Dark Designs
Dark Designs is a rules-lite tabletop roleplaying game where players play desperate adventurers living by their traumatic experiences and taking on roles in the bleak profession they are forced into due to trauma from past events (coop or solo). The system was designed with influences of Cthulhu, Trophy, inspired by Graham Walmsley's Lone wolf Solo TTRPG jam Mk2 as a sole game.
