The sharp hiss of a transistor radio fumbling in the space between frequencies gradually peels back the many layers of sleep. The signal wanders, fading and lulling as it discovers a note or two from an old melody, the monotone delivery of a foreign news headline, a friendly chime, but only ever for a moment before being tugged back into the static.

As though released from a trance, fresh sensation finally commands your attention. The acrid scent of dust and soot. The dull ochre hue of yellow brick walls. The creaking of the wooden floor beneath your body.
The air is old, and stale, and still. The lights are all off, but your eyes are well-used to the dark. It would be cold, were it not for the warm bodies that surround you and begin to stir.
Welcome to Project Orphium. For those of you that have played Taka and Nuto’s Angels of Death, or Fortuna and Vulpix’s Animoria, Project Orphium aims to be a familiar yet fresh take on the system. So familiar in fact that I’m just copying Fortuna’s write-up for the sign-ups because it was well-written, effective, and why fix what ain’t broken?
For those of you brand new to this style of game, however, don’t worry—everything will be explained. If you have any questions whatsoever regarding the gameplay, please do not be afraid to ask.
Essentially, the crux of the game involves “Mystery Rooms.” These are pre-set scenarios where a crime has occurred. The players act as detectives, solving the unique mysteries presented by each room with the hopes that they will live long enough to see the next.
