The town of INCHWICK holds a deadly secret. In its dark woods, in its maze-like streets, in the depths of the old coal-mine, nefarious rituals are carried out for the veneration of a terrible, unseen master. A group of survivors have stumbled across their secret. Now they are coming and the only refuge is an abandoned cabin in the forest. The survivors just have to make it to dawn, but what unseen horror is coming for them?

This is a new horror RPG I picked up on Itch.io. We gave it a try, so enjoy! We ran through it twice and put it together for this actual play.

A group of peasants cannot stand the evil tyrant Wendy and her brutal regime. The final fry was the arrest of the people’s hero, Hamburglar. They need to gather allies like the Five Guys and resources like the money from the Panera bread bank if they hope to defeat her castle guard. Before that, they have to break through the clown cordon. It’s going to be a delicious revolution!

An invasion of monstrous creatures overwhelms Earth. Appearing from slipgates, the monsters are poised to wipe out humanity. A group of rangers embark on a mission beyond the slipgate to secure a mystic rune held by the monsters. It won’t be easy..

This is part 2 of our Pixel 2 Paper series. Listen to part 1 here, where Chris and I discuss Quake 1, the video game inspiration for this RPG, Slipgate Chokepoint.
