LOST - Check out LOSTscape

A new episode of LOST is almost here, but while we’re waiting, why not play a little LOST scavenger hunt game?  LOSTscape is a new game on ABC.com where you search through the island looking for artifacts and items of significance in the world of the Oceanic 815 survivors. 

LOSTscape is actually a very cool little interactive feature.  You scroll through the island, and each item that you find has a brief explanation of its importance, what episodes the object has been featured in, and a video clip showing the item or object in use. There’s even a link if you want to watch the entire episode the object was first seen in. 

For example, as you scroll through the wreckage of Flight 815 on the beach, you can click on the malfunctioning jet turbine that was still running after the crash. Remember that thing? If you don’t, you can watch a video clip of that poor survivor getting sucked into the turbine and the whole thing blowing up. I could watch that clip all day. I’d be happy if that was all there was to the LOSTscape game and it was just the “Dude Gets Sucked Into Engine Game.” 

Go check out LOSTscape – it’s a fun way to catch up on LOST and to prod your memory about the mysteries of seasons past. Plus! You can enter a sweepstake to win a trip to the 2008 San Diego ComicCon, or “Nerd Prom” as we call it, where you can meet -- me! OK, that’s not actually part of the sweepstake, but I’ll be down at ComicCon this year, so if you do win – say hi. I’ll be the balding guy with the “Kiss Me I’m A Jedi” T-shirt.
