Blightfall: Bleak Edition
A downloadable game
The black-and-white, no-art full rules for Blightfall, dark fantasy TTRPG for a GM and 3-5 players. Doomed villagers infected with darkness sacrifice shreds of their humanity for the power to protect their home. A unique system, part collaborative worldbuilding to create your shared civilization and threats, part narrative and combat engine to play inside your creation. But no matter what you do, your characters will eventually become abominations.
This is the near final version of the game (might be a few sentences here and there I haven't updated).
