City of Myst, new RPG of super-powered action and mystery in a dark urban setting

[City of Mist]

City of Myst is a new RPG about street-level individuals who become gateways through which mythical forces manifest in a dark and mysterious modern city.

Delve into the fog-shrouded streets of the city in search for answers, engage in cinematic super-powered clashes, and weather the drama of the inner conflict between everything you know and love and the Mythos trying to manifest through you.

• Tag-based characters allow for creative gameplay
• Rules-light Apocalypse Engine mechanics make your game more about the cinematics
• Conflicting Mythos and mundane aspects constantly drive you to explore your character's edge
• A film-noirish urban setting with cases ranging from small-time private investigations to full-blown conspiracies, all connected by an overarching mystical theme

Please tell me there's a building, or even a whole island, full of inscrutable puzzles that the players never are able to advance beyond.

Sorry my friend, this is a super-powered action and investigation game with lots of MYSTery and a MYSTical twist. We've gotten a lot of replies about the name... of course we knew about Myst but didn't think it would create such a backlash... so we're obviously considering a name change now.
