A cool Stranger Things-esque game where you play a group of kids investigating what is lurking in the woods at night. The stats of each character are not represented by fixed numbers, but by dice ranges from d4 to d8. Bravery points allow a player to reroll; secrets give a player narrative control; and skills allows the player to upgrade their dice. The mechanics are simple to understand, and feels fun! The story is played via three phrases, starting with the rather harmless evening, to the perilous twilight, until the kids confront the deep dark in the end. I love the five pregenerated prologues that are included in the game, which set up intrigue and provide a sense of danger.
