Jake Stone is calm..for now.
Here’s another offering for our countdown to Halloween here on the site. It’s a FREE download from our friends at Carnival Comics. From the tradition of such classics as Funhouse of Horrors and Carnivals of Souls comes Murphy’s Law digital comic book for the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phone.
What is Murphy’s Law?
Murphy’s Law is the story of Ghost Writer ‘Jake Stone’ who visits a small town in New Mexico rumored to have strange paranormal occurrences. He drives to town to investigate a legend called “The Legend of the Haunted Murphy House.” He requests the local sheriff to take him to this fabled haunted house located in the outskirts of the town. And just when you thought it was safe to go to the house, things go south and the two characters end up in a place we cannot even talk about here. Is the house really haunted? Are there much more than ghosts inside? Is there an evil presence that can destroy their souls? Will they ever leave the house alive? These are questions that are left unanswered.
Page navigation is done by simply swiping the screen. To turn to the next page, just swipe the screen to the left as if you are turning the page. The screen will scroll from left to right with a new page coming in. If you want to go to the previous page you just read, just swipe the screen to the right.
My take on Murphy’s Law
Murphy’s Law is another wonderful and scary offering from the imaginative minds of Carnival Comics. The guys at Carnival Comics do know their stuff. The characters, scenery and color shades are so vividly drawn. You can really feel scared just looking at the pictures.
The story is somehow similar to this movie “1408” starred by John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson where a writer who makes a living writing books and visiting haunted houses checks in room 1408 of the Dolphin Hotel. Let’s just say the movie was very scary and we suggest you watch it. Back to the comic.
Murphy’s Law let you now exit it anytime. Just tap on the screen and two options will appear. You can choose “Back” to return to the comic or select “Options” then “Exit.” There was no feature like this in its first offering and we appreciate the programmers of this application for adding this all important feature.
But not all were fixed. We would have preferred to have the ability to jump from one page to another instead of swiping the screen until we get to our desired page. Programmers of Carnival Comics – please add this soon.
Hello Sherrif.
