Adam Vass and Will Jobst have recently launched a very unique tabletop RPG through Good Luck Press, called “This Discord Has Ghosts in It.” This game is a new TTRPG that uses Discord as a haunted house, and offers players a completely new and innovative gaming experience. The game is designed for between 6-16 players, and can be enjoyed over a period of 1-3 hours.
In “This Discord Has Ghosts in It,” half of the players take on the roles of ghosts, while the other half are investigators, and one player serves as the facilitator. The game includes 13 pre-made haunts with Discord templates, which adds to the overall immersive experience.
One of the unique features of this game is that ghosts cannot use voice channels, while investigators can only speak via a voice channel. Additionally, each player has their own secret motives, which adds an element of suspense and intrigue to the game.
If you’re looking for a new and exciting gaming experience, “This Discord Has Ghosts in It” is definitely worth checking out. It offers players a chance to explore a haunted house through the lens of Discord, providing an immersive experience that is unlike anything else in the world of TTRPGs. With its creative concept and well-designed mechanics, this game is sure to provide hours of thrilling entertainment.
Players split into two teams: investigators and ghosts.
Ghosts may only type, filling the channels of a Discord with frights! Spreading horror throughout the rooms and spaces of this house with text, images, audio, or video.
Investigators may only speak in a voice channel, with everyone listening in, like walkie-talkies or shouts throughout the space.
Throughout the game, ghosts haunt rooms while investigators explore, get spooked, and learn about the ghosts, all while narrating the horror to all players and hinting at their secret motives. Ghost players reveal parts of themselves by creating new rooms, in turn making the house a labyrinth. Investigators get to the bottom of these mysteries and spill secrets of their own.
Every game culminates in a supernatural seance. In this final act, confront each ghost about their mysteries, and each investigator about their secrets.
