Terminal Directive is a 36-page murder mystery set in a sandbox sector of Prospero’s Dream. A race against the clock to solve a murder before it happens, with each day offering a chance to discover the truth before everything resets. A cascading, faulty time-loop where if too long is taken, horrifying glitches begin occurring and reality breaks down.

Professor Harton is dead... at least... she was. 

An expert in spacetime manipulation, the professor has rigged a haphazardly designed localized gravity-emitter that will reverse time 24 hours upon her demise. The local sector now lies in the past, and the professor’s A.I Terminal, (P.A.I.G.E), is desperately trying to track down its missing creator, hiring anyone within reach that seems like they might be up to the task. 

Having never been used before the time-loop is far from stable. And the more resets that occur, the more that time and matter begin to break down. To make things worse, the Professor was far from a simple woman, with drugs, gambling, and shady figures all standing menacingly in her fallen shadow.

The party arrive as things are looking bleak. They aren’t the first group to try and solve the murder and stop the loop, but if they don’t do something soon, they WILL be the last.
