I’ve been working on this for a while, but I think The Butler at the Threshold is ready for feedback!
It’s a card-based storytelling game about the inhabitants of a strange, provincial 1930s town trying to find success and happiness while cosmic horror uncoils around them. It’s meant to be played over the course of a few hours (from character creation to final doom), with 2-5 players.
It’s based on our previous Hijink system games (What Ho World and Wizards Aren’t Gentlemen) but pretty comprehensively refined and simplified, with a bit of Archipelego III thrown in. We’re hoping to kickstart it sometime this year (pretty soon if we get a lot of feedback), to try and raise money to have it printed in a small board game format with multiple card decks.
Here’s the files:
If you played the game and have feedback, questions or reactions, please get in touch!
Really interesting game! I like it. But I think your link to the Asset Cards is broken.
Whoops, should be fixed now!
