The Tell Tale Ticking is a storytelling duet TTRPG about death, grief, paranoia, and being your own Unreliable narrator.
You play as The Guilty and The Perished, using tarot cards to retrace your steps leading up to the sudden, tragic death of The Perished.
Can The Guilty trust their own Memories? They cannot be certain, especially with the incessant ticking that haunts their every waking moment. The Perished follows, communicating through a metronome as they get closer to the Truth.
The Tell Tale Ticking can be played in under an hour, in any setting or genre, without a GM, and solo. No physical metronome or knowledge of tarot required!
This game deals with themes of death, murder, paranoia, grief, delusion, and memory loss. It is not recommended for players who have misophonia or cannot tolerate constant, repetitive sounds. More tools for safe gameplay are provided.
