ARGUS
You are a human.  You trek through the ruins of your once-home, sifting through the ashen wastes by night. By day you sleep.  You hide. From the EYES. It is the warmth of your skin, the wetness of your lips, the blood rushing through your veins that it is after. It will seep into your wounds and flay you alive. You seek a place beyond the horizon: paradise. They say you can transcend your human form there, and live out your days away from its terrible gaze. So they say. ~~~ A GM-less game for 1-3 players. Written for SCREAM ZONE Jam #9. CW: body horror, blood/violence, animal & human death, self-harm and suicide.
