About
the game:
|

Barrow Hill: The eerie Cornish landscape is brought
to life like never before. Arriving during the Autumn Equinox
you have one night to unravel a sinister story. Explore
the well trodden pathways across the land, seek clues in
almost forgotten shrines and experience the ancient forces
which exist in the standing stone monument known as Barrow
Hill.
Ancient Celtic Monuments: Standing stones
are, perhaps, the most mysterious wonders of the ancient
world. There are still no satisfactory explanations as to
what they are, how they were built, and who constructed
them. A detailed, and spellbinding, story is woven through
the very fabric of Barrow Hill, offering possible explanations,
further mysteries and a chance to get beneath the surface
of archaeology like no other game before it.

Dig
deeper: Use real archaeological techniques, and
practice, to unearth forgotten artefacts and delve into
the Celtic legends which haunt the green lanes of the hill.
Cornwall boasts itself as the home of many sorcerers, ancient
kings and mythological characters. From the piskie folk
of the hedgerows and clifftops to the beasts of Bodmin Moor.
There isn't a corner of England's most western county that
isn't rich in folklore, magic and danger! |

| Missing!:
Barrow Hill has been plagued by mystery throughout its modern
history. A construction team, building the nearby Service
Station, vanished one chilly November night. No sight, nor
sound, has ever been offered as explanation. Could the ancient
ring of standing stones be responsible? Certain academics
certainly think so. Amelia Rumford, famed (and rather eccentric)
archaeologist performed a survey of the stones in the 1980's.
Her findings have since been ridiculed, as the content seemed
to suggest that the stones moved during her time there.
Utter nonsense? Sadly, there is no way of checking, as Amelia
(like the construction workers) vanished without trace.

| The
time is now: The Autumn Equinox, a powerful night
in the pagan calendar, has thrown a dark cloak across the
landscape. The ancient stones have been disturbed. Middlestone's
respected archaeologist Conrad Morse has launched a new
'dig' at the site. He has invited others to join him, each
proficient in their chosen fields. The circle must give
up its secrets to these new arrivals, in the form of geophysical
mapping (ground radar), and scientific crafts like palaeobotany
(the study of near fossilised plants, and seeds). Each of
the standing stones are unique, and un--surveyed. What clues
hide underneath the rich soil of the Barrow's mound? When
you arrive at the site, not all is as it should be. Something
is very wrong. You have one night, the Autumn Equinox, to
find out what lurks beneath Barrow Hill. |
