Have you ever wanted to know what it is like to develop and promote a video game? How about a Canadian-made horror video game franchise? If you answer yes to either of these questions, then ThunderCon has someone you must meet, Rosemarie Sarno.
She is but one of a special few at Canadian game developer, Red Barrels, who have worked on the first-person survival-horror series Outlast, where you assume the role of a reporter investigating a psychiatric hospital which has become overrun by patients with homicidal tendencies and must sneak around to survive. Since its original release in 2013, the franchise has expanded to include a sequel, a prequel, and is currently being adapted for the big screen by Lionsgate Films.
A special treat will be a playthrough by Rosemarie of Outlast in the Gaming Lounge sponsored by Matt Carr. (This event is an 18+ activity due to the horror elements of the game)
Tickets are on sale now online at www.thundercon.ca or you can purchase them at select retail outlets in Thunder Bay.
