Prometheus in Ice

The Arctic exploration ship Prometheus is trapped in pack ice, after a run-in with the recently deceased and engimatic Dr. Victor Frankenstein!

Long Description

The Prometheus is trapped in pack ice! The sailing ship’s voyage, under the helm of Captain Robert Walton, to explore the mysterious, ever sunny Arctic had chanced upon the brilliant and enigmatic Dr. Victor Frankenstein. While the Prometheus stood still waylaid in ice for months, the Doctor regaled the crew with a very strange tale. Alas, the Doctor, like a comet burning through the skies, has passed beyond.

The mood among the crew runs dour! After a brief retreat of the ice, it rushed back, surrounding and trapping all souls of the ship like the Romans at Cannae. One crewmember was found dead on deck, bitten by what seems to be some sort of wild animal. Strange green lights flitter across the horizon during the dark. The crew seems to flitter between melancholia and hints of mutiny day over day. And the nights keep getting longer...

Prometheus in Ice is a 3 hour gothic horror game set in the titular ship stuck in ice in the Arctic in the late 18th century, inspired by Frankenstein, The Terror, and Poe. The game is episodic with a series of time skips, as the nights get longer and longer and provisions dwindle.

Costuming is encouraged. This will be one of the first runs of the game.
