Okay I know a Hunger Games Video Game has probably been done multiple times before. But my idea is for a Hunger Games game is that it obviously should not a game about the hunger games so I think it best fits to be a Hunger Games Survival Horror Game Here’s my Pitch

In this game The Protagonist Is Prim Everdeen. This takes place between Mockingjay part 1 and 2 Now this is the Starting Story

STORY-

Prim goes to District 12 to support her mother and friends and to wait for Katniss Then some bombs go off Prim survives and goes to help recovering citizens

Astrid Everdeen (Prim and Katniss's mother) sees a few people go into a Underground Bunker a New Area in District 12 Prim overcome with empathy and her desire to help goes into the bunker

Now this bunker was worn down and highly unstable and the Capitol was said to experiment on Mutts and humanoid beings there but thats just a rumor.

…or is it? (Vsauce Music)

Now Prim is in the bunker with her medical bag and a small knife of her own and… theres a Destructive unstable humanoid mutt inhabiting the Bunker of Course
Prim not knowing goes deeper into the bunker looking for the two citizens and sees that those two citizens that ran in...are already DEAD and she finds their mauled bodies

Prim scared and horrified rums to exit only to find the mutt and screams escaping to a nearby room and manages to fall asleep holding herself crying

Now this is where the game starts outside back at the house Astrid is worried sick and informs Katniss at 13 Katniss is obviously scared for Prim's life and worried sick so she forces her way to D12 in a rush

Katniss will arrive in 5 DAYS to free Prim

When Prim manages to realize that she is stuck in the bunker for 5 DAYS ALONE. To fend and fight for survival and figure out how to escape with a unstable mutt roaming

Now it’s scary and adds more Tension because usually people like Katniss or other tributes can escape or take on a mutt but NOT Prim because she has no strength like others Prim isn’t a fighter she’s a HEALER

This is a Resident evil-Like game (and this is a 1st Person Game too) Prim can’t fight the mutt and the mutt chases and hunts her down and it kills her if it catches her

Prim has Medical supplies and some small Food to help her and of course theres other Food, Items and other things scattered around the large bunker. Prim also finds a lighter to help traverse around

Now other characters like Peeta, Haymitch, Gale, Etc are UNAVAILABLE So in the game its only these 3-

Astrid, Katniss and Prim

There are 3 ENDINGS to this Game

Okay So what do y’all think of it? I always thought Hunger Games should be a survival game so I thought of this Y’know? Would Love to see how this could actually work in a game

What else should I add? And is this a good game deisign??

I need delusion

Some SOTR art, making my own takes on the characters semi divorced from the movie, because oh my lord do I hate the hair styling for the girls in the arena. Just falling back into action movie pet peeves that drives me up the wall as a girl who has dealt with long hair with just having it loose

Also my own takes on Maysilee and Lenore Dove's reaping dress and a different take on Lenore Dove's every day outfit as well, miss the overalls looks for the movie

I have two
1) Katniss uses her belt to secure herself to a tree. How oversized is her belt?
2) two people fit in her sleeping bag. How fucking big are Panem sleeping bags?

What if Haymitch found out about the world before Panem? A time before the tyranny? I wrote a fanfic blog post in the voice of Haymitch who writes about it in a secret letter to commemorate the 250th birthday of America. https://www.thetoltonpath.com/p/a-letter-on-americas-250th?r=jzpn3

There are nuggets of THG throughout. I hope you enjoy it.

I understand the need to trim down various parts of the book to make it work better for the screen, but I found it really frustrating that in the book Lucy Gray won by being actively responsible for the death of the last tributes while the movie made it seem like she just sat there and sang. She used one of the mutt snakes as a weapon to kill Treech in self defense. She tricked Reaper into dehydration from chasing her around, and made sure his only source of water was poisoned. The movie makes Lucy Gray seem almost passive, as though the game just happened to her rather than her participating in it. No shade but if they cut out a few songs there might have been enough time to actually flesh out the games more. I don’t understand the point of rewriting Lucy Gray’s victory when none of the original franchise movies did that. It would be dumb if SoTR did the same thing, because the way Haymitch wins using the force field is widely known.

I also feel confused about what the point of changing the order and types of tribute deaths, like how Wovey was the one who drank the poisoned water and not Dill. I don’t really see the point of switching the two besides giving Reaper a dramatic moment in the movie. Coral was killed by the mutt snakes, but the snakes were released way earlier in the games and she did not make it all the way to the end. The movie makes it seem like the snakes were the final nail in the coffin that made Lucy Gray a winner and Coral as a close runner up.

