With this season of Lost winding down, we fans can expect a cliff-hanger season finale followed by a summer of anticipation of the new season in the fall. But now the creators of the show have hit on a way to satisfy our thirst for Lost lore. They are Lost Experience as way to satiate fans over the summer.
Lost Experience is an Alternate Reality Game or ARG. An ARG is a game in which a fictional reality is explored in the real one via a variety of media. The game begins on 3 May here in the States during the episode called "Two for the Road", which is centered around Ana-Lucia. An 800 numbers will be shown sometime during the broadcast and calling it will begin the game.
The game's premise will be rooted in Lost history, but ABC said that you don't need to have watched the show to get in on the game, which will feature new characters and delve deeper into the manipulative Hanso Foundation that was introduced in season two as the benefactor of the button-pushing Dharma Initiative.
There is no grand prize for those who manage to piece the puzzle together, but ABC promises that those who play will end up learning some of the island's better-kept secrets.
Should be fun. One week to go...
