The first floor offers you many opportunities to hide compared to the ground floor. You quickly climb the stairs and enter the first room at your fingertips.

"... seven... six..."

And you are not the only one who have had this idea. You meet Johan, Benjamin and Jade in what seems to be the hotel's manager's office. While Benjamin is blocking the door with every object that comes in handy, Johan is carefully exploring the room.

"... four... three..."

You scan the environment. You almost have the impression of being in a tiny museum. There are tons of amphoras and ceramic plates decorating the beautifully carved wooden furniture. This could be a great moment if you were not in this stressful situation.

Jade is complaining about the lack of luminosity. Yeah sure, let's turn all the lights on and reveal our position to the killer! As unexpected as it might seems, you are less and less appreciating that "diva" ...

"... one... zero! Let the game begin!"

Benjamin did a really great job: the door seems perfectly shut off. But will it be enough to keep you safe? You should not forget that the game is not limited in time... Still, you try your best to calm yourself down: after all, it might be a joke and no killer will come after you.

Suddenly, Jade screams, making your blood run cold. Benjamin rushes to her, ready to protect her at all costs. You are also preparing yourself to fight... when the young woman explains with disgust that she has just saw a spider. You roll your eyes. No doubt, you will never get along with her.

Johan then calls your attention to a big hole in the wall, behind a big cupboard, which seems to descent to the bowels of the earth.

"Do you think we should go in there?"

At the same time, you can hear someone banging on the door. Probably the killer! Without thinking twice, you rush to the secret passage. You sure are willing to survive this monstrous human hunting.

You are now in a huge tunnel. Some faint neon lights decorating the walls encourage you to move forward. You have the impression of being in the undergrounds of an abandoned warehouse. The game's master really thought about everything while creating this hotel... But why has he put so much effort into this project?

You bravely walk in the tunnel, paying attention to every sound around you. Except some drops of water echoing in the passage and Jade's constant whining, you do not hear anything suspicious. Are you really safe?

A few meters away, you eventually arrive at a fork in the road.

"Let's turn left!" orders Jade.

"I think it's wiser to take the path on the right," calmly disagrees Johan.

This dark-haired boy does not talk a lot, but he sure is wise. Concerning Benjamin, he does not have any particular opinion on the matter.

Your friends strongly disagree with each other. Therefore, you are the only one who can make this argument come to an end.

You decide! Is it better to turn left, or right?
