VHS – VERY HORROR STORIES Demons, monsters and bloodthirsty killers lurk in the darkest recesses of our world, inhumane beings who know only violence and, driven by vengeance or evil, wish for only one thing. The suffering of their prey. Yours. Take up your torches, venture in their own realms and do what you can to make it out alive. VHS: Very Horror Stories is a Horror Role Play Game inspired by ‘70’s, ‘80’s and ‘90’s classics such as Hellraiser, Nightmare, Alien, Halloween and many more, coming in three stand-alone boxed sets that allow you to play in a different subgenre of Horror each. Bloodlust, slasher movies; Overplague, horror sci-fi; Unchained, supernatural horror.

Press Play… and Scream! Each VHS can be played alone without needing the other two. The basic rules are contained in each box, but for each VHS change (in addition to the contents) the adaptation rules to different settings, the lists of traits, the special abilities and the customization guidelines.

Welcome to Unchained, the VHS dedicated to supernatural horror. Prepare to fight demons from other dimensions, immortal tormentors and fanatical cults praying for hell to swallow our world.

No amulet against their curses. No blade or gun to harm their hellforged forms. No place cleansed enough to stop the contamination borne by their black souls. This is Unchained and here skeptics are the first to die.

No weapon powerful enough to destroy them. No ship strong enough to withstand their attacks. No planet prepared enough to halt their invasion. This is Overplague and nobody can hear you scream.

Do you hear sharpening knives and chainsaws roaring in the night? Then hope to be fast enough to outrun them… or lucky enough to die quickly. Welcome to Bloodlust, the VHS dedicated to slasher movies. Prepare to bloodthirsty murderers, cannibal families and creatures that live to kill and feed on pain. YOUR pain. No escape from their clutches. No one to hear your screaming. No flashlight to light the path to salvation from their blood-soaked dens.

This is a plain-text, black-and-white version of Infærnum, focusing on readability. It features the same content as the hardcover edition, with a softcover and lower MSRP.

Infærnum is a rules-lite RPG focused on apocalyptic themes. Everything starts with a major event: a prophecy that triggers the end of times. Over seven days (in the narrative), players must face all challenges and reach the promised land before the end of all things, facing the four horsemen and other tropes of the Book of Revelation.
Or not. In this highly original game, you define your own vision of the Apocalypse. It can work with any campaign or setting for any system besides the standalone premise presented by the game. That means you can simply use Infaernum on top of your current RPG campaign, whatever system that might be, to explore an end-of-world scenario. It’s essentially your doomsday device and toolbox.
The book also includes a vast collection of optional rules, supplements, and settings that make Infaernum the ultimate doomsday device. You pick and choose what you want to use according to how you want to play at any given moment. It includes modes inspired by popular games and tropes like Shadow of the Colossus, Diablo, Dark Souls, and Cyberpunk 2077, plus alternate ways to play, which include a dungeon crawler element, an enemy generator, ways to use decks of regular playing cards and even a Tarot Arcana, as well a sneak peek into 1,000 years AFTER the end of your world! Mix and match them as you want for the most insane results! This award-winning Role-Playing experience can fit any style or setting for Solo, Co-Op, or Guided play. Not for the faint of heart.

Underneath is a game of what we encounter when we venture alone in the dark.

Cavernous chambers, strange creatures, bugs, and the remains of lost civilizations are all lying dormant under your feet, just waiting to be found. What’s waiting underneath for you?

Underneath is a solo game of map-making and journalling that you will play between the game book, your excursion journal, a map, and a pair of six-sided dice propelling your character through this cave system.

Pick your character and start rolling, the cave system has much to discover, such as: Features, Paths, Encounters, Obstacles, Discoveries, and Caverns. Each of these different elements of the cave builds out the system and what you will find there, with each new path potentially leading you into a Scenario cavern, a large room in the cave that holds many secret and strange things. Find yourself in Scenarios such as Arora’s Cove: a fungal nightmare, The Still: a vast quiet lake, or The Database: a series of interconnected terminals built into the rock.

Once you’ve entered the cave, it’s time to map the system, charting your exploration alongside recording your findings and responses to the prompts associated with each part of the cave into your excursion journal. Manage your gear, your skills, and the dangers in the environment while still trying to find your way back out alive.

Ten Candles is a tragic horror tabletop roleplaying game based around cooperative storytelling. It is designed for one-shot sessions (rather than ongoing campaigns) and can be played with any number of players and one gamemaster. A game of Ten Candles lasts 2-3 hours. Players take the roles of survivors in the middle of a sunless apocalypse, living out the last few hours of their character’s lives. The gamemaster controls Them, the unseen adversaries who stalk just beyond the light’s edge. But this isn’t a story about monsters. This is a story about what happens in the dark. What happens to those who fight against it, seek hope within it, and inevitably become consumed by it.
