HGOFT 19

 * Yet another past-victor-made-Co-gamemaker stepped forth with an idea, to design an arena inspired by The Wizard of Oz.  While not too keen on the theme, HGM Austin decided to make it interesting by keeping the tributes constantly moving on a golden path, never stopping until the 23rd cannon fired.  This game was the one in which former victor Svetlana was found to be tinkering with the results.  She was later executed.

Arena
Although the games started outside, this would quickly change after the bloodbath. The tributes started in the parking lot, surrounded around a golden cornucopia that doubled as an RV. Inside, the tributes were locked inside a giant shopping mall complete with stores that covered a vast scope of retailers. As an added twist, once there were ten tributes left, specialized contact lenses were placed on the tributes' eyes. These lenses blurred out the opposing tributes, making them silhouettes to other tributes, not to be revealed until the final battle. Zombie like muttations came in swarms as warned through the P.A. system. These were made from the reanimated corpses of the fallen tributes from the first four games.

Muttations

 * Stalkercrows: Lurked in the cornfields.
 * Men of Tin: Paraded through the forest.
 * Uncowardly Lion: Prowled the Emerald City.
 * Aerochimps: Flew in the skies of the Emberald City.
