The Spider and The City
A gritty gangster fantasy set in an alternate dystopian Chicago, The Spider & City has you play as a criminal mastermind trying to rise above your humble roots. With quick time-based prompts that give way to intricate decision trees and dice rolls for more resource management elements inspired by Blades of the Dark or Thousand Year Old Vampire, it's easy enough for newcomers without prior experience in tabletop games but requires dedication from experienced players looking to immerse themselves further into their preferred system
