Summary

A duet roleplaying game of a parasite and its host

Full Description

A ripple glides across your scalp. Like something many-legged crawling. You remember who you were; kind, selfless, caring. Perhaps, you start to wonder, if it was all a dream... What is Host? Host is a two-player tabletop roleplaying game exploring a parasite and its host. Using only a deck of standard playing cards, one player will embody a parasite attempting to modify the mind of the other player.  Throughout play, you will find yourself exploring the memories of an individual; an individual that at some point became residence to a malicious entity. This creature will endeavour to warp the memories of the individual to its own selfish desires.  By the end of the game, you will have a rich history of a person, perhaps once noble and righteous, fallen to the dark whims of an evil within. Perfect to star as your next big bad in another tabletop game. Key Features Simple core rules that are easy to learn. 8 unique archetypes to select from, each flavourful and distinct. Unsettling and evocative art by Brandon Lee. Short playtime, taking around 20 minutes for a full game. Physical copies now available! High quality zines of Host are now available for purchase!
