Gameplay

The game is played by wandering the mansion, solving logic puzzles and watching videos that further the story. A mansion is a large dwelling House. The word itself derives (through Old French) from the Latin word mansus (the perfect passive participle The main antagonist, Stauf, is an ever-present menace, taunting the player with clues, mocking the player as they fail his puzzles ("We'll all be dead by the time you solve this!"), and expressing displeasure when the player succeeds ("Don't think you'll be so lucky next time!").

One of Stauf's many puzzles: This one requires Ego to close all of the skeletons in the coffins. When one coffin is selected, that one, and some of its adjacent ones, open or close.

A moderately complex plot of manipulation and sin is played out by actors through film clips as you progress between rooms by solving twenty-one puzzles of shifting nature and increasing difficulty. Sin is a term used mainly in a religious context to describe an act that violates a moral Rule, or the state of having committed such a violation An actor, actress, player or thespian (see terminology) is a person who Acts in a Dramatic production and who works The first puzzles most players encounter is either one where players must select the right interconnected letters inside the lens of a telescope to form a coherent sentence; or a relatively simple cake puzzle, where the player has to divide the cake evenly into six pieces, each containing the same number of decorations. Other puzzles include mazes, chess problems, logical deductions, Simon-style pattern-matching, word manipulations, and even an extremely difficult game of Infection similar to Reversi that utilizes an AI (and would later go on to make an encore appearance in the sequel). Simon is an Electronic game of rhythm and memory skill invented by Ralph H Ataxx (also known as Slime and Frog) is a Board game which first appeared in 1990 as an arcade Reversi (also marketed by Pressman under the trade name Othello) is an abstract strategy Board game which involves play by two parties on For players who need help or simply cannot solve a particular puzzle, there is a hint book in the library of the house. The first two times the book is consulted about a puzzle, the book gives clues about how to solve the puzzle; on the third time, the book simply completes the puzzle for the player so that the player can proceed through the game. Although the game's manual states that there may be consequences for using the hint book, the hint book can be used without penalty for all but the final puzzle.

The 7th Guest was the first game for the PC platform to be available only on CD-ROM, since it was too large to be distributed on floppy disks: it came on 2 CDs. IBM PC compatible computers are those generally similar to the original IBM PC, XT, and AT.

Story

Old Man Stauf built a house, and filled it with his toys
Six guests were invited one night, their screams the only noise
Blood inside the library, blood right up the hall
Dripping down the attic stairs, hey guests, try not to fall
Nobody came out that night, not one was ever seen
But Old Man Stauf is waiting there, crazy, sick, AND MEAN!

The story revolves around a man named Henry Stauf. Stauf was a no one; like so many during the Great Depression, he had no money, and became a simple drifter and thief. But one night, in the town of Harley-on-the-Hudson, he murdered a helpless woman on the way home from choir practice, beating her on the head with a hammer, so as to steal her purse. He was forced to sink even lower, truly a pathetic wretch. But, as he was sleeping later that night, he had a dream, a vision, of a doll so beautiful that he had to make it for himself. And he did, working without rest, until it was indistinguishable from the one in his dream. Afterwards, he went to a bar in town. The owner saw the doll and said his daughter would love it, and Stauf offered it to him. In return, the owner offered Stauf food and a place to stay.

That night, Stauf had another vision, and another, and another, and continued to build these toys just as he saw them, continually selling them for a tidy profit. Soon enough, he was able to open up a shop, because every child in the town and outside of it wanted a Stauf toy. "A Stauf toy is a toy for life," they said, and "no two are alike. " Stauf's toymaking empire reached its zenith, however, when a mysterious virus started killing the children. A virus (from the Latin virus meaning Toxin or Poison) is a sub-microscopic infectious agent that is unable Doctors did all they could, but nothing could be done to save them. Meanwhile, Stauf, acting upon one last vision, built for himself a large mansion; a strange mansion, one that frightened people.

He wasn't heard from again for quite some time, until one day, invitations were sent out to six individuals inviting them to stay at the Stauf mansion for the night, with promises of granting them their greatest, fondest wishes.

The game begins inside the house some time after the night of the "party", and puts players in the shoes of an unexplained protagonist known only as "Ego. " Ego himself doesn't appear to know why he's there, or who he is, but as he explores the house, he witnesses ghostly reenactments of that fateful night so long ago, solving the same puzzles that the guests had to solve, as he tries to piece everything together.

After eating dinner, the guests read personalized messages from Stauf to them. He has arranged for them to play a "game. " Throughout the house, there are puzzles and clues that show them what must be done to win, and subsequently, gain their greatest desire. All that Stauf is willing to tell them is that it involves another guest who hasn't arrived yet. As the guests explore the house, discerning its secrets, making alliances, and breaking them just as quickly, they all experience terrifying illusions that begin to put them all on edge. The seventh guest is revealed to be Tad, a young boy who sneaked into the house after being dared by his friends. Furthermore, they learn that Stauf wants one of them to bring Tad to him so that he can steal his soul. All of the toys that Stauf sold during his heyday were the source of the virus, and all of the children's souls are imprisoned inside of them. However, it was required that Stauf collect a certain number of souls, and so he brought the guests to his house so that they might bring Tad to him.

