The Syndicate

Yay! I think this will be a fun one when I get more time to flesh it out. Llama might have offered to cough cough co-host cough cough, months ago when I first started thinking about this game. We will see how the year goes, if he still up for it when the time comes.

Linki - We have a voice thread. Want to reenact it Daisy?

Welcome to the island! The unwitting guests travel to the island by strange invitation, but will any of them leave alive? Come along for the adventure of Agatha Christie's 'And Then There Were None.' Will the guests solve the mystery and escape before any more of them are killed? Will the mysterious killers succeed in exacting their devious plan? Who are the true baddies and who are the civvies?

This will probably be a game with a set length of time. The story will unfold as each day progresses with more information being revealed to the players. I am playing with the idea of not designating roles as civvie or baddie publicly, but will decide later how this will work. I plan to spend more time fleshing this out in the next month and rereading the novel, but wanted to go ahead and post my concept.
