Wicked Congregation (Patreon)

To fight off any anxiety of my new job (which starts tomorrow), I've been working hard on my Bureau of Paranatural Survey Wretched & Alone game called Wicked Congregation!! I'll probably have a PDF playtest document ready by the end of the week for Champion Tier patrons. I just need to finish up one more section and then it is complete!

Will Parks, the graphic designer I worked with on Ross Rifles, will be laying out the final version of the game. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here's the pitch:

Wicked Congregation is a solo game about isolation, survival, and hopelessness. It was inspired by The Wretched by Chris Bissette and the B.P.R.D.: Plague of Frogs story cycle by Mike Mignola. It's also inspired by the following films: The Crazies (1973 & 2010), Slither(2006), and SCP: Overlord (2020). Video games like Resident Evil 4 (2005), Resident Evil 7: Biohazard (2017), Far Cry 5 (2018), and Control (2019) also served as major inspirations.

You are a field agent of the Bureau of Paranatural Survey (BPS), a clandestine agency formed for a single purpose: to seek, explore, and contain strange phenomena or entities that exhibit, or have the potential to cause, harm to human life and civilization.

Your team set out to a remote mountain town [REDACTED] to investigate the mysterious activities of [REDACTED], the charismatic and powerful leader of a deadly esoteric cult known as the New Temple of Bliss. Your intelligence suggested the [REDACTED] was in possession of a [REDACTED]-class paranatural object. The mission was simple - establish containment of the town and identify, engage, and subdue any paranatural phenomena.

When your team arrived, the Town appeared to be abandoned. Then the church bells began to toll, drawing your team towards the chapel. It was there that you encountered the New Temple of Bliss and the powerful object their leader wielded. As your team is quickly overrun by followers of the Cult, you manage to narrowly escaped with your life and the Object.

Now you are hunted by the Cult. Day and night they stalk the streets of the Town looking for you and what you have taken from them. They will not stop and you are running out of time.
