Nightmare: The Tim and Geoff Version is a fan-made "booster tape" for the original [[Nightmare/Atmosfear]] game. Compared to the original game, which attempted a somewhat serious tone for the most part, this video has much more of a humorous feel, with bizarre events and a more playful host.

Approximate Running Time: 60 Minutes

== Host ==

[[The Gatekeeper]], as played by Geoffrey Maxfield, is a very unpredictable host, creating events that vary between the standard fare and the spectacularly weird, occasionally even playing with the expectations of veterans of the original game. At the beginning of the video, he claims that he is taking over the game because all of the other Gatekeepers have the night off, making it clear that this is a different Gatekeeper from the one in the official games. Over the course of the game, he grows a beard.

Arjak: finished transcript

Pre-Game - So, you want to play my game, do ya? Hmph! Well, I'm flattered, I truly am! *Chuckles* But I digress. Welcome! Welcome to your nightmare! I am GATEKEEPER! I will be your Gatekeeper for this evening. All the other Gatekeepers have the night off, so I'm filling in, but they will be back tomorrow, so don't get any stupid ideas! I know how you idiots think! Hmm. I see you've all been marked with a number and stained with a color! I will be referring to you by those traits that you hold so dear. When I call you by your number or your color, you must answer, "Yes'm!" I feel like punishing one of you right now, but I don't want to feel like a killjoy, so I'm just going to punish two of you! *Chuckles* Whoever has the lowest number and the highest number, answer me, now! Time's up. If you did not answer "Yes'm" in time, you will receive a key! *Laughs* Take that, you overachievers! Now get ready to enter your worst nightmare.

0:31 - Uhh...I think I forgot a few things...All of you randomly choose the Chosen One, and figure who's the oldest and who's the youngest, OK? Surprise me! It can't all be the same person! Just straighten it all out before I come back, alright? *Snaps Finger* Go!

1:40 - Stop! Got all that figured out now? Good, OK, good. Chosen One! Hmph! Your friends have just thrown you under the bus! Hoo, hoo! It is a doozy! Black Hole for you, buddy! *Chuckles* In you go! You just sit there, OK?

3:00 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! Time's up. If you answered "Yes'm" in time, you get three Time Cards! Hmph! You thought I was going to let you out, Chosen One? *Chuckles* Wrongo!

5:20 - Ohh, all right! Get out of that Black Hole. You just look so pathetic in there, with your puppy dog eyes! Ooh! Hm!

6:42 - Stop! You know, I kinda like those Time Cards...I think everybody's going to get three of them! Heh. I am having fun tonight! Yeah!

7:58 - Stop! Who's turn is it next? Answer me! I am thinking of a number between one and ten. What is it? Well? Time's up! Was the number the same number as the person setting next to you on the right side? If so, then you receive a key! If not, lose a turn!

10:20 - Stop! This is for everyone on a gravestone marked with an "X". You all get a Fate Card. Hm! Use it in poor health...

12:19 - Stop! Old One! You're going to play a game, now; just you and me, understood? Good! I'm glad that your brain hasn't completely shut down yet. You will roll the die five times, and you must not get a digit from your age...and if you do, huh, well I guess you have to start over. The game will not continue until you achieve this task.

14:31 - Uh...I release you from...the, uh...Black Hole?

16:26 - Stop! Everybody take a turn to roll the die. You will be rewarded or punished severely from what you roll.

The following text appears on-screen to give the result of a player's roll:

1 - Black Hole

2 - Receive a Key

3 - Do a Little Dance

4 - Get Down Tonight

5 - Receive a Time Card

6 - Receive a Fate Card

19:22 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! Lose a turn. Just 'cause!

22:46 - Stop! Chosen One! Send someone to the Black Hole! Good, that's better! Now we are going to play a game, just you and me! Pick a number between one and six! Now roll the die. Was that the number you chose? If it was, get in the Black Hole and our game is over. If not, then pick another number and roll the die again! Was that the number you chose? If not, you'll receive a key! But if it was, the maggot you sent to the Black Hole gets freedom and a key!