Four guests, Brian, Martine, Julia, and Edward, want to bring Tad to Stauf, caring more about their desires than Tad's life. But the other two guests, Edward's wife Elinor and Hamilton, wish to save Tad's life, and fight to protect him. As the night wears on, all the guests except Julia end up killing each other, and she eagerly takes Tad to the attic face to face with Stauf. Instead of granting her wish, Stauf regurgitates a pool of acid, which rapidly consumes a crying Julia. Stauf then grows a long, snakelike tongue which wraps around Tad, pulling him closer and closer. As he watches this, Ego realizes that he is Tad, and that he has seen all of this before, countless times, trying to save himself, but always failing, never beating Stauf, always forgetting everything he had learned, stuck in some sort of purgatory. But this time, he successfully fights off Stauf, saving Tad's (and his) life. Failing to gain the last soul, Stauf turns into a skeleton, and tentacles rise out of a fiery pit that's formed beneath him and drag him down into the blazing inferno. Hell, according to many Religious beliefs, is a location in the Afterlife, which may be described as a place of suffering Tad thanks Ego for saving them, and Ego steps into a large ball of light that has formed in the room. The light fades, and the credits roll.

Cast and characters

• Henry Stauf (actor Robert Hirschboeck)- The owner of the mansion in which the game takes place. Stauf was a homeless drifter who became a successful toymaker after a series of visions showed him the toys he would create, but the people of Harley know nothing of his past. They only know him as the eccentric old man who makes marvelous toys for their children and became a hugely successful "rags to riches" story. His name is an anagram of Faust. An anagram ( Greek anagramma 'letters written anew' passive participle of ana- 'again' + gramma 'letter' is a type of Word play Faust or Faustus ( Latin for "auspicious" or "lucky" is the protagonist of a classic German Legend in which he makes

• Ego (voice of Michael Mish)- The player's character, a disembodied consciousness that moves through the house solving puzzles and observing the events of that mysterious night at Stauf's house as they unfolded long ago. The entire game takes place in first-person view through Ego's eyes. Ego does not know how he came to the house, or why, he only knows that there is a reason for him to be there that he hasn't figured out yet.

• Tad (actor Douglas Knapp) - A boy who lives next door to the Stauf mansion. On the night of the party he enters the house on a dare by climbing in through a window, then discovers that he can't get out again. He spends most of the game dodging Stauf's guests while he tries to find a way to escape the house.

• Martine Burden (Guest one) (actress Debra Ritz Mason)- Young, pretty, and ambitious, Martine was once named Miss Harley-on-the-Hudson, but she hated the small town and left as soon as she had the chance. Now she is back after her wealthy boyfriend dumped her. She is immediately attracted to the older Edward Knox, whose desires for wealth and a new life away from Elinor are quite compatible with her own desires for power and status. Although in one scene the player sees her apparently being pulled underwater in a bathtub and hears a long drawn out scream, Martine actually dies in the crypt, turning into greenish ooze after Edward Knox is killed. The idea is that she formed an alliance with Edward to get him to do her dirty work and take the blame for her. But in doing so she unintentionally bound the two of them together, and she was forced to share his fate.

• Edward and Elinor Knox (Guests two and three) (actors Larry Roher and Jolene Patrick)- An older, married couple. Elinor is a decent woman who still loves her husband and seems to want to help the boy, Tad, as much as she can. Edward is having severe financial difficulties, and he shows little love or concern for his wife, instead teaming up with the younger Martine Burden to try and solve the mystery. His greatest desire is to start over with a new life, a full bank account, and no marriage tying him down. Elinor's desire is also to start over again, but with Edward still at her side. Edward is killed by Hamilton, who snaps his neck in order to save Tad. The player does not see Elinor get killed, but the last time she's seen, she is turning into a mannequin, pitifully calling out to Tad for help. Mannequin (alternately manikin, mannikin, manakin, dummy or lay figure)

• Julia Heine (Guest four) (actress Julia Tucker)- An older woman, and quite vain. She is unhappy with her life, and recently lost her job at the bank due to a quickly developing drinking problem. Her heart's desire is to be young and beautiful again, when she felt like she could take on the world. Julia succeeds in bringing Tad to Stauf, but instead of granting her wish, Stauf mercilessly kills her.

