Argonautica

By Anna Klein
Players: 8
Genre: Reality TV
Desperate
times, desperate measures. Down on ratings, down on funding, slowly slipping
off the airwaves and into oblivion, and ailing television network launched its
final gambit: a pressure-cooker reality TV show where the contenders for the
grand prize have to spend three months living on a submarine, deep under the
ocean.
It’s
been three long months of claustrophobic life in the submarine for contenders
and crew alike. For the contenders, it’s been a non-stop barrage of
interpersonal conflicts, hoops to jump and psychological mind games for the
world’s entertainment. For the crew, it’s been life under the network’s sword
of Damocles. In the tiny confines of the underwater vessel, everyone knew that
the pay off is the prize, all else must simply be endured. It has been three long
months of gritted teeth and thinking of the money at the end, if only it’s all
a success.
And
now, at last, it’s all over. With the last of the crew and only three
contenders left on board, the winner has just been announced and filming has
wrapped. The cameras are off, the submarine has begun its ascent and in just
three hours, you’re free. There’s only three more hours to endure.
Argonautica
is intended as an intense, experimental larp dealing with mature themes and
some horror elements.