25:46 - STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP! Whew! Whoa! You guys are going way too fast! Let's have you all go back five spaces, alright? But you don't get anything for it!

27:49 - I release you from the Black Hole.

31:30 - Stop! Where's the Young One? Where? Where!? Answer me! Oh, there you are! I missed you there, with you being so young and small...and weak. WEAAAAK! I want you to flip a coin. Now! I call Heads! Did you win? If you did, you get to take the next key that the Old One gets! But if you lost, well, the Chosen One gets your next key!

35:15 - *Wearing a ridiculous hat* Stop! *Pause* Who laughed? WHO LAUGHED!? Anybody who laughed will lose a turn for that! Jerks!

37:40 - Stop! None of you may continue until you've rolled your color! *Long Pause* Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up...

38:29 - Okay, um, I'm sorry, I...I don't know where I was going with that one. Carry on, maggots!

40:04 - Everyone from the Black Hole is released, with a Time Card for their trouble!

42:14 - Yowza! Whose turn is it next? Alright, come on, come on! Who is it? Alright...Give me your wallet! Come on, come on! I want you to take out your wallet, and give it to me! Just put it in the box that the game came in, then close the lid. Come on! Come on, I don't have all night! Come on! Come on! Alright? Good! Alright, let's just see what we've got here... *reaches down, pulls out the player's wallet, and opens it* Huh, OK, alright...Ooh, ooh! *searches the wallet* Oh, what am I gonna buy with this!? There's nothin...oh, whatever! Well... *pulls out clipboard and pen and starts writing* ...I guess I'll just have to write down this credit card number for future reference here, but... *Sighs* ...Whatever. *Pulls out Driver's License* Aww, look at this ID Card! This picture doesn't do you any justice! I mean, you are much uglier in person! *Puts license back in wallet* Oh well, whatever. You can get your wallet back! *Throws down wallet* If you had more than five bucks in that wallet, you get a key.

44:49 - I release you from the BlackHole-o-tron!

46:57 - Stab! Alright, whose turn is it next? It's your lucky day! Everybody, except you, is taken to the Black Hole! You just keep taking your turn until I get back, OK?

47:52 - Stop! Man, I bet everybody's really angry at you now, Kid! *Chuckles* Playing this whole game by your own lonely, stupid self! Pfft! Game's over, buddy...for you! Now that everyone else is released from the Black Hole, they get to decide your punishment! Either you can lose all your keys, lose all your cards, or you get to take a trip to the Black Hole! Decide amongst yourselves!

50:00 - I release you from the Black Hole...in time to play a little game. You feel like Havoc? I feel like some Havoc! Let's play some Havoc! Everybody take a Fate and Time Card. Things get a little tricky from here on out!

50:38 - Stop! Chosen One, steal a key from the Old One. That maggot wasn't going to use it, anyway!

51:09 - Stop! Old One, steal a key from the Young One! Tough cookies, Kid!

51:39 - Stop! Whoever's turn it is next, gets three turns in a row!

52:31 - Stop! Take two keys!

53:07 - Red light! *Pause* Green light!

53:55 - Stop! You, hold onto that die! Everybody, make up numbers til I get back!

54:36 - Stop! Whoever holds the die loses two turns! Keep rollin', Mama! Woohoo! Yeah!

55:53 - Stop! Get all your keys! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

56:38 - *Appears with a skull face, saying nothing*

The following text appears on-screen:

If you are the first to notice this, receive a key.

56:58 - BLACK HOLE...EVERYBODY!

57:37 - Stop! Get out! Get going! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll! Roll!

58:24 - Stop! Why do you keep...You have to roll it exactly! Or else you have to go back and forth, OK? Come on! You gotta get the number exactly to land on the last space! Come on! Jeez!

59:20 - Stop! You...get all...your...keys...and...GO!

60:00 - Time's up! Or, you just...watched this whole thing through for fun. I can't really tell. Either way, you are one soul poorer, and I am one beard richer! And to think, it all took an hour! Cause I am just that good, and you are just that pathetic! You stupid, stupid nerds! Hmph! Well, I'm just gonna go take your souls now, and then I'm gonna go shave this thing off...For Nightmare, this is Gatekeeper, telling you to go spoil your dinner!

