Normally, being an adventurer in an RPG is a good thing. Not so much in Zin Never Dies, a new fantasy RPG that’s up on Kickstarter now. There, adventurers are ones that draw the attention of the gods. And that’s not always a good thing. How will you navigate this strange and mystical world? You’ll only find out if you head over and check out the Kickstarter campaign for the game, up and running now.
From the campaign:
Zin Never Dies is a roleplaying game both charming & spooky. Enter a world of Masks & Spirits, where the Gods are real, but you’ll wish they weren’t… A world where slugs wear suits of armor; where colossal Gods visit 4 times a year; where strange, little masked people emerge from empty caves, with no face and no memories…
…
The Gods are real. That much is certain. What they want, no one knows. Whatever it is, it’s best to keep away. To get the attention of a God is no laughing matter. Sure, they can grant you powers, gifts, bend the world to your wishes, but at what cost? The Gods, you see, enjoy drama. The word adventurer may as well be a slur. Call yourself that, and common folks will avoid you like the plague.
The game is powered by the Fitting Action system, an original, dynamic, easy to learn system that puts a twist on old D20 game systems. Zin Never Dies is a narrative game. Everything else (combat, dice-rolling, stats) is designed to serve the narrative.
The campaign’s more than 2x funded with 23 days left to go.
