Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Hope’s Peak Academy is an exclusive, government-sanctioned school that only accepts students with exceptional abilities. The campus stands tall in the center of largest metropolitan community in Japan, as a symbol of hope and success for the future! Only the best of the best may enter, with average high school students envying those who manage to make it in. It’s only fitting that students of Hope’s Peak Academy are dubbed 'Ultimate', and are given specific 'Super High School Level' titles befitting their field of expertise. Students who graduate from the Main Course are certainly guaranteed success and prosperity in life, with alumni often influencing the world with their talents. No matter what decade, the world remains on track to a future, always brighter than the last – and it’s all thanks to Hope’s Peak Academy.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })So? Aren’t you happy you get to attend this school? The pounding in your chest grows heavy as you stand before it’s pearly gates; this is it – the start of your high school life as an Ultimate. Excitement, fear, adrenaline – emotions flood your senses as you take your first step. Your visions blurs – from what? You don’t mind. The world contorts and darkens, numbness enters for a brief moment –and it all slips away.You and nineteen other students regain consciousness in what looks to be a warehouse. All of you are just as confused as the other, no matter how much you ask or scream. No matter how much you struggle. The only guide you have is a large board above you –20 Names, 20 Numbers, 20 Orders.We Welcome You To The King’s Game.The King’s Game is a closed Tumblr and Discord-based Danganronpa roleplay group, drawing inspiration from the cellphone novel/manga series/live-action movie King's Game, which in turn are based on the Japanese drinking game of the same name. Aspects of the Zero Escape Series can also be found as well. When twenty students wake up in what appears to be an abandoned warehouse, their struggle to survive in a game of life and death is just beginning in The Mutual Killing King’s Game!Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Players are numbered and given orders to fulfil. Orders range from tame, to inappropriate, to dangerous! Some will make or break friendships. Some orders could even leave permanent physical and psychological scars. With the air of distrust and hatred thickened by Orders, only the student with the title of King can break their classmates- and themselves- out of this violent system.All they need to do to kill someone, or have someone killed for them.Oh, but don’t worry, there will be no miscarriage of justice in this warehouse; everyone will go on trial to determine who is the killer hiding among them. The principle of equivalent exchange; something of equal value must be exchanged for a life killed.What will you do when you catch them? If you can catch them? Will you execute them, or exile them into the outside world?A murderer or a saviour? It is up for you and your friends to decide.A story of self-sacrifice, martyrs, and forgiveness, join our students as they confront a world where a black and white morality isn’t clear – where there is neither hope, nor despair – all while trying to uncover the secrets behind their Prison, Hope’s Peak Academy, Monochromatic Bears, and The King’s Game!We look forward to your return, your Highness!The King's Game started in September 2017 and ran until March 2018, where it took a permanent hiatus at the end of Chapter 3.

comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: The executions, which are tailor-made for each culprit. Usually, they either mock their Super High School Level talent or exploit their deepest fears, ensuring their punishment is as terrifying as possible. Occasionally, a murder victim also dies in a particularly horrible manner.

Fire-Forged Friends: Often relationships, both platonic and possibly romantic, are formed due to the stress everyone is put under and the bonds created thusly.

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Considering its premise and the fact that it's a roleplay, the characters are not above poking fun at the supposed absurdity of their circumstances.

Tonight, Someone Dies: Specifically, every couple of weeks, someone will be murdered, whether at the behest of a Death Order or by the 'King' of that chapter. It may even happen outside of the norm, should anyone make the mistake of breaking a rule.

Clear My Name: Happens whenever somebody is accused of the crime and fights the charges, or when their friends do their best to help them. Of course, the question of whether or not they're actually guilty is very real.
