW
You have tested positive for the mutant X-gene and have been missing for the past 24 or the run from Sentinel Services. The mutant underground network has developed a simulator app to help fleeing mutants escape to the border, safely out of Sentinel Service’s jurisdiction.
GAMEPLAY
Using AI to create a real-time escape-to-the-border simulation, with a skill-based finale.
1. Simulation
Watch your simulation play out using AI real-time data. Manipulate the game through a set of parameters.
2. Escape Attempt
Complete a skill-based task to determine if you escape. Example: Try to escape through a portal.
SIMULATION
ESCAPE ROUTES
REALTIME DATA
The duration of the simulation is based on each player’s geolocation: their actual distance from the border.
The datasets that affect the core gameplay can be taken from Google Maps API’s:
· Travel time and distance for multiple destinations
· Timezone data across the US, Canada and Mexico
· Directions between multiple locations
SCENARIOS
Example Narrative Scenarios:
Sentinel Service drones are active in the Navajo Nation Reservation area (based on nearby Police station data).
You might take a route that is shorter or longer to avoid them.
There is a hurricane warning across most parts of Texas (based on weather data).
You might change your mode of transport to avoid flying.
Alter the parameters in-game (TBC):
· Mode of transport
· Departure time
· Escape point
NARRATIVE MAP
Each player has a different narrative based on the escape point they choose and their in-game decisions. Each escape route has a script that pulls in real-time data such as transport and weather conditions - players are essentially ‘editing’ their own story as they progress.
ESCAPE ATTEMPT
FINALE
PORTAL ESCAPE
Each escape point is assigned a different difficulty of exercise to complete which is based on your in-game decisions.
· Fail miserably - you die.
· Fail moderately - you get captured.
· Succeed - you escape.
EXAMPLE: 5 circles move around the screen. Practice hitting all the points on the circle to create a portal.
RESULTS
Whether they are captured, killed or escape, players are rewarded with a cutscene of relevant content from the show, giving them a glimpse of this world.
