The new Dark Conspiracy RPG will be here in just a few months - and we have been running some previews of the game mechanics on our blog, Planet Mongoose!

Dark Conspiracy is a science fiction roleplaying game set in our own modern world – or just a few years hence. A terrible threat lurks in the shadows, one utterly unknown by most of humanity. If the world is to be kept safe, this ignorance must be maintained. A conspiracy of secrecy, ignorance and darkness must be constructed, for the greater good of all.
The danger is real. Merciless creatures from other dimensions, utterly alien to human experience, press against the veil to breach into our world. Their purpose is not understood but the determination to corrupt and destroy us is beyond doubt. In the past, they were called ghosts or ‘supernatural entities’.
Dark Minions are so much more than that.
Your players will be Operatives, recruited as highly skilled individuals in whom the utmost trust has been placed. They are drawn primarily from the militaries and intelligence agencies from across the world, though exceptionally gifted people with strange talents have begun to manifest amongst the global population. Others find them a little strange, unhinged even, but despite the problems they inevitably have when integrating into an otherwise highly disciplined group, their abilities are beginning to prove useful.
However, the wider world cannot know about this threat. No one knows the extent to which it has corrupted the power structures of the planet, and the defenders of humanity are simply not ready to take the fight to the enemy – right now, they do not even know the nature of the threat, what its goals are, or just what it is capable of.
Actions taken against the ultimate evil must be done with the utmost secrecy, whatever the cost.
In this game, your players will be creating the conspiracy, even as they try to untangle others.
