Pick of the Day: Colossus Rising
Today’s Pick of the Day is one of the original experiences crafted by Sansar Studios, called Colossus Rising. Surprisingly, it’s not listed up near the top of the Sansar Atlas listings, among Linden Lab’s featured experiences! You must scroll pretty much all the way to the bottom of the Atlas to find this one, but it’s worth looking for! This experience reminds me of the famous classic Cyan puzzle games Myst and Riven, so if you loved playing those, you’ll love Colossus Rising.
You are transported to a rocky, barren desert landscape. The wind whistles past you, and red dust fills the air, as you explore the remains of a mysteriously abandoned civilization. Everywhere there is the clank and hum of machinery; you see large canvas windmills and gigantic metal gears turning. You climb the wooden ramps and scaffolding, carefully balance your way across a long, narrow beam strung high above the ground, and jump onto the automated gondolas that move back and forth between raised platforms. Tusks, bleached bones, and the discarded armour of giants litter the landscape.
Come, restless wanderer, and puzzle over what happened here. In my opinion, this is still one of the best experiences in Sansar. Well worth a visit!
Scene of the Day: Astro Port
Today’s Scene of the Day is this image by Ciaran Laval (here’s his Flickr photostream) of a futuristic Sansar experience, created by Mold3D, called Astro Port.
This picture was posted to the largest Sansar-related Flickr group called, simply, Sansar. The administrator of this group is none other than the irrepressible Second Life landlady and celebrity Jo Yardley, and there are currently 162 members. Already, there are 300 pictures in this group. People sure have been busy taking photos in Sansar!
