***IMPORTANT!*** This Feature Film box is not playable by itself and requires you to also own the Core Box.

Van Ryder Games Overview
The media has become fascinated by an unorthodox killer being referred to as The Tormentor on account of her method of placing her victims in deathtraps that are escapable... in theory. Why she does this is still being investigated, but people are dying and now you find yourself in one of her deathtraps... 

Marrek Warehouse is a mid-sized warehouse that handles shipping and fulfillment for a variety of department store brand catalog sales. The operators have won awards for the efficiency of their floor layout and particularly the formation of the pallet racks. The warehouse security system is state-of-the-art with a timed locking and unlocking mechanism for all of the exits including the bay doors. The management (or whoever is in charge, ahem the killer) can control everything both coming into, and leaving, the warehouse.

Horror Movie Classification
Trap Horror / Survival Horror

The primary movie connection is unmistakably Saw (2004).

The Tormentor fills the Jigsaw role: rather than simply hunting victims, he places them into carefully constructed situations where survival depends upon making difficult choices and escaping elaborate traps.

Marrek Warehouse also fits perfectly into the grimy industrial aesthetic associated with the Saw franchise—an isolated location filled with machinery, hidden dangers, and the uncomfortable realization that almost everything around you may have been placed there for a reason.

What separates this style of horror from a traditional slasher is the killer's approach. The Tormentor doesn't simply want his victims dead. The ordeal itself is part of the point.

Closest Movie Comparison: Saw (2004)

Secondary Movie Comparison: Saw II (2005), which expands the concept into a larger trapped environment filled with interconnected challenges.