Win Sequence - WHAT!? Ah, man! You just won, didn't you? Ah, well...Well, fine! Be that way! I guess I have to come to terms with that one! Alright, alright...Congratulations for winning, you're the best, I suck, you rock, I smell. Alright...For Nightmare, this is Gatekeeper, telling you...to go have fun and drink a soda. *Long pause* Jerk!

Arjak: Created page with basic information

Nightmare/Atmosfear

2014-10-12T18:42:35Z

Arjak: added colon to the running time for consistency

[[File:Gatekeepback.png|right|The Gatekeeper]]

Called Nightmare in America, Australia and New Zealand and Atmosfear in the rest of the world, this is the first game in the series which introduces [[the Gatekeeper]] as well as [[the Other Side]] and the six [[Harbingers]].

Using a video tape both as host and timer, you where required to treat the video as if it was a real person as you played the simple board game and attempted to collect keys that would unlock the path to the center of the game board. Upon arriving there you picked up one of the Nightmare cards and read it aloud. If it was not the one you had filled out at the start of the game you stopped the tape and were declared the winner. As simple as it was, it instantly became a cult classic and for a brief time was a popular favorite around Halloween. In some regions the host was played by a different actor.

Approximate Running Time: 60 Minutes

== Host ==

Played by Wenanty Nosul in the English editions, this version of [[The Gatekeeper]] changes his appearance over the course of the game, changing from a normal looking person in a cloak to the monstrous visage seen in the later installments of the series.

Nightmare/Atmosfear Transcript

Arjak: fixed the script portion for the Chosen One event - thanks, Marrow!

Pre-Game - So, you want to play the game. My game, by my rules. I am… THE GATEKEEPER! I rule this game, and you, you will obey my rules. When I speak you will stop, and you will listen! Hmmm? I see... You have all been stained with a color, and marked by a number. If I call your number or your color you must answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper!” If you fail to answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper” when I call your number or color, you will be punished! I’d like to punish one of you now. You. The one who holds the lowest number. Yes, you! ANSWER ME, YOU MAGGOT! Time's up. If you failed to answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper” in time, you are banished. Move your mark to the closest black hole. You will not play until I choose to release you. But, if you answered in time, you have learned my first lesson. Do not forget! For you will all be called and you will all be tested! Let us begin my game with you. The one who holds the highest number, answer me! You will be the first to roll the dice and begin my game, and your nightmare.

2:02 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Who is just about to roll the dice? Answer me! Time’s up. If you failed to answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper” in time, you must roll a “6” before you can play again.

3:26 - I release you from the black hole.

4:33 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked with an “X” receive a free turn.

5:43 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked “Chance” take the dice and roll it. Roll it now, and if you can roll your number, you can take a key.

6:58 - Stop! *Yawn* I release those of you in the black hole. Let us all play the first game together. I want each of you to take a turn to roll the dice. What are you waiting for, huh? DO IT! Don't waste my time, for you have precious little of it! Time's up, and if you haven't yet had a turn, you can blame it on the others, not me. Now, who rolled the highest number? Answer me! Time's up. If you answered in time, you may take a key, but if you failed, you have lost the precious prize. As for the one who rolled the lowest number... Answer me! You will miss a turn.

9:26 - Stop! Whose turn is next? Answer me! Give me your real name. Huh? I must have missed your middle name. That is a stupid name, isn't it, you maggot! *Laughs* Well, answer me. I think it is. So do all the others. Now, pick up the dice, and roll it! Huh? What number did you roll? There are 26 letters in the alphabet, and you have rolled one of the first six. What letter would that be? Huh? If that letter is in your middle name, you will miss the number of turns you have rolled. If it is not, take a fate card.

11:20 - I release you from the black hole.

11:49 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked with an "X", do not play again until I return.

12:27 - Stop! I release you from the black hole in time for a game of my choosing! All of you will now take a turn to roll the dice, and the one who rolls the highest is the Chosen One. Remember, for when I call for the Chosen One, it will answer, or it will pay dearly!

