Welcome, Curators, to our latest museum location reveal: the Countys peculiar Wailon Lodge. With spectral ratings off the charts, the Lodge is easily one of the most haunted places in the County, but as Curator youre up for a challenge, right? Join the ghostly front-of-house, Winston Wailon, as you restore the Lodge and perhaps even realise Winstons dreams of housing guests (albeit of the spirit variety). The Lodge joins Memento Mile and Passwater Cove as one of the many museum locations youll take under your wing as the Countys Curator. Now, lets take a closer look at the hauntingly cosy Lodge!

Back from the Dead

The grand, yet abandoned, location wasnt always so deadly quiet. No, in its prime, it served as a quaint, cosy holiday location, and although it proved unpopular, you cannot deny the buildings grandeur. Too remote, too old-fashioned, and too near the rift to the Netherworld, the place now lies in ruin. Seemingly intentionally closed to the living, the Lodge is overshadowed by rumours of hauntings, obscuring any rare memory of the places original purpose. Numerous spooky reports include tales of furniture moving by itself, alongside the sound of a dreadful train whistle echoing across the valley.

Expert in a Dying Field

Paranormal investigators heavily advise that, as Curator, you ensure the historic remnants of the Netherworld are handled delicately, respecting the dark history of the relics. We wouldnt want any attached entities to hold a grudge now, would we?
Youll have the chance to prove yourself, exploring whether this old haunted hotel can truly transform into an actual museum. For years, the Lodge was bothered by wandering ghosts, so why not invite them to stay? As you design immersive Polterguest Rooms for these spirits, and embark on expeditions into the neighbouring Netherworld Rift, youll hopefully find that horror can be quite the crowd-pleaser. Each supernatural exhibit has its own unique presence. Just take this childrens doll, for example. With its lovely pigtails and rosy cheeks, it would surely catch the eye of any young Pointian; but alas, its far from ordinary.
shudder Now, thats quite enough spookiness for one afternoon! As soon as you have the keys, make sure you head out and get exploring, will you? The Countys Department of Culture would love to hear about any unusual exhibit behaviour, so be sure to drop your reports in the usual pigeonhole. Happy [strike]haunting[/strike] exploring!

As fledgling curators, you have the task of designing and refining your very own museums to create the ultimate guest experience. Coordinate Experts on far-flung expeditions to discover new Exhibits, generating Buzz to entice droves of knowledge-hungry guests who will expect top info-tainment if they’re to leave impressed. This is all while you keep your Exhibits safe, rooms clean, staff happy… and children off the dinosaur bones.



As Curator, the design and management of your expanding museum is in your hands! Send your team of partially trained Experts on Expeditions in search of rare and mostly well-preserved artefacts. When (and hopefully not if) your Experts return from their adventure, proudly display their fantastic finds in your museum.

You’ll unlock new locations as you decide where the next adventure takes you.



Your work doesn’t end there; Exhibit maintenance is crucial. While some Experts are gallivanting across Two Point County and beyond, you’re in charge of managing staff back home to ensure Exhibits and the museum stay in tip-top condition. If taking care of the carnivorous Chomper isn’t enough, there are also meddling thieves to watch out for. Thieves, and more frequently, children, are known for touching and grubbing up the displays, so make sure enough security is guarding your prized collection!



Get creative to design your museum layout your way! You have decorative freedom, so design thematic areas to guide your guests’ visit. Splash paint and lay carpet as you lovingly arrange each prehistoric fern, potentially melting iceman, and dinosaur remains wherever you see fit.



Once you’ve created the perfect atmosphere, arrange guided tours with custom routes led by a charismatic Expert. Tours are a fantastic way to enrich your guests' experience. To keep guests enthused, showcase Exhibits with the highest Buzz - those that are top quality, provide ample info and beautiful decorations are likely to attract the most donations!



Guests know best! The different types of guests who will frequent your museum may have different interests, but they do have some things in common… they expect the place to be kept clean, have plenty of refreshments, ample toilets, and a gift shop filled with goodies. And, of course, they need to be dazzled with knowledge of your Exhibits, which are kept well-maintained…



Two Point County will bring a variety of guests to your museum, and they all hope to discover their new favourite Exhibit… From dino fanatics and botany buffs to haunted horror seekers, you’ll need to cater to their personal preferences to meet their needs. By exceeding their expectations, you can keep them engaged, leading to longer visits, increased donations, and glowing reviews!
