Tonight at 10pm GMT is the second episode of Not DnD on EN Live! Tune in at 10pm GMT (6pm EDT). Tonight, host Jessica Hancock is excited to welcome Epidiah Ravachol on this week's stream of Not DnD. They'll be talking about his game Dread and how to build tension in your horror ttrpgs.
Dread is a game of horror and hope. Those who play will participate in a mutual telling of an original macabre tale. The goal of Dread is to sustain the delicate atmosphere that invokes the hand quivering emotion that lends its name to the game. The thrill of a Dread game lies within the tension between desire and loss. You will take on the role of someone trapped in a story that is only as compelling as it is hostile—someone who will find themselves making decisions we hope never to face in real life.
It is the horror roleplaying game that uses Jenga® instead of dice. Pull from the tower and you succeed. Refuse to pull and you fail. The choice is yours. But if the tower falls . . .