13:57 - Stop! You! The one whose turn it is next, answer me! Pick up the dice. Now, roll it! What number did you roll? Huh? Not bad! Roll it again. What number did you roll this time? Now, roll it again. Three times lucky? Give me the number. Huh. Now, add all three numbers you rolled together. If the total is more than twelve, receive a key. If not, better luck next time. *Laughs*

15:54 - Stop! You! The one whose turn it is next, answer me! Tell me, who would you like to see banished? Which one of your opponents? Consider it done! That player is banished to the black hole!

17:06 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! You're going to wish it wasn't! Roll the dice! What number did you roll? That is the number of turns you are going to miss, you maggot!

18:11 - Stop! You! Yes, you! The one whose turn it is next, answer me! You're banished!

19:24 - I release those of you banished to the black hole, and I summon the Chosen One. Who is the Chosen One? Answer me! So... It is you... Take a key... Then leave your seat... And come... Sit before me... I have something very special to show you... It is just for you... It is not for the others... Come closer... Still closer, so I can show you... MY FURY! NEVER, EVER COME CLOSER TO ME AGAIN, YOU MAGGOT!

21:22 - Stop! Those stained with the colors purple, red, or blue, answer me! Roll the dice! If you roll your number, you can take a key.

22:31 - Stop! Those stained with the colors black, white, and gray, answer me! Roll the dice. If you can roll your number, you can take a key.

23:38 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! You must roll a "6" to play again.

24:13 - Those of you on gravestones marked with "Time" will miss a turn.

24:44 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked with an "X" will now receive two free turns.

25:21 - Stop! Whose turn is it now? Answer me! I'd bet you'd like a key. I also bet you cannot roll your number to receive one! Go on! Roll the dice. What number did you roll? Is that your number, little maggot? Huh. If it's your number, I'm going to give you a key. If it's not, YOU'RE BANISHED! *Laughs*

26:55 - Stop! Whose turn is next? Answer me! It's your turn, all right, and you're playing me! Roll the dice! What number did you roll? This is my number: it is "5". If you rolled my number, you cannot play again until I return.

28:18 - Stop! The writing's on the wall, little maggots! Each of you will now take a turn to roll the dice, and be rewarded or punished accordingly.

The following text appears on-screen to give the result of a player's roll:

6 - FREE TURN

5 - MISS A TURN

4 - BANISHED

3 - FATE CARD

2 - CHANCE CARD

1 - TIME CARD

29:17 - I release you from the black hole.

29:47 - Stop! I want to play with the Old One now. Find out who is the oldest. The frail one! The one you all pity! Who is the Old One? Answer me, or be banished! I want to ask you a question. You will not lie. If you lie, and one amongst you knows the truth, you will reveal all, and the Old One will die! Now, Old One, how old are you? That old! You smell much older! Everybody must pity you! They wont soon! They'll hate you like I do! Now, old maggot, take the dice, but do not roll until I command you. I want you to roll your exact age. Have as many turns as you wish, but if the total you roll is higher than your age, you will start again. Only when the old maggot has rolled its old age will my game continue! Roll the dice!

32:39 - Time's up! Answer me, old maggot! Did you manage to roll your old age? If you succeeded, you can take a key. Hopefully you failed miserably! If you failed, you are banished to the black hole, where you will grow older still!

33:55 - Stop! All of you will now take a turn to roll the dice! Do it now, and those of you who rolled their numbers can take a key.

34:55 - I release those banished to the black hole.

35:45 - Stop! Who holds the most number of my keys? Answer me! Ah, you are a worry! A concern to me! No matter. I banish you to the black hole! *Laughs* You ask why? Because I can. Because I am the Gatekeeper, and this is my game, and your nightmare! *Snorts and laughs*

37:23 - Do you think I'm fair? *Looks upset* I have been fair to you all! I have been good to you all...on occasion. I can also be very bad. Now I choose to be good. Each of you will now take a turn to roll the dice, and if you roll your number, you can take a key. As for the little maggot in the black hole, you grow weak, while the others grow stronger!

