I AM A PLAYER IN THE GAME-WHETHER I WANT TO BE OR NOT.... My name is Quaid Loman. I don't know what the Game is or who is running it. I don't know where I am-although it seems to be some isolated island resort-and I don't know how I got here. There are nineteen total strangers here with me who appear to have no more idea than I do what is going on. We have discovered no means of communicating with the outside world, and no boat or plane with which to escape from here. Although we have no memory of it, all of us seem to have signed the following contract: AGREEMENT BETWEEN QUAID LOMAN AND THE PLAYERS OF THE GAME: 1. QUAID LOMAN is a player in the Game. 2. The players must participate in the Game. 3. The players may agree to change the rules. 4. The players must obey the rules of forfeit. 5. The winner of the Game is the last player who has not forfeited. One of our number has already refused to play the Game. Now he is dead....
