Protocol Squared: Eons
Eons is a GMless story roleplaying game about strange horror. The characters are people on the fringes of society who see things other people do not, which believe things that aren’t real, and who follow clues into the oblivion of impossible shadows. Inside the game are four different playsets or pathways to storytelling, with 19 different roles (character classes), and a myriad of charts, this edition includes numerous styles of horror.
- There’s the generic version of Eons which deals with the unknown.
- There’s the ghastly crimes version that preys upon our fears of serial killers and the criminally insane.
- There’s an occult pathway that is self-explanatory.
- Finally, there’s a transcendental horror pathway inspired by our favorite tentacled gods.
Each of these pathways has specific scene and world-building charts that make this edition of Eons infinitely replayable.
Pledges start at $11 for a PDF.
Black Rose Wars: Rebirth
Black Rose Wars: Rebirth is a competitive fantasy game of deck-building, strategy, and combat set in the hectic universe of Nova Aetas in Italy, for 1-4 players. Each player is one of the powerful mages of the Black Rose Order, who aspires to become the new Great Magister, in order to acquire the mighty power of the Black Rose Artifact and the Forgotten Magic.
Each mage has at their disposal six schools of magic, each one with its own strategy to annihilate their opponents and increase their power. Mages fight each other in a modular arena of hexagonal Room tiles. They summon powerful creatures, cast destructive spells, or devise dark deceptions with their enchantments.
Are you ready to fight and become the new Great Magister?
Pledges start at $153 for the core game and stretch goals.
Picaresque Roman
By and large, we’re presenting a faithful reproduction of the Japanese fifth edition release of Picaresque Roman (the fifth edition is the latest version of the game in Japan). However, we have made a few quality of life and presentation changes to the book for its Western release. In doing this, we worked with the original design team and illustrators to ensure we were enhancing their vision rather than changing it.
Below is a list of what we’ve added to the book for its English release:
- New art commissioned just for the English release! Brand new setting, character, and replay art, all illustrated by the incomparable Takumi-san!
- Fresh layouts with all-new graphic design and aesthetic elements to better emphasize the game’s theme!
- Hardcover format instead of the original softcover binding!
- Added bits of information to further flesh out Picaresque’s unique world!
- Longer book-length, clocking in at around 1/3 longer than the Japanese release!
