stormesp,

I had never heard of this game, pretty cool concept. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fv9t5zg3O_Y This is the video the article seems to use as a reference in most of its images.

FalseMyrmidon,

I mostly heard that it was boring at the time. Which was unfortunate, the concept was cool.

Yeah, Majestic was incredibly interesting because it was an attempt to create an Alternate Reality Game (ARG) that was more than just a marketing campaign and could support itself financially. Its failure led to ARGs being abandoned as standalone games and ARGs mostly remained marketing which - ultimately - led to a slow, but inevitable decline of the ARG as a genre when the marketing money dried up.

I’ve been trying to figure out the name of this game for a long time. My roommate played this in college and he loved it. It was fun to watch him play and interact with it.