39:14 - I release those of you banished to the black hole, and I summon you, the one with the highest number. Answer me, you maggot! You have been chosen for the test of the chimes. Listen for the chimes, for when my clock begins to chime, you will take the dice, and roll it twelve times. If you roll your number three times, you will be rewarded.

40:45 - Those of you on gravestones marked "Fate", yours is to miss a turn, and those of you on gravestones marked "Time", it is time for you to receive a free one.

41:51 - Is anybody wasting away in the black hole? I offer you a chance, a toss of the coin. Tails, and you are free, but heads... And yours is still mine!

42:24 - *Chimes start*

42:53 - Did the maggot with the highest mark manage to roll its number three times? If you failed, then your failure has released all those in the black hole, but if you succeeded, receive a key.

43:44 - Stop! I want to play with the Young One now. Answer me! How old are you, little one? Oh. Isn't it past your bedtime, little one? The youngest one is the weakest! Is prey! Is meat! Like to meet me on the other side, little one? *Snorts* Pick up the dice. You must roll your exact age before I return. Have as many turns as you wish. Think you can win? I think not! I'll be back with your punishment real soon!

45:15 - Psst! Psst! Little one! Young one! Answer me! If you succeeded, you can have a key, but if you failed... Bye, bye, little one! Enjoy your fall down into the black hole! Bye, bye!

46:20 - I release you from the black hole.

46:56 - Those of you with odd numbers will now take a turn to roll the dice. If you can roll your number, you will receive a key.

47:41 - Those of you with even numbers will now take a turn to roll the dice. If you can roll your number, you will receive a key.

48:27 - Stop! You, the one whose turn it is next! Answer me! Look at me, you maggot! Yes, look at me! Do not turn away from me! You will stare down deep into my eyes, and keep looking at me until I fade away! Don't blink, maggot! If you blink just once, you've shown me your weakness! I'll take a key from you! Don't blink, little maggot! I'm watching you! I see you! Peek-a-boo! Don't blink, you little maggot! *Stares at the players until 50:21*

50:56 - Stop! Whose turn is it now? Answer me! You are scum, aren't you? Answer me! I like scum. Tastes great! Now, roll the dice, you scum-sucking maggot! Roll it four times, and if the total you roll is an even number, then it's time to get even with you. You're banished! But if it's odd, you will receive a key.

51:46 - Stop! You will all take a turn to roll the dice, and be rewarded or punished according to what is written.

The following text appears on-screen to give the result of a player's roll:

6 - MISS A TURN

5 - LOSE A KEY

4 - BANISHED

3 - FATE CARD

2 - CHANCE CARD

1 - TIME CARD

52:41 - I release you from the black hole, and we are about to play a new game. It's called Havoc!

53:02 - Number One, answer! I demand you roll a "1" before you play again.

53:18 - Number Two, answer! I demand you roll a "2" before you play again.

53:35 - Number Three, answer! I demand you roll a "3" before you play again.

53:51 - Number Four, answer! I demand you roll a "4" before you play again.

54:08 - Number Five, answer! I demand you roll a "5" before you play again.

54:24 - Number Six, answer! I demand you roll a "6" before you play again.

54:41 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! Receive a free turn.

54:59 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! Miss a turn.

55:15 - Where is the Old One? Dead yet? Pity. Answer me! Toss the coin. Heads, you're banished. Tails, and you receive a key.

55:43 - I want to play with the Young One again. I want to play for keeps. Fancy a game? Toss the coin. Heads, and you lose a key. Tails, and you receive one.

56:16 - Stop! Each of you will now take a turn to roll the dice. Hurry! The one who rolls the highest will receive a key.

56:57 - Stop! All of you will now take a turn to roll the dice. The one who rolls the highest will receive a key.

57:22 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! The cards are on the table, I'm raising the bets, and you are going to play some Poker! Take the top card from the "Nightmare" pack. If it's your fear, you lose all your keys. You were going to lose anyway! But if it's not, return it to the back of the pack, and you can collect all the remaining keys.

