Lost ARG clues…

Sadly it seems this ARG is unofficial.  That’s not to say it’s not worth playing.  I’ve enjoyed the creativity shown by the writer(s).  Just don’t expect this ARG to have any bearing on the next season.

I’m slowly getting into the new Lost alternate reality game currently running on Twitter and various sites around the internet. This is what I’ve learned so far.  I’ll continue to update as I learn more…

@FleurDeNoir = Jacob?

  • Jacob’s Bio is simply: “Genesis 27:41”
  • Genesis 27:41 reads:  So Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing that his father had given him. Esau said to himself, “The time to mourn for my father is near. Then I’ll kill my brother Jacob.”
  • Jacob seems to be hinting at his return or rebirth

@elliotgraves = Elliot Graves

  • an overworked Ajira Air employee whose brother recently disappeared (like his father and grandfather before him…)
  • Simeon Hobbes is somehow linked to the disappearance of all 3
  • all 3 Graves men appear to have joined a secretive group (dharma?) related to Widmore Industries

@simeonhobbes = Simeon Hobbes (follower of Jacob?)

  • involved in the recruitment of members of the secretive group mentioned above
  • exceptionally long-lived (dharma life extension program? or gift of Jacob?)

@epithetalpha = Aidoneus (Jacob’s nemesis)

  • Aidoneus is a pseudonym for Hades

Find 815

Nan and I stayed up until almost 2a.m. last night playing the LOST alternate reality game “Find 815.” The game was a lot of fun, but because we got into it late, we had the advantage of being able to go through the content in a non-linear fashion. (though I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who hasn’t yet seen the site.) If you’re a fan of the LOST TV series, you should check out this site before it goes away. (which is supposedly in another 7 weeks or so) There are a lot of clues and bits of information that tie directly into the LOST series. Even if you ‘re not a fan, the puzzles and clue hunts are fun by themselves.
