I finally got my own copy of Secret of the Scarlet Hand and started playing it for the first time since my library stopped checking out computer games years ago. And wow I forgot how bad this museum is.
If you can't use stairs you can't see the museum.
There are no handrails or guardrails anywhere.
You have to be able to both read the signs and listen to the audio guide in order to get all the information.
Half the artifacts aren't labeled at all.
The only water fountain I've seen is behind the employees only door.
There are apparently no restrooms.
It's dimly lit meaning that it's hard to read the signs or look at the artifacts.
There's only one place to play each game, and you need to play each game to progress through the museum, which definitely causes backups.
What if a computer goes down?
The maze game would probably be a challenge for people like my dad who get motion sick.
There are no fire exits and half the pyramid relies on keycards to move on. In a fire, going all the way back up from the bottom just to go back down would be really time consuming.
Somebody's gonna accidentally leave their kid stuck on the wrong floor of the pyramid, I just know it.
There's not even any doors leading outside besides the front door and the loading dock. There should be an emergency exit in the garden at least.
The stairs where you need to use a glow stick to see are an accident waiting to happen. On my play-through Nancy DID fall down those stairs.
There's probably other things I've forgotten and I'm sure I'm not the first to point any of this out but seriously what is this museum but a problem waiting to happen?

Don't come to Port Charlove with me
It is a guaranteed bilingual call to Eme4ald CiT-E
Curyissss
See if you didn't have ears, you wouldn't realize there isn't quite a spelling that can really capture the slow Mexican drawl in with the thoughts of it.
There was always a certain want for you to bask in my light I suppose, 💞.
The former could be transient of birds floating around a head after being whacked with a Hammer
Except some Lust/Love trance that is beyond symbols on a screen.

Love how many kids books have always been about mystery solving because that's literally what it's like growing up. You don't know anything. There appear to be all these secrets. No one will explain them to you. Adults are completely useless. Might as well get an Aztec artifact out of it as well as self-discovery.

i just watched someone saying "christianity is and always will be the cultural appropriation of religions" and they mentioned the resurrection, which surprises me a little. do you know what they could be referring to? they also called it a very common trope and i'm no theologian, don't know that much about other religions or mythology, so maybe you could help?
resurrection narratives are absolutely not unique to christianity. there are resurrection narratives in the religion of ancient egypt (osiris), greece (adonis, zagreus, dionysus, and attus), and sumer (dumuzid and inanna). all of these predate christianity by centuries. to consider resurrection myths appropriation is, however, rather ignorant: the mythologies of the ancient near east are absolutely woven together, to the point where they are almost indistinguishable from each other, especially in the early history of the hebrews. the roman empire was heavily influenced by hellenic culture, religion, and philosophy. consider dionysus, the god of wine: plutarch stated that the stories of osiris and dionysus were identical and that the secret rituals asociated with them were obviously paralleled: the second century AD saw the emergence of greco-egyptian pantheons where the god serapis was synonymous with osiris, hades, and dionysus. this is also similar to the interrelationship between inanna, ishtar, asherah, astarte, and multiple other near eastern female deities (and she likely played an influence in the development of lilith as well). how much did the cult of dionysus influence later rites of the wine and the eucharist in early christianity, especially given that within fifty years of christ's death most christians were greeks? romulus and remus were said to have been born to a virgin, and so was the founder of zoroastrianism, zoroaster, a religion that influenced platonic philosophy and all abrahamic faiths.
christianity is more guilty of appropriation that most other faith practices of appropriation because of the crudeness and hatefulness with which it borrowed judaism and then turned on the jews. but attempting to divide western and near eastern religious traditions into pure (original) and impure (appropriated) is next to impossible. otherwise we can start trying to particularize everything as either pure or impure and discard what we deem as "impure" or unoriginal because we think it is valueless, hackneyed, or unethical. religion does not work like that. christianity does require critical consumption and practice because it has both appropriated judaism and because the way in which it exerted itself as a dominant religion over other faith practices. and the appropriation of judaism must be especially viewed as troubling, because judaism cannot be compared, historically, to religions like those of ancient egypt and greece because until the state of israel it was never a dominant or state religion, and the fact that it survived some odd thousand years without being recognized as a state religion is part of why it's particularly interesting. of course, that has changed now, but this ask isn't about israel/palestine and i won't dwell on it this issue much except to reaffirm that christianity appropriating an oppressed minority religion that emerged out of colonial contexts is very different than christianity utilizing aspects of ancient greek religion or zoroastrianism, and also different from jesus being included in islam, for instance.
interestingly, quetzalcoatl, from the ancient aztec religion, was the patron of priests and a symbol of resurrection. this gestures to the hidden sacred, eliade's hierophany: the hidden holiness, the sacrality and beingness of something beyond ourselves, that underlies all existence, with its own explicit truths that emerge consistently in faith practices that, unlike those of the near east, never interacted. maybe we all carried the same stories out of the cradle of civilization; maybe there is a perpetual and accessible truth that transcends boundaries. i don't know. but everything is borrowed. everything is copy. humanity is not capable of true originality: and isn't that beautiful? everything is taken in communion. everyone is interconnected. everyone wants to believe something, and we seem to be universally compelled by the same truths, motifs, meanings, and stories.

MAD SCIENTIST LOVE STORY
They are called Inventors. Those with the Spark possess a special gift: they can create machines and contraptions that bend the very laws of the physical world, performing feats that should by all rights be impossible. But each Inventor also suffers some sort of unique "Spark Madness," and because of this they have a reputation as Mad Scientists; wild and unpredictable. To help young Inventors develop their talents to serve mankind, the International University of Inventors (or IUI) was founded. Each year, new students arrive at the University, ready and eager to hone their special talent. This year sees two such young Inventors: Dillan, an unassuming young man with dreams of world conquest, and Noreen, a girl who views the world through the lens of anime tropes and cliches. Their lives are irrevocably changed when they are both assigned to same Workshop class, and Noreen realizes that Dillan is the sole male student. This could mean only one thing: Noreen is a living in a harem show. But, strangely, nobody is acting like they should. Well, if they won't behave accordingly, then Noreen will just have to pick up the slack. WARNING: Mad Scientist Love Story contains depictions of the following: foul language, mature content, misapplication of quantum mechanics, diversity, hurt feelings, young love, racial tension, homosexuality, heterosexuality, bisexuality, pansexuality, awkward conversations, aromanticism, romanticism, frank discussion of emotions, college life, blasphemy, hypocrisy, neurodivergence, strange new feelings, technobabble, fragile masculinity, legally-distinct parody names, violations of the laws of thermodynamics, alternate history, graphic sexual content, punk rock, embarrassing situations, anime jargon, drunk and disorderly conduct, robot on robot violence, polyamory, numerous affronts to good taste, and Canada.

THE GHOSTS IN THE FLAMES
For centuries, the Four Kingdoms have lived in fear of the dragon Raksen-Kal, who roosts upon the peak of the Black Mountain.

Shivuri is the youngest princess of Endaru, the smallest and poorest of the Four Kingdoms. Today, her cousin is sent to the dragon, and in four years' time, she will be as well. As the day of her death draws ever closer, the young princess seeks solace in darkness, and explores the forbidden art of witchcraft.