58:42 - Last minute chance, maggots! Roll the dice, and the one who rolls the highest receives all the remaining keys.

59:38 - The Ghost Train is coming, kiddies! Listen to it scream!

60:00 - It's over, little maggots! You have lost! This is the end of my game, but just the beginning of your nightmare!

Arjak: finished transcript!

Pre-Game - So, you want to play the game. My game, by my rules. I am… THE GATEKEEPER! I rule this game, and you, you will obey my rules. When I speak you will stop, and you will listen! Hmmm? I see... You have all been stained with a color, and marked by a number. If I call your number or your color you must answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper!” If you fail to answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper” when I call your number or color, you will be punished! I’d like to punish one of you now. You. The one who holds the lowest number. Yes, you! ANSWER ME, YOU MAGGOT! Time's up. If you failed to answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper” in time, you are banished. Move your mark to the closest black hole. You will not play until I choose to release you. But, if you answered in time, you have learned my first lesson. Do not forget! For you will all be called and you will all be tested! Let us begin my game with you. The one who holds the highest number, answer me! You will be the first to roll the dice and begin my game, and your nightmare.

2:02 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Who is just about to roll the dice? Answer me! Time’s up. If you failed to answer “Yes, my Gatekeeper” in time, you must roll a “6” before you can play again.

3:26 - I release you from the black hole.

4:33 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked with an “X” receive a free turn.

5:43 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked “Chance” take the dice and roll it. Roll it now, and if you can roll your number, you can take a key.

6:58 - Stop! *Yawn* I release those of you in the black hole. Let us all play the first game together. I want each of you to take a turn to roll the dice. What are you waiting for, huh? DO IT! Don't waste my time, for you have precious little of it! Time's up, and if you haven't yet had a turn, you can blame it on the others, not me. Now, who rolled the highest number? Answer me! Time's up. If you answered in time, you may take a key, but if you failed, you have lost the precious prize. As for the one who rolled the lowest number... Answer me! You will miss a turn.

9:26 - Stop! Whose turn is next? Answer me! Give me your real name. Huh? I must have missed your middle name. That is a stupid name, isn't it, you maggot! *Laughs* Well, answer me. I think it is. So do all the others. Now, pick up the dice, and roll it! Huh? What number did you roll? There are 26 letters in the alphabet, and you have rolled one of the first six. What letter would that be? Huh? If that letter is in your middle name, you will miss the number of turns you have rolled. If it is not, take a fate card.

11:20 - I release you from the black hole.

11:49 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked with an "X", do not play again until I return.

12:27 - Stop! I release you from the black hole in time for a game of my choosing! All of you will now take a turn to roll the dice, and the one who rolls the highest is the Chosen One. Remember, for when I call for the Chosen One, it will answer, or it will pay dearly!

13:57 - Stop! You! The one whose turn it is next, answer me! Pick up the dice. Now, roll it! What number did you roll? Huh? Not bad! Roll it again. What number did you roll this time? Now, roll it again. Three times lucky? Give me the number. Huh. Now, add all three numbers you rolled together. If the total is more than twelve, receive a key. If not, better luck next time. *Laughs*

15:54 - Stop! You! The one whose turn it is next, answer me! Tell me, who would you like to see banished? Which one of your opponents? Consider it done! That player is banished to the black hole!

17:06 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! You're going to wish it wasn't! Roll the dice! What number did you roll? That is the number of turns you are going to miss, you maggot!

18:11 - Stop! You! Yes, you! The one whose turn it is next, answer me! You're banished!

19:24 - I release those of you banished to the black hole, and I summon the Chosen One. Who is the Chosen One? Answer me! So... It is you... Take a key... Then leave your seat... And come... Sit before me... I have something very special to show you... It is just for you... It is not for the others... Come closer... Still closer, so I can show you... (Unintelligible shouting muffled by thunderclap) NEVER, EVER COME CLOSER TO ME AGAIN, YOU MAGGOT!

21:22 - Stop! Those stained with the colors purple, red, or blue, answer me! Roll the dice! If you roll your number, you can take a key.

