RE: The Solarium - An Alternate Reality Game in Space

This is probably something that you have looked at already, but here is a link to a dictionary search for all words that start with polyph and have 4 letters after. The most related one I can see is polyphonic. Maybe that has something to do with the audio?

That's #2 on the suspect list actually.

Our top three candidates are, in order,

1. Polyphemus - The solarium involves a great deal of mythology https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphemus
2. Polyphony - For relatively obvious reasons. Unfortunately, none of us have developed enough skill with audio manipulation yet to thoroughly test this.
3. Polyphenol - There's a chemistry system in the game and it's been critical in solving a couple other mysteries.

I really like the way you think; you're pretty resourceful. That website you linked seems ESPECIALLY useful. I would've loved to have had that during some earlier puzzles.
