A downloadable game

The afterlife is in shambles and someone needs to decide if the souls of the departed deserve eternal bliss (or everlasting discomfort) by judging their historical quotes. Are you up to the task?

The Ever Afterlife is a cosmic spa & resort where the spirits of the departed finally get their just desserts: eternal bliss – or everlasting discomfort. Here’s the kicker: these Lost Souls don’t remember who they were back when they were alive!

Under the snarky guidance of The Siren (who isn’t even supposed to work today, so her mood isn’t exactly sunny), you'll have a few seconds to read one controversial historical quote from the incognito Lost Soul - and a hint about who they were when they still walked this Earth - and decide where they belong.

... and rumor has it that some sneaky intruders are trying to find their way in.

By using the amazing Soul Swipe system, of course! Swipe left to send them to the Stygian Sauna, where the warmth of such amenity is too much of a good thing if you can’t leave… Or to the right to relocate them to the Elysian Spa, where babbling brooks and blue skies await them, which is a pretty fair reward if you’ve been a nice person in life. 

After Soul Swiping, you will find out who the real historical figure was all along - and you will get a chance to customize your Stygian Sauna and Elysian Spa and share it with your friends through instant messaging and social media.

So, what are you waiting for? Time is of the essence (even if the sense of urgency in the face of eternity is moot, but don’t let the Siren know we said that out loud.)