22:31 - Stop! Those stained with the colors black, white, and gray, answer me! Roll the dice. If you can roll your number, you can take a key.

23:38 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! You must roll a "6" to play again.

24:13 - Those of you on gravestones marked with "Time" will miss a turn.

24:44 - Stop! Those of you on gravestones marked with an "X" will now receive two free turns.

25:21 - Stop! Whose turn is it now? Answer me! I'd bet you'd like a key. I also bet you cannot roll your number to receive one! Go on! Roll the dice. What number did you roll? Is that your number, little maggot? Huh. If it's your number, I'm going to give you a key. If it's not, YOU'RE BANISHED! *Laughs*

26:55 - Stop! Whose turn is next? Answer me! It's your turn, all right, and you're playing me! Roll the dice! What number did you roll? This is my number: it is "5". If you rolled my number, you cannot play again until I return.

28:18 - Stop! The writing's on the wall, little maggots! Each of you will now take a turn to roll the dice, and be rewarded or punished accordingly.

The following text appears on-screen to give the result of a player's roll:

6 - FREE TURN

5 - MISS A TURN

4 - BANISHED

3 - FATE CARD

2 - CHANCE CARD

1 - TIME CARD

29:17 - I release you from the black hole.

29:47 - Stop! I want to play with the Old One now. Find out who is the oldest. The frail one! The one you all pity! Who is the Old One? Answer me, or be banished! I want to ask you a question. You will not lie. If you lie, and one amongst you knows the truth, you will reveal all, and the Old One will die! Now, Old One, how old are you? That old! You smell much older! Everybody must pity you! They wont soon! They'll hate you like I do! Now, old maggot, take the dice, but do not roll until I command you. I want you to roll your exact age. Have as many turns as you wish, but if the total you roll is higher than your age, you will start again. Only when the old maggot has rolled its old age will my game continue! Roll the dice!

32:39 - Time's up! Answer me, old maggot! Did you manage to roll your old age? If you succeeded, you can take a key. Hopefully you failed miserably! If you failed, you are banished to the black hole, where you will grow older still!

33:55 - Stop! All of you will now take a turn to roll the dice! Do it now, and those of you who rolled their numbers can take a key.

34:55 - I release those banished to the black hole.

35:45 - Stop! Who holds the most number of my keys? Answer me! Ah, you are a worry! A concern to me! No matter. I banish you to the black hole! *Laughs* You ask why? Because I can. Because I am the Gatekeeper, and this is my game, and your nightmare! *Snorts and laughs*

37:23 - Do you think I'm fair? *Looks upset* I have been fair to you all! I have been good to you all...on occasion. I can also be very bad. Now I choose to be good. Each of you will now take a turn to roll the dice, and if you roll your number, you can take a key. As for the little maggot in the black hole, you grow weak, while the others grow stronger!

39:14 - I release those of you banished to the black hole, and I summon you, the one with the highest number. Answer me, you maggot! You have been chosen for the test of the chimes. Listen for the chimes, for when my clock begins to chime, you will take the dice, and roll it twelve times. If you roll your number three times, you will be rewarded.

40:45 - Those of you on gravestones marked "Fate", yours is to miss a turn, and those of you on gravestones marked "Time", it is time for you to receive a free one.

41:51 - Is anybody wasting away in the black hole? I offer you a chance, a toss of the coin. Tails, and you are free, but heads... And yours is still mine!

42:24 - *Chimes start*

42:53 - Did the maggot with the highest mark manage to roll its number three times? If you failed, then your failure has released all those in the black hole, but if you succeeded, receive a key.

43:44 - Stop! I want to play with the Young One now. Answer me! How old are you, little one? Oh. Isn't it past your bedtime, little one? The youngest one is the weakest! Is prey! Is meat! Like to meet me on the other side, little one? *Snorts* Pick up the dice. You must roll your exact age before I return. Have as many turns as you wish. Think you can win? I think not! I'll be back with your punishment real soon!

45:15 - Psst! Psst! Little one! Young one! Answer me! If you succeeded, you can have a key, but if you failed... Bye, bye, little one! Enjoy your fall down into the black hole! Bye, bye!

