From the Trophy Trifolds jam roundups:

A brutal, surreal anticapitalist incursion of white-collar professionals, cut-throat provision of basic necessities, and lots and lots of rats.

Three things I liked:

  1. "I have no time for anyone whose backgrounds includes ever having been: Goths (occult),"
  2. "The landlord napping in the conservatory, rats crawling all over him."
  3. "A rat splitting open, miniature humans spilling out of its guts."

This is such a funny, creepy incursion - my players laughed a lot but we still managed moments of real creepiness and horror, which is exactly what I wanted. Super fun, highly recommend!

Thank you so much for the feedback, it’s very much appreciated! Glad you and your group enjoyed it.

A very nice interpretation of the theme, with probably the best intro of a ttrpg product I have ever read. It has a fantastic vibe reminding me of “intelligent Rat“ short stories like “Barney“. This is next in line to be ran.

Thank you! I’d love to hear a play report afterwards!
