You start as '''Russell Edgley''', who has just been hired by landlord and dean '''Jack Royce'''. You're here to teach exceptional and troubled children, working for room and board as well as a paycheck. However, the place is in the middle of nowhere, [[ItsQuietTooQuiet deathly quiet]], and it seems strangely devoid of children.

When '''Russell''' finally starts encountering the children, he wishes he hadn’t. They seem to alter the reality around them, creating the types of childish monsters one might expect – a '''witch''', '''Bloody Mary''', something lurking in the dark, a '''ghost''', and other ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight.

''Red Rover'' is a [[PlayByPostGames Play-by-post game]] still in its early stages of gameplay, found [[http://wecallrussellover.tumblr.com/tagged/he-is-not-calling-you-yet/chrono here]]. It is a retelling of its original iteration, ''[[Roleplay/WhatTimeIsItMrWolf What Time Is It, Mr Wolf?]]''.

You start as '''Russell Edgley''', who has just been hired by landlord and dean '''Jack Royce'''. You're here to teach exceptional and troubled children, working for room and board as well as a paycheck. However, the place is in the middle of nowhere, [[ItsQuietTooQuiet deathly quiet]], and it seems strangely devoid of children.

When '''Russell''' finally starts encountering the children, he wishes he hadn’t. They seem to alter the reality around them, creating the types of childish monsters one might expect – a '''witch''', '''Bloody Mary''', something lurking in the dark, a '''ghost''', and other ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight.

[[CreepyChild The children aren’t much better.]]

'''Russell''' has to round up the remaining children, eliminate the monsters trapping them there, and get them all past Mr. Wolf... but he needs you to guide him through it.
