When a struggling musician purchases a second-hand synth keyboard, they discover an unusual feature. In addition to all the normal voices and mods, a dedicated switch gives the ability to alternate between two different sound settings; a bright and cheerful one, and a haunting, eerie one. Intrigued by the instrument’s unique capability, they decide to incorporate the dual-tone into their music, hoping it will help them stand out in the competitive industry.
However, things start to get strange when they begin to hear strange noises and experience unexplainable glitches during rehearsals. As they delve deeper into the mysterious keyboard’s history, they realise the instrument might have a sinister past. Research leads to the discovery that the previous owner, a music composer named Adam, had died under mysterious circumstances.
They begin to suspect there might be a literal ghost in the machine, as they continue to experience paranormal activity and strange occurrences. With the help of tech-savvy friends, they attempt to unravel the mystery of the two-tone ghost…
As they get closer to the truth, they find themselves in danger, and must use their musical skills to confront a malevolent spirit…
This game is presented as a chance for people new to Storium to get to grips with things and ask questions, as they find their way to additional games.
I would want any player to tell me if I need to adjust to increase their access or inclusion.
This story is constructed for just one scene. We can have all the usual enthusiasm of building our characters and starting the game, and tell our tale in one scene.
Of course, if things go well we can add in a second or even a third scene.
Overall, the story explores the themes of creativity, ambition, and the supernatural.
