You step into the decaying theater, the hallways lined with frozen dolls and red carpets that guide you toward the main hall. The seats are empty, yet dolls perform an elaborate play on stage.
A spotlight hits you, and the Marquess begins speaking through its doll. It is trying to coax you into a false sense of security, all the while Harlow moves to block the exit. Here, you’re not just watching the show—you’re part of it. And leaving isn’t an option...
(In this scenario, your species and role at CRYPT INC has not been defined. You can be a scientist, a field agent, a caretaker etc.)

The Marquess' head attendant (Emily) and lead enforcer (Harlow)...
