Welcome back to BURIED! I recommend that you read my other posts on the game before reading this part. The other posts have clues to where you need to go; this is more of a review of the experience.
This was the second game from MadPea Productions that I participated in, and after this, I feel like my honeymoon with MadPea games is over. What I mean by that is my initial thrill and excitement about participating in such has waned. Why? It may help if I compared it to the other game that I played – Blood Letters.
Welcome to Part III of BURIED! This is an interactive game produced by MadPea. I left off at Sn@tch because even though the clue seemed easy enough, for some reason I couldn’t find it right away. You may be able to see why once you go there. This will conclude the actual hunt coverage, but I wanted to make a separate post to talk about my view of this hunt.
This hunt took me about 8 hours to do over a 3 day period. The second day alone was about 5 hours.
Warning – spoilers ahead!
Welcome back to my coverage of BURIED, an interactive game produced by MadPea. I last left off at activating my tablet to be able to visit each location. So now I will be showing the locations of each capsule. Someone gave me a hint card as to where to find items, so I will include that as well. It was not clear if someone actually made up hints, or was this part of the hunt but someone generously complied them all into one notecard. I know stop #6 definitely has a hint giver. The hunt is still pretty tricky even with the hints, so I don’t think it spoiled anything. If someone says “Don’t you want to hug the teddy bear?” and there are like 5 teddy bears scattered across a 16k sqm store, you will still have to hunt lol.
After each stop your tablet will give a new map as to where the next item is. Does it help? You will see for yourself, but I will save my comments for later.

Hello everyone! I am doing another hunt from MadPea Productions since the last one was really fun ^^ This hunt is called BURIED, where you look for a person that has gone missing. This is an introduction from the MadPea website:
BURIED is a mystery game that will take the player into the world of geocaching to solve the mystery of the disappearance of a writer, Lily Morano. With twists and turns a plenty this isn’t just a hunt it’s a full on adventure with the player at the centre of attention.
Lily’s husband, Joshua Morano is offering a $500 000US reward for the first one to find his loving wife. The race is on as people are pouring in to the island of Pierus that used to be a popular camping ground. Grab yourself a boat and explore the group of islands owned by Lily and Joshua to find clues about what might have happened to Lily. Once you find enough information you will start a grid-wide search that will drive you to the edge of frustration.
Once again I will be giving clues as to where you need to go in order to continue the hunt. And believe me, you WILL need them. Unless you are just good at hunting for small items with very little to go on. I will be writing up a review of the game after I conclude my coverage, because there is a lot that I have to say regarding critique.
In order to start actually playing the game, you have to get enough clues to activate your tablet. Then it will be able to show the locations via geocaching. What I did in this case was to show you the general locations of where you need to go in order to find clues. You still need to actually find the clues.
Warning – spoilers ahead!
Hey guys! The end is here – the conclusion of Blood Letters. I finished it right at the beginning of the 26th, because I wanted to finish all of it. Just when I thought it was over, there was something else to solve.
I immensely enjoyed the game, and I am glad that I played it, thanks to a good friend of mine. My favorite days were the ones where we got to visit the apartments of the victims. I felt like a real detective looking for clues in the victims’ residences.
My hardest days:
Day 10 – slow rezzing at Cheeky Pea
Day 17 – was probably the hardest day because of what you had to do to discover the body
Day 20 – shouldn’t had been as hard as I made it out to be. I just didn’t pay close enough attention.
Days 24 and 25 – wasn’t as hard as it was trying to solve the puzzle. But I will still say Day 17 was the hardest.

Hey guys! I have to say, this game is getting harder and more disturbing. It doesn’t bother me as much because yes, we know this person is a psycho. But I can say with every day another detail is added to the puzzle as to how this came to be.

Even though I did not show the locations of the fortune cookies, they are at every location (even though some are tricky to find!). You can check out the MadPea website for a list of prizes.
I had to ask for help in the MadPea group for days 17 and 20. Day 17 was especially trying – it was my least favorite day. Since Day 13 is pretty disturbing, I will put it under the cut.
Hey guys! I have been doing MadPea’s “Blood Letters” game for the past several days. I would like to share my progress with you all. For more information on what Blood Letters is all about, you can check out my previous post here:https://monisworldsl.wordpress.com/2014/11/03/madpea-blood-letters

Hey guys! I have found another game to play, called Blood Letters. This is the first time I have played a game from MadPea, but apparently they have been putting on these games for a while. There was a lot of buzz around this game because it is 400L to get the HUD required to play the game.
One of the issues that I immediately saw was, suppose if someone is banned from one of the stores in the game? Rule number 10 states:
10. BANNED?
MadPea is not responsible if you are or get yourself banned
from a store/region and are not able to complete the hunt.
Please check the list of the participating stores before beginning
to make sure this is not an issue.
This is the list of vendors, with links to their main stores (according to search):

Make sure you check before you start! I do think 400L is a lot to pay upfront, so it’s definitely not a free game. However, with 25 prizes given out during the game, and an additional 25 prizes when you have completed it comes out to be less than 10L per prize. Luckily for me, someone was generous enough to pay for my HUD, with the condition that I blog about Blood Letters 😀 Thank you!
Vendor to buy the HUD
So, the first thing I did was to go to the CheckMate Inc office and pay the vendor above. The HUD will ask permission for it to teleport you. It’s a bit spammy if you don’t accept the dialogue right away. And then you go inside and start clicking various objects – I managed to get a computer that way ^^. Then finally you will see some notes hanging on a string (you can make it out in the background of the picture), and that is where your game begins. You have to go in order of the days, or else the HUD will tell you:
[09:16:57] Blood Letters HUD v1.0: You are ahead of the game, retrace your steps back.
Now I will show you some sneak peaks of the game, just so you know what is in store. Once again, I don’t think any of these are true spoilers, more like teasers, for you would have to play the game in order to understand what they mean.
Graphic items under the cut..so if you don’t like that stuff, stop now.
