Coming for #ZineQuest, #ZineMonth, and/or #Zinetopia!

The Poison Course is a mystery RPG scenario where PCs must sleuth out the Villain—it's like a game of Clue run with a light d20 rule set in 1790s New Orleans.

Final hours to back The Poison Course! This one-shot is like a game of Clue run with a lite set of d20 rules. PCs must sleuth out the Villain who's come to dinner. I'd love to get a few more people on board, so consider yourself invited!

It's still #ZineMonth, right? RIGHT?!?!?

When I'm about to do something I want to go well, I'll say, "Maximum Effort!"

When there's something I really want to go well, there's only one phrase that will do.

The Poison Course is live!

I hope you're not zine'd out yet... because my project is launching for #ZineMonth tomorrow!

The Poison Course is an easily understandable, eminently replayable, OSR-compatible mystery one-shot.

I'm hoping to get two (2)--just TWO--more folks to follow:

Coming for #ZineMonth, "The Poison Course." It's like the game "Clue," except:

1) d20-based rules, widely OSR compatible.
2) Set in New Orleans, circa the 1790s.
3) Guests are the suspects.
4) PCs are members of the staff trying to stop the crime.

The good Lady Buckingham has replied in the affirmative, but her husband won't be able to attend. Won't you join her?

Sure, I could continue to fiddle with the Story or try to get more art in. But there comes a time when you have to click that "Launch project" button.

The Poison Course is live on Kickstarter for #ZineMonth and #ZineQuest.

Itching for a chaotic, twisty one-shot? Look no further than The Poison Course.
House staff PCs must suss out the Villain, but a real-time "Chore Die" mechanic can derail their sleuthing at any moment.

I'd love it if you signed up for the pre-launch (link 👇).

Another aspect of The Poison Course is its flexibility:

- Replay: Like its board game inspiration, a different guest can be the Villain each play.
- Reuse: The manor & cast can drop into any campaign, or adjust to any time period.

I'm happy to announce my project The Poison Course.

Coming to Kickstarter for #ZineQuest & #ZineMonth.