• Brian Dutton (Guest five) (actor Michael Pocaro)- A middle-aged man who walks with a cane, Brian owns a shop in Harley-on-the-Hudson, and has sold goods to Stauf. Brian admires the way Stauf had grown wealthy and the way he had solved his own problems, and his greatest desire is to be as successful as Stauf, but he is also haunted by memories of seeing his brother fall through thin ice and drown when he was a child. Brian is stabbed repeatedly by Edward while they fight over Tad (ironically with his own knife). His wounds temporarily heal and he returns to his room, but just as he sees the suitcase of money Stauf left for him on his bed, his wounds open up and he dies.

• Hamilton Temple (Guest six) (actor Ted Lawson)- A professional stage magician nearing the end of his career, he is a kindly man who also tries to help Tad, and he gets along well with Elinor Knox. His greatest desire is to know if there is such a thing as real magic, and if there is, can Stauf give him the ability to use it? After trying to convince Tad to trust him, Hamilton is strangled to death by Julia.

George Alistair Sanger (born December 14, 1957, also known as "The Fat Man") is a Musician who has composed music for Jazz is an American Musical art form which originated in the beginning of the 20th century in African American communities in the Southern United States A few years later, Sanger independently released an album titled 7/11, which was a little over an hour long and contained all the music from T7G (this time, on separate tracks) as well as its sequel, The 11th Hour. The 11th Hour is a 1995 puzzle Computer game with a horror setting

The in-game music had conventions similar to Sergei Prokofiev's Peter and the Wolf, wherein each guest was assigned a musical theme; where Peter and Wolf used instrumental changes for its characters, The 7th Guest, conversely, used stylistic variations on the melody of Sanger's "The Game". Sergei Sergeyevich Prokofiev (Серге́й Серге́евич Проко́фьев Sergéj Sergéjevič Prokófjev) ( - 5 March 1953 was a Russian composer who Peter and the Wolf is a composition by Sergei Prokofiev written in 1936 after his return to the Soviet Union.

Development

The 7th Guest was the brainchild of game designer/graphic artist Rob Landeros[1], and a Virgin MasterTronics programmer, Graeme Devine. A "game designer" is a person who designs Video games or one who designs traditional games such as Board games Video Games Designer A video game designer A graphic designer (also known as a graphic artist and communication designer) is a professional within the Graphic design and Graphic arts industry Mastertronic was originally a publisher and distributor of low-cost ("budget" computer game software founded in 1983. A game programmer is a Programmer who primarily develops Video games or related Software (such as Game development tools. Graeme Devine is a Computer game designer and programmer who co-founded Trilobyte, created bestselling games The 7th Guest When Landeros and Devine presented their idea for the game, they were promptly "fired" so that they could start their own company, Trilobyte, dedicated solely to the development of this game. They originally intended to create the movements through the mansion using video. 3D graphics and animation were introduced to the title early in '91 when Robert Stein III[2] joined the team. Trilobyte developed the game and went on to produce the sequel, with Landeros as game designer and Devine as the lead programmer. Trilobyte was a computer game developer founded in December 1990 by Graeme Devine and Rob Landeros. A lead programmer is a Software engineer in charge of one or more software projects Unfortunately, The 11th Hour had trouble overcoming some technical hurdles and was late to market. The 11th Hour is a 1995 puzzle Computer game with a horror setting Despite high presales due to the success and popularity of The 7th Guest, the sequel sold much less than the expected sales numbers. This was due to several factors: the game was designed for DOS when Windows 95 was already available and popular, causing many people to call in frustration trying to get the game to work; inferior puzzles compared to The 7th Guest; and the music was MIDI and not WAV.

Rob Landeros developed a game called TLC, Tender Loving Care but, to the dismay of Devine (who found out about its content well into development), had a considerable amount of adult themes. The founders split up before TLC could be released. The interactive game was subsequently published by Aftermath Media. Before Trilobyte's demise they released two additional game titles, Clandestiny and Uncle Henry's Playhouse, the latter a comical twist of Henry Stauf's devious puzzles. Clandestiny, published in 1996 by Virgin Games and developed by Trilobyte, is a video -based puzzle Computer game Uncle Henry's Playhouse was a compilation game made up of the puzzles from Trilobyte 's games The 7th Guest, The 11th Hour, & ^[2]

Legacy

An official third installment was started at Trilobyte, but was never completed due to the demise of the company. Trilobyte was a computer game developer founded in December 1990 by Graeme Devine and Rob Landeros. Rob Landeros also attempted to create an official third installment, titled The 7th Guest Part III: The Collector, in which the user does not return to the Stauf Mansion, but is instead taken to a museum in which Henry Stauf, now known as "Doktor Stauf", is the curator. The 7th Guest Part III The Collector is the official second sequel to the popular 1992 game The 7th Guest developed by Rob Landeros and The game was to be developed by Lunny Interactive[3]. For a time, they had a working demonstration available for public viewing. However, the demonstration has since been taken down, and the project is assumed to be dead.
