Ultima: Nick's Tale



In Jumanji, even though many calamities ensue during the movie and the animated series, it must be noticed that the source of all of this evil is none other than the game itself. The titular Jumanji board game is a villain in itself due to its curse of bringing the jungle's dangers and traps into the real world for whoever plays the game to experience it.Contents [show] RoleFilmThe game's origin is unclear, but it can be assumed it was probably cursed by some sort of tribe, incorporating the dangers of the jungle inside of it. In the beginning in 1869, two boys buried it. When one boy asks, "What happen if someone digs it up?" the other says, "God have mercy on that soul." After some time, the game is found one hundred years later in the year 1969 by a young boy named Alan Parrish and his girlfriend Sarah Whittle. They both start playing the game, until the game starts to show its dangers by incorporating bats in the house's fireplace that chase Sarah down the street, while Alan is sucked into the game until another player gets a 5 or 8 in the dices. 26 years later, two other kids, Judy and Peter Shepherd, move into the house Alan lived before and find the game, unleashing more and more dangers as they progress, but also releasing Alan when Peter rolls the dice and gets a 5. They find Sarah and get her to play the game, and after escaping a stampede, a vicious hunter, and carnivorous plants, Alan manages to win the game and send everything back, including time itself, allowing him to hide the game once again. Alan and Sarah throw the Jumanji game into a river, where it drifts away.However, it was seen in the beach and two French children heard the music and they are about to find it. Animated seriesIn the series, the game's role is more proeminent. The game is not just an object, but a sentient being, capable of getting angry and receiving information. The game also doesn't send the dangers to the real world, but transports the players into it's interior universe, meaning that if one doesn't solve the riddle the game proposes, the player will be trapped inside the game forever. Inside the deepest parts of the jungle, one will find a new meaning to "game mechanics", as a giant set of gears and machinery will be in the game's outer reaches, keeping everything under control.
