Smallest Salutations and Welcome to Deathmatch Island! Avery (Skyler), Ira (Holly), and Poppy (Neo) awaken, dazed and confused, on a boat heading straight for the island. Tensions flare as sordid…
Yay, Torment Nexus!
We watched all three seasons of Don't Create the Torment Nexus, and we got a really cool RPG out of it.
Yeah.
You awaken to the smell of diesel fuel, salt water, and tar.
You're on a small fishing boat.
One of you is currently operating the two-stroke outboard motor as the boat chops through the rolling gray sea towards a distant, approaching island.
You don't remember how long you've been on the boat, or how you got there.
You don't remember much at all, now that you think about it.
You're not sure what happened to your clothes.
You're all wearing matching uniforms and wristwatches.
Each of you have on you a letter, neatly folded in a pocket, slightly damp from the sea spray.
You should probably read that now.
Congratulations! You've been selected to participate in Deathmatch Island! Winning will mean fame, freedom, and unlimited wealth.
You may be experiencing some confusion and memory loss.
This is normal following the selection and recruitment process.
It is important that you do not panic.
Look around you.
These fellow competitors are your team.
You might like to try some icebreakers.
Trust and good teamwork are crucial to victory.
In two minutes, Phase 1 will begin.
In this phase, you will explore the island, complete challenges, acquire resources, and meet other contestants.
Alliances will be formed, and threats will be eliminated.
At the end of Phase 1, a klaxon will sound three times.
