THE BLEAKNESS RPG

The Road cuts a scalpel scar across the howling wilds, pointing thin, straight, and true to the frozen north, hard earth cemented by thousands of plodding feet over slow centuries. Nothing grows on the desolate path, its edges as clear and stark against the wilderness as black ink on hymnal page.

This is the path you chose, Traveler.

EnterThe Bleakness.

The Bleaknessprovides a uniquely punishing atmospheric horror experience where failure and death are all but certain. Take to an ancient road as pilgrims struggling for survival against the wilderness and the horrors that haunt it. Simple and engaging survival mechanics keep tension high and ensure that danger is always present.

Heavily inspired by folk horror and the wilds of the PNW,The Bleaknessis a great change-of-pace game, with a campaign lasting between 10 and 20 hours on average.