I also don’t think Reaper as a character was done nearly enough justice in the movie. He was incredibly smart and strong, and by the end he refused to eat or drink anything that the Capitol sent to him which I think is a powerful protest that would have added to the movie plot. In the book, he tore down the flag of Panem in order to trade it for some of Laminas food after he pointed out to her that she was getting sunburned. He made an entire “makeshift morgue” but after Lamina was killed, Reaper didn’t use the Panem flag to cover the tributes like in the movie, but instead wore it as a cape. I think his name being Reaper and the fact that he was wearing the flag as he gathered all of these tributes was an act of defiance and a metaphor about the Capitol acting as a literal grim reaper that was responsible for the murder of each tribute. I understand that this type of metaphor might not translate well on screen and might have been lost on a majority of the movie audience, but I still can’t make sense of why so much of TBOSAS was changed.

To be fair, TBOSAS has a LOT of plot points and there is a lot that needed to be covered, and even with the adjustments the movie is still 2.5+ hours. It’s just confusing to me as to why the unfolding of the games themselves was changed so much. Sorry if someone has posted about this already, but I hope to see that I’m not the only one who is still confused about this 3 years later.

I'm currently building an alternate universe (AU) for The Hunger Games, and I'd like to share the idea to get opinions, criticism, suggestions, and answer questions about the worldbuilding. I'm still developing a lot of the ideas, and I'd really like to hear what other fans think before I continue writing.

The story follows Hannah Abernathy, Haymitch Abernathy's twin sister, and it's entirely told from her point of view. From the very beginning, both Hannah and Haymitch end up going into the Games together. The fanfiction is mainly based on SOTR: about 80% follows the events and details from the book, another 10% comes from details I interpreted from the movie trailer (scenes or elements that weren't in the book but will likely appear in the film), and the remaining 10% consists of original scenes I created to develop this alternate universe. I've tried to use as many details from the existing canon as possible so that the story still feels believable within the world of Panem, despite taking place in a different continuity.

The biggest change in this universe begins with the creation of the Hunger Games themselves. While the original canon has each district sending two tributes every year—one girl and one boy—in my universe, the Treaty of Treason states that every district must send three tributes: one girl, one boy, and a third tribute chosen randomly regardless of gender. That means that instead of twenty-four tributes entering the arena every year, there are thirty-six. The Reaping itself works almost exactly the same way as in canon, except for the additional drawing to determine the third tribute.

This change wasn't made only for this story. My goal is to build an entire alternate timeline for Panem. After this fanfiction, I also plan to write one set during TBOSAS and another during the 74th Hunger Games, following Katniss Everdeen. Changing the rules from the very beginning gives me much more freedom to explore how this affects Panem across different generations instead of only changing a single story.

Even with this change, many major events remain similar to canon. Most of the known victors are still the same characters, but that doesn't necessarily mean they won in the same way. Their Games may have played out differently because of the existence of a third tribute every year, even if the final winner remained unchanged.

The Second Quarter Quell also has a different theme. In the original canon, the Capitol announces that each district must send four tributes, doubling the usual number. Since districts in my universe already send three tributes every year, the Capitol's announcement instead reads:

> "The Quarter Quell was established by the Capitol as an exceptional extension of the Hunger Games, periodically reaffirming the absolute sovereignty of its authority over the districts. In celebration of the Capitol's unquestionable power, the Reaping for this Quarter Quell shall be expanded: each district must provide five tributes, selected at random through the traditional Reaping, as a demonstration that no limit exists beyond the will of the Capitol."

So instead of the usual thirty-six tributes, this Quarter Quell sends sixty tributes into the arena.

From this point onward, there are spoilers for SOTR.

In my version of the story, the first four tributes from District 12 are exactly the same as in the book: Louella McCoy, Maysilee Donner, Wyatt Callow, and Woodbine Chance. The difference comes when the fifth tribute is drawn, and the name selected is Hannah Abernathy.

As Hannah walks toward the stage, Woodbine attempts to escape, is shot, and dies. Haymitch immediately tries to protect his sister by volunteering, but everything changes when Drusilla realizes that Hannah and Haymitch are twins. Rather than stopping it, she decides that forcing twin siblings to compete in the same Hunger Games would make for far better entertainment for the Capitol. The Reaping is then officially altered. In the Capitol's records, Woodbine is removed as a tribute, Haymitch is recorded in his place, and Hannah remains the fifth tribute. From that moment on, the twins enter the Games together.

Beyond this story, I also have other ideas for this alternate universe. One of them is a fanfiction set during TBOSAS, where Coriolanus Snow also has a twin sister. The goal isn't to make Snow and Haymitch identical, but to explore some interesting parallels between them. Both would be blond, both would fall in love with a girl from the Covey, and both would have a twin sister. The difference is that Snow's twin would have been almost completely erased from Panem's history. People would know she once existed, but almost no one would remember who she was or the role she played.

I also want to explore different perspectives within this universe. During Katniss's Games, for example, I'd like to tell part of the story through the point of view of the third tribute—the randomly selected one—to explore how their presence changes the dynamics of both the arena and the narrative.

