Highly acclaimed TV series Game of Thrones rocked a great collection of some of the best villains in television history. A villain can make or break the TV show. An ambitious villain makes the viewers praise his motivations, while some are purely sadistic. Iwan Rheonâs Ramsay Bolton was a mix of both, though more sadistic than ambitious at times. His performance was so spot on, the audience loved to hate him.
Ramsayâs cruelest technique involved making his victims think they have control and can escape from him. He would then chase them down and fed them to his hounds. Iwan Rheon is set to appear in a real-life video game, with almost the same grim settings, but his role is reversed.
Screamfest 4: The Krakenâs Revenge will see Rheon be issued instructions by players using smartphones or computers. The actor then responds to the instructions immediately via a live video link. The game is described as tense, frightening, and chillingly dark. It was created by John Zurhellen, who worked on games including Grand Theft Auto IV, Manhunt 1 & 2, and Red Dead Redemption.
âIâm used to playing a character that did all the controlling but now the tables are turned,â said Rheon, âIâll be at the mercy of people controlling my every move online from anywhere in the country, sending me from room to room in a particularly creepy location while Iâm hunted by a monster. I do wonder how many Kraken fans will send me to my doom and how many will save me!â
Rheon will be playable for two hours from 4 pm to 6 pm on 28 October. Tell us what youâll do with Rheonâs character if given a chance in the comments below!
