Here's a quick paranormal experience question. Choose only one and answer honestly, as there are no right or wrong solutions. This is simply a measurement of one's disposition towards the supernatural.

On seeing a ghost, the first thing you should do is:

1) Curl up in the fetal position, suck your thumb, and whimper uncontrollably.
2) Acknowledge the fact that you're probably insane, or possibly even dead.
3) Turn on the freaking EMF meter and get that sucker on record, dammit!

If you answered "1", you can stop reading now. I lied about there being no wrong answers. Yours is an entirely understandable reaction, but you're hopelessly out of your element here, and need not continue. If answering "2", an appointment with a doctor is required at the first available opportunity, regardless of which condition you meet. If you selected "3", then Jonathan Boakes' The Lost Crown: A Ghost-hunting Adventure is for you.



In The Lost Crown, players join amateur treasure seekers Nigel Danvers and Lucy Reubans as they explore the fog-shrouded British harbour town of Saxton in pursuit of the fabled Crown of Anglia. Not all treasures are meant to be found, however, and in an area rich with myth, legend, and supernatural occurrences, the search is anything but normal. Not only will certain residents resist you in your quest, some of them do so from beyond the grave, and success depends on your skills as a paranormal investigator, using real-world ghost hunting equipment and techniques to proceed.

If that sounds good to you, winning a free copy probably sounds even better, and three lucky people will do just that, courtesy of Got Game Entertainment. To be eligible, all you need to do is answer the three deadly difficult questions below. If the opening question above proved you don't test well under pressure, rest assured that help is here. All the answers you need can be found either at the game's official website, Jonathan Boakes' research case files, or Got Game's Lost Crown FAQ.

The contest will run for one full week, ending Monday, March 31st, and winners will be notified by midnight apparition… or maybe email, if that's more convenient.
