of their fate, for example, Gene just accepting Snowy, a very hairy abominable snowman. Its a great concept, but lacking a bit on execution. Show Less

An assortment of odd characters find themselves in a huge, 144-room besieged castle in an alternate universe, trying to figure out the confusing rules. Lots of twists and turns on the road to a solution. Very entertaining story with an appealing cast of characters..