46:20 - I release you from the black hole.

46:56 - Those of you with odd numbers will now take a turn to roll the dice. If you can roll your number, you will receive a key.

47:41 - Those of you with even numbers will now take a turn to roll the dice. If you can roll your number, you will receive a key.

48:27 - Stop! You, the one whose turn it is next! Answer me! Look at me, you maggot! Yes, look at me! Do not turn away from me! You will stare down deep into my eyes, and keep looking at me until I fade away! Don't blink, maggot! If you blink just once, you've shown me your weakness! I'll take a key from you! Don't blink, little maggot! I'm watching you! I see you! Peek-a-boo! Don't blink, you little maggot! *Stares at the players until 50:21*

50:56 - Stop! Whose turn is it now? Answer me! You are scum, aren't you? Answer me! I like scum. Tastes great! Now, roll the dice, you scum-sucking maggot! Roll it four times, and if the total you roll is an even number, then it's time to get even with you. You're banished! But if it's odd, you will receive a key.

51:46 - Stop! You will all take a turn to roll the dice, and be rewarded or punished according to what is written.

The following text appears on-screen to give the result of a player's roll:

6 - MISS A TURN

5 - LOSE A KEY

4 - BANISHED

3 - FATE CARD

2 - CHANCE CARD

1 - TIME CARD

52:41 - I release you from the black hole, and we are about to play a new game. It's called Havoc!

53:02 - Number One, answer! I demand you roll a "1" before you play again.

53:18 - Number Two, answer! I demand you roll a "2" before you play again.

53:35 - Number Three, answer! I demand you roll a "3" before you play again.

53:51 - Number Four, answer! I demand you roll a "4" before you play again.

54:08 - Number Five, answer! I demand you roll a "5" before you play again.

54:24 - Number Six, answer! I demand you roll a "6" before you play again.

54:41 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! Receive a free turn.

54:59 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! Miss a turn.

55:15 - Where is the Old One? Dead yet? Pity. Answer me! Toss the coin. Heads, you're banished. Tails, and you receive a key.

55:43 - I want to play with the Young One again. I want to play for keeps. Fancy a game? Toss the coin. Heads, and you lose a key. Tails, and you receive one.

56:16 - Stop! Each of you will now take a turn to roll the dice. Hurry! The one who rolls the highest will receive a key.

56:57 - Stop! All of you will now take a turn to roll the dice. The one who rolls the highest will receive a key.

57:22 - Stop! Whose turn is it next? Answer me! The cards are on the table, I'm raising the bets, and you are going to play some Poker! Take the top card from the "Nightmare" pack. If it's your fear, you lose all your keys. You were going to lose anyway! But if it's not, return it to the back of the pack, and you can collect all the remaining keys.

58:42 - Last minute chance, maggots! Roll the dice, and the one who rolls the highest receives all the remaining keys.

59:38 - The Ghost Train is coming, kiddies! Listen to it scream!

60:00 - It's over, little maggots! You have lost! This is the end of my game, but just the beginning of your nightmare!

[[File:Gatekeepback.png|right|The Gatekeeper]]

Called Nightmare in America, Australia and New Zealand and Atmosfear in the rest of the world, this is the first game in the series which introduces [[the Gatekeeper]] as well as [[the Other Side]] and the six [[Harbingers]].

Using a video tape both as host and timer, you where required to treat the video as if it was a real person as you played the simple board game and attempted to collect keys that would unlock the path to the center of the game board. Upon arriving there you picked up one of the Nightmare cards and read it aloud. If it was not the one you had filled out at the start of the game you stopped the tape and were declared the winner. As simple as it was, it instantly became a cult classic and for a brief time was a popular favorite around Halloween. In some regions the host was played by a different actor.

Approximate Running Time 60 Minutes

== Host ==

Played by Wenanty Nosul in the English editions, this version of [[The Gatekeeper]] changes his appearance over the course of the game changing from a normal looking person in a cloak to a the monstrous visage seen in the later installments of the series.
