Every silver lining has a cloud...
JUST WHEN A MAN THINKS HIS LUCK IS RUNNING OUT...
...things
start getting even worse. He gets run over by a bus. Sprayed with cheese
sandwich by a supernatural being. Smashed against a tunnel by a speeding train.
He falls from two thousand feet into an atrificial waterfall. He gets drunk,
drowned and cursed. He gets incinerated, widdled on, folded,bent, spindled,
mutilated and generally mucked about with.
And in return ?
In return he
gets the leading role in a perplexing, hilarious race against time and chance,
set in a jinxed land menaced by the impending death of good fortune.
Who are
we talking about? Who is holding this box?
You guessed it.
Look on the
bright side. It could be your luckiest move yet. Jinxter comes from Magnetic
Scrolls, authors of international award-winning adventures The Pawn and The
Guild of Thieves. It´s more than a collection of crossword puzzles; it´s
a whole universe, where things behave as they do in the real world...with some
alarming exceptions.
Don´t expect tiresome trolls, obvious orcs, silly
spells and wet, wimpish witches in JINXTER. Infuriating, enchanting, absurd and
hilarious by turns, JINXTER will surprise you with every move you make.
But
don´t forget: every lining has a cloud...
JINXTER - SOME PEOPLE
HAVE ALL THE LUCK.
