Note 1: This story is told from Sunset Shimmer's perspective.
When does a game become more than that? What if it becomes a game where you are in a race against time? What if you were trapped within the darkness, and you have to struggle to find a way to return to the light? When Pinkie Pie hosts a sleepover where all of her friends, they discover that she has found a board game unlike any they have seen before, and insists the group play it.
This game is interactive... where twists and turns abound... it is a video board game where one must face their greatest fear...
Note 2: This story involves the Mane Seven playing a board game known as Atmosfear, sometimes referred to as Nightmare in other regions. Rather than go into the history of the game, I'll provide two links. One is the article about this game on Wikipedia, and the other is a YouTube of the actual video that is used to play.
Atmosfear - YouTube video of the first game in the series: The Gatekeeper.
Atmosfear? That's a surprise I remember time ago playing it... I liked Elizabeth Bathory the vampire.

I don't think anyone has ever done something like this before, and because I've been on a recent Atmosfear kick, I decided to go through with this. The girls are going to have quite the experience, and hopefully they don't take the Gatekeeper's insults too seriously.
6554523 oh yes... I remember how grumpy was him... I liked it when he was saying "Buy a forest and lose in there" My version is spanish so the traduction could be lost a little, but well...
I remember this game. Think I still have it somewhere in storage.
DON'T BLINK, MAGGOT!
Wow, this was a punch in the nostalgia right here.

And that along with practically every other insult the Gatekeeper throws at you will be here in full force. It makes you wonder what kind of cousin Pinkie Pie has would give her such a game as this.

I have the first four games in my closet, and apart from number three, the others are all from the U.K.

For you, and all others here.
Oh my gosh I remember that game it was so fun! I thought the gatekeeper was hilarious
I can't wait to see where this goes nice work. Keep it up.
6555253 this game looks super fun and I love his accent I can't wait and see what you do to this I have never played the game myself but after doing some reaseach on it it looks pretty amazing

Fluttershy is going to have the most reactions given how timid she is, but then they're all going to have similar experiences especially when the Gatekeeper pops in out of nowhere. Also, I wanted to use the original VHS version as opposed to the DVD version, for I'm more familiar with the original as opposed to the remake.

Pinkie certainly has some unusual tastes when it comes to board games, or rather her unnamed cousin does.

Hmm interesting with sunset playing I bet we can tell what her night mare is
Also ive been working on a new fic idk if I should tie it in with my shorts or not but its on the same time line except this is how I ended up there in Equestria then again I also forgot about my fear unless I scratch that out and have a separate arc for it what do u think I should do?

No one is going to know whose nightmare belongs to who until the game is over, but I think Sunset's is pretty obvious to figure out based on what we know. As for the rest of what you said, why not send me a private message on here, and I'll see what I can do.
Hey, it's pronounced Blag-Oh.
Are you gonna continue the story?
Halloween is coming up, do you plan on continuing this?
How dare you leave this hanging?! I NEED MORE!!! This is just getting good! Don’t stop now!!!
