Small Town Gothic
A tabletop adventure game for players who hunt demons. The player takes their role as an occultist and a demon hunter walking into the bar in this Gothic setting inspired by American religious imagination, where they order drinks to keep track of items like bullets while counting totems with six-sided dice before leaving after shooting at a farmer's talking pigs. Players can play using unified mechanic for dungeon crawling or combat reactions without having to roll any more than one d20 and choose skills depending on the stakes taken in every action, such as lowering them by rolling into enemy encounter tables that are inspired from American religious imagination with items like weapons differentiated based off of their types instead relying solely on words.
