(SG) Assassination - Target #3: Lumbago Joe
« on: August 07, 2018, 07:14:30 pm »

ASSASSINATION
A suggestion game about murder for hire

What is this?
Welcome to Assassination! This is a suggestion game about assassinating your mark. This will be mostly text based, and the game progresses according to the suggestions you make. Everyone controls the protagonist.

I will try to accommodate your suggestions as best as I can. If a suggestion is denied, reasons will be given. I don't expect to have to deny too many suggestions, however, unless they're impossible to do.

Target #1: Mad Tony

You stand outside a three-story apartment that has seen better days. Above the front doors is a billboard displaying what was once an advertisement for alcohol, now torn to several pieces and covered in graffiti. The walls are not safe, either, and similar graffiti is everywhere on them. A man calling himself by the name of Mad Tony is to be assassinated, and he is one of many men that you will have to eliminate in order to gain your freedom, or die trying.

You anxiously take a look around in the general vicinity of the apartment where Mad Tony resides. How did you go from an average life to becoming a novice hitman? Whatever the reasons were, this is no time to sit back and recollect the past when you've got a job to do. How will you know what your target looks like? Is he aligned with the gangsters that are known to be living in this apartment? Is he aware that someone is out to kill him?

You've been provided with a poorly maintained pocket pistol from the 70's with terrible ergonomics, making it hard to grip. To make things worse, you've only got five rounds and no spare ammunition. Are your creditors in the underworld trying to ensure your failure? Seems that whether you fail or succeed at getting rid of Mad Tony, the outcome will still be favorable for them...



In front of you is the front door. A man wearing gang colors and a bandanna leans on the walls by the entrance, smoking a cigarette. You can see a poorly-concealed pistol tucked in the back of the man's waistband.

To the left is a small body of water filling up a moderately-sized hole in the ground, and the side windows of the apartment. You also see a neighboring building across the street with large pipes on the roof that pass by close enough to the apartment windows on the third floor.

To the left and ahead past the apartment is an alleyway.

To the right is what looks like a power generator for the apartment, and a ladder leading to a grating. The grating seems to allow access to the back of one of the second-floor rooms.

Further to the right is the back of a neighboring building, with a ladder to the roof.



HEALTH: Healthy. You are not injured.

Inventory:
[.22 LR] Crappy pocket pistol (5/5 rounds, poor ergonomics, concealable)

Ammunition:
.22 LR: None!

Sneak around and have a look at the generator. Maybe we could disable it.

Look around in any trashcans for glass bottles, pipes, anything that can be used as a melee weapon.

At the very least we should recall what we were told about Mad Tony.

You try to remember what little you were told about Mad Tony. You remember that he has a tattoo of a bloody knife on his back.

Look around in any trashcans for glass bottles, pipes, anything that can be used as a melee weapon.

You dig around in a trash can outside the apartment, and find a half-full beer bottle someone threw away, along with a broken flashlight.

Sneak around and have a look at the generator. Maybe we could disable it.

While the gangster is distracted, you slip past him and take a look at the generator. You see an "OFF" switch for the generator, and could possibly turn it off at the risk of drawing unwanted attention from the gangster... If he ever gets off his phone and realizes that the lights are out.



In front of you is the front door. A man wearing gang colors and a bandanna leans on the walls by the entrance, smoking a cigarette. You can see a poorly-concealed pistol tucked in the back of the man's waistband.

You climb the ladder, open the grate, and squeeze yourself in. You find yourself in a narrow room with a storage locker and a door in front of you. Behind the door, you hear loud snoring and the blaring of a television.



From the narrow room on the second floor: (Current location):

In front of you is a door.

Behind you is the ladder that you used to get in.

Open the storage locker, and try to peek through the door's keyhole/a crack/bottom.

Open the storage locker, and try to peek through the door's keyhole/a crack/bottom.

You open the storage locker to find a bunch of pill bottles, some .38 Special ammunition, a .38 revolver, bags of cocaine, some cigarettes, a lighter, and a bloodstained switchblade. With the storage locker open, you peek through the keyhole of the door and see what appears to be a man sleeping on a sofa.



From the narrow room on the second floor: (Current location):

In front of you is a door. Behind the door is an unknown man sleeping on a sofa.

Behind you is the ladder that you used to get in.

None for now

Any future games will be simpler in nature, I have a bad habit of biting off more than I can chew. Also hoping for more players in them.

I have Discord for my games now(not necessary to play, tho might be easier to contact me): https://discord.gg/DuaARAZ

Get the .38 revolver and .38 Special ammunition and the switchblade.

You pick up the .38 revolver, the ammunition for it, and the bloody switchblade. You are now better armed, but don't get overconfident now. You're still an untrained average Joe (or Jane) with no practical combat experience.

Knock on the door, wake the sleeping man up.  When he opens the door to check who it is, stab him with the knife.
