Greystone - Step Inside a Murder Mystery

Your iPod - Now a Crime Fighting Device!

Greystone is a murder mystery like no other. This murder mystery will blow you away because this time you are the detective. In this interactive crime novel  you have to beat the clock as you seek to solve the murder case. Who are the suspects? Where is the evidence? Whodunit? You're the detective; you decide. Move quickly, though. The killer is at large and may choose you to be the next victim. This time, the game really is afoot.

"Greystone will very easily be more than that book you just couldn't put down." - Joy Spear, the Murder and Mayhem Book Club

"An Eerie Game." - The Daily Record of New Jersey

 

Enter a Fictional Nightmare of Murder and Mystery!

Patients and staff are being systematically slaughtered at Greystone.  After three murders in just two weeks leave local police stumped, they turn to the New Jersey State Police for help.  You, a detective with the state police, enter Greystone undercover as a patient.  Since everyone in Greystone is a suspect nobody on Greystone's staff knows your true identity.  As far as everyone is concerned, you're just another patient with problems.

 
Exploring Greystone will be challenging as there are acres of land to be explored containing forests, trails, ponds, basketball courts and even a softball field! You will make your way through underground tunnel systems, many buildings, both active and abandoned, and even the surrounding neighborhood in search of clues, evidence and witnesses as you pursue the criminal.  Interacting with several key characters in the story you're challenged to ask the right questions to the right people in addition to knowing when to tip your hand with critical evidence you'll gather. When you make your move and and arrest someone, you have to be 125% positive your case is strong enough to get your suspect convicted. If you fail, the perp might walk.
 
Parts of Greystone may appear haunting; you'll be walking the halls and corridors of areas long since closed as you strive to solve the mystery of Greystone. 

Research So Exhaustive, The Attorney General of New Jersey Noticed.

Howard Sherman, Implementor at large, has conducted extensive research on the grounds of Greystone as well as interviews with past and present Greystone staff members and patients. This comprehensive research  adds a new dimension of realism to this fictional title.  Wrapping this within Howard's unique writing style makes Greystone an unforgettable work. While the Greystone Psychiatric Hospital is a very real place, Malinche's Greystone is a work of Interactive Fiction which can be enjoyed for weeks and months to come.

When The Daily Record of New Jersey ran a front page story on Malinche's Greystone right before the title launched, it was as if a Howitzer shot rocked the real-world Greystone.  The CEO of the actual Greystone Psychiatric Hospital and many staff members were almost blown out of their chairs (You did know that this interactive fiction title is based on a real place, didn't you?) Days later, a letter  from the Attorney General's office arrived at the Malinche offices.  Not wishing to ruffle anyone's feathers, Howard and the Attorney General had a friendly (no, really!) dialog and fully cooperated. The Attorney General had valid concerns that were all addressed to the complete satisfaction of everyone.

Scroll down a bit and you'll find a link to Howard's designer blog. You can read all about his trips to Greystone and view an entire gallery of pictures taken on the grounds of the real Greystone. The end result makes Greystone a must-read thanks to its powerful realism.

Greystone is off-limits to the general public today. Owning this iPod game is truly a special opportunity to become an insider and explore the secrets of Greystone that nobody else can.

"I've had a role as an undercover detective before but I was woefully unprepared for Greystone! As the intense and highly detailed world of Howard Sherman's Greystone unfolded around me, the nightmarish story continued to change with each decision I made." - Jack van Landingham, Hollywood actor
