Call If You See Anything Strange
Call If You See Anything Strange is designed to fit onto business cards, but can also be played independently. The goal of this game system set in urban fantasy stories about paranormal private eyes solving mysteries for clients while posing as a detective from the 1940s era or 1920's crime- busting investigator John Smith who don't stop at asking questions until they know where you've been and what your "witness" has seen...or is afraid to tell them. The game features an ideal system set in storytelling campaigns centered around solving supernatural mysteries for clients on their behalf, while players can hand out business cards as the characters of a hard-boiled detective or investigator who's always looking over his shoulder with caution and suspicion - this time at those he suspects are part of some secret society that controls everything.
