Wyrd Mist
Coming soon to Kickstarter: A deck-building TTRPG for standard playing cards.
You live in a small Pacific Northwest town: an out-of-the-way place with a quaint Main Street, neighbors who know where you went for coffee last Tuesday, and the all-important local Rutabaga Produce Festival.
And beneath it all, there’s something else. Something wyrd is waking up.
Your adventure unfolds with a standard deck of cards and six-sided die for each player.