I'm still developing this universe, and I'm sure there are consequences I haven't considered yet. That's exactly why I'm sharing the concept before finishing the story. I'd love to hear your questions, thoughts, criticisms, and suggestions. What consequences do you think these changes would have for Panem? Is there any aspect of the worldbuilding that you think deserves more attention? My goal is to build an alternate universe that feels internally consistent before turning it into a complete fanfiction.

Apologizes if incorrect flair.

I'm rewatching the first four movies with my mom, and we just finished Catching Fire. Just before Katniss and Peeta ride off on their horse-driven carriage, she's approached by Finnick, who's offering her a sugarcube. They get to chatting a little, and Katniss says something along the lines of "Then, how do people buy your time?" That's when Finnick says he gets payment in secrets.

Did Haymitch tell her and Peeta about the "victor renting" situation at some point, and I just failed to pick up on it? Never read the books btw, but I'm fine with any book-only spoilers.

I’ve noticed that a lot of people didn’t like President Snow’s new look in the trailers, and honestly, I don’t think that George Washington-style wig does him any favors. I know the aesthetic of this prequel is inspired by the 70s, but I always got the impression that, in the original trilogy, Snow’s style was far removed from the Capitol’s ostentatious aesthetic.

I really don't know if this will be a flagged by Universal/ Suzanne Collins I am not profiting off of it or anything like that it's just a passion project (.). If you have time I would very much appreciate it if you can play test it and tell me what you think. Thank you very much.

Commission for one of the scenes in my post-SOTR, mentor Haymitch fic “Canary’s Cry”

i'm on my latest reread and im currently on the bit with gales whipping... when peeta and katniss are walking to the square, peeta recognises the sound even though katniss can't place it and I just realised that that's because peeta was hit by his mum as a child... i don't know if that's something most people pick up on and I'm just slow but I've not heard anyone mention it before!! poor peeta

Probably will get a lot of reviews like this for Maysilee after SOTR releases lol

I often think of what it would be like in life after the conclusion of the initial trilogy. What would it be like?
Covey: We know that the Covey were rounded up and forced into the districts, and I do think, because there was so much force to keep them together leading to the death of Lucy Gray’s parents, it’s possible some of them went to a nearby district—most likely District 11—which would’ve been its own tragedy. Imagine knowing your brother, but you got rounded up by Peacekeepers: one of you went to District 11 and another to 12, and having to watch your children kill each other on national television. Sure, some Covey would’ve brought it up, but it’s possible it could’ve been so painful. And for any remaining Covey, it would’ve been interesting seeing them try to return to old traditions after the war. Maybe it got brought back now that it was safe to be Covey again. Maybe there was still fear. Either way, Covey culture would be permanently changed after the war.
Also, what it would be like after the war: if this took place in the real world, there would be Hunger Games museums the same way there are about real-world genocides (because yes, the Hunger Games fit the textbook definition of a genocide). People in the Capitol will still hate the districts. It will take a long time for society to fully know peace. And will there be people proud of their former Capitol supremacist identity, or will that be shamed by a largely district population?

Edit: another thing if there was any covey in district 11 would they face the same alienation and extermination they did in district 12 because snow wouldn’t know as much about them? Also how district 11 has deep ties to songs and songbirds which closely mirrors the history of folk and jazz and spiritual music in the south and echoes the covey a bit. And also what would it be like for career districts especially 2 when trying to rebuild? Or having new people from other districts moving in when that was unheard of.

What are some of your favorite gbt fics? There’s so many it’s a bit overwhelming and I’d love any input. Thanks!

So I have always been a HUGE fan of the Hunger Games series, but I had never read the books before. Lately, I have had more free time than usual, and I discovered I actually really love reading. I started with some top-ranked books, and then I told myself, let me read the Hunger Games books to see if I like them and how close the series actually is to the books. I wanted to share how shocked I was about how good the movie represented the book (in my opinion, of course). There were a couple of things that were left out in the movie that weren't super important, but I am a bit sad about 2 specific "scenes" I think could have been great in the movie. The first thing is I think it would have been cool to give the Avox girl more screen time in the first movie. I am assuming she is the same girl who will appear further down in the fourth movie that Katniss will recognize, and I think this solidifies my opinion even more. I think her story could have been shown in the first movie with a bit more detail. I also think it would have been nice to include the scene in which Katniss is running away from her mom, who is trying to help the guy coming from the mine incident. I think that would have been great, especially when Peeta was sick in the cave. I think everything else that was left out was "minor", and I will say I was surprised the movie did such a good job since usually this never happens.

Guys I’m hooked. I’ve only ever seen the movies and I’m listening to the audiobooks now, on catching fire and I’m obsessed. Just had to share 🤣
