Explore New Worlds, Experience Fresh Adventures

AGON

An ocean from inside a cave.
Agon. You’ll soon leave the musty confines of the British museum and travel the world.
AGON

100 Years Ago…

AGON transports you to England as it existed at the turn of the 20th century. A horse and carriage clip-clopping down a cobblestone street on a misty evening set the mood for the introduction of Professor Samuel Hunt, a mild-mannered scientist working late into the night.
The chance perusal of The Illustrated London News’ front page reveals that “a large number of so far uncategorized and often unidentifiable artifacts have arrived this month to the warehouse of the British Museum.” The professor already knows this, of course, since he works at the museum.
But then Professor Hunt finds a letter from someone known only as “W.K.” This mysterious writer tells the professor, “I know you enough to put my trust in you to keep my most precious secret.” This person says that only the professor can solve the mystery of the unknown artifacts.
Attached to the letter is a page written in illuminated script. Its unknown author talks of a Black King and a “mission to find all those places where the last masters of the lost board play online games.” The ancient parchment ends with this declaration: “I am in search of the Agon!”

The Inciting Event

And thus Professor Hunt finds his world turned upside down. Compelled to act, he decides to learn more about the mysterious artifacts in the museum. Solving that riddle, however, is merely the first step in a journey that will take him around the world, from the polar circle to Madasgascar, to the Spanish city of Toledo and beyond. In fact, the professor has been tasked with traveling to 12 corners of the world to complete his quest.
AGON is broken into chapters, with each installment available from the play online games’s Web site. Eventually, there will be 14 in all, each more difficult and challenging than the previous one. By the end, Professor Hunt will have, hopefully, not only discovered the lost board play online games but safely recovered them and brought them back to the museum for display.
Perhaps then he will receive proper recognition from the museum director for his accomplishments.

RHEM 2

Take It Underground

RHEM 2: The Cave takes a much different approach than AGON, thrusting you into an adventure deep underground. In the first play online games, which you don’t have to be familiar with to solve the puzzles in the sequel, you discovered the world of RHEM; now you must head beneath it to learn more about the network of hallways and rooms below.
Brothers Zetais and Kales are back for this story. Kales has left you a message saying that he has left the caves, but the first of three parts of a key with Zetais. By finding the other two pieces, you can unlock a deeper part of the cave system, where a mysterious artifact lies hidden. Discover it and snap a photo to prove your achievement.
During your journey, you manipulate strange machines to solve the puzzles that unlock secrets and move you one step closer to your goal. Strange vehicles and odd devices offer assistance along the way. Take whatever help you can get, for no one wants to be lost in the caves beneath RHEM.
Of course, the end of one story often signals the start of a new one, and RHEM 2 is no different. Savor your achievement and get ready for the next installment.
