A Light in the Dark
The survivors huddle together in the church for protection, trusting its walls to hold against the monsters outside, while you find something that can save them all. Will you make it back through the darkness surrounding your village? Or will you fall in the effort? - TW/CW: Nyctophobia (fear of the dark) A Light in the Dark is a one-page, d6-based TTRPG about a group of travellers returning home with the magic item they need to save their village. It emphasises that anyone can be strong enough to succeed against all odds, not just heroes, and that everyone has a place in the world, even those we would cast as villains.
