Odyssey Prime is a roleplaying game of interdimensional adventures. The premise can perhaps be best summed up as 'Stargate meets Armageddon¸" combining the classic sci-fi staple of alien-world explorations with a touch of modern thriller. Player characters are recruited¸ sometimes involuntarily¸ by Project Odyssey to enter the portal and scout the unknown on the other side. A separate set of character patrols the home front as Damage Control agents¸ keeping a lid on revelations and the pending apocalypse. Best of all¸ Odyssey Prime can function as a meta-game bringing in your favorite campaign setting as one of the worlds to explore.
