A few years back when the Sherlock Holmes series entered the public domain in whole, I expected a deluge of TTRPG products that never really came. Nevola Lab, however, is here to meet my expectations with Holmes & Co Quickstart , an introduction to their mystery RPG focused on deduction, reasoning, and storytelling. Four pre-generated detectives solve The Golden Key, a case set in 1896 Edinburgh with maps, clues, and suspects along with streamlined rules focused on observation, perception, personality, and cultural knowledge.
  • Price: Pay What You Want (Suggested: $1.00)

Inspired by high-octane (and high body count) action films like John Wick and the works of John Woo, the Catalyst & Cinder System is a new d100-based rule system focused on fast-paced, stylish action with brutal consequences in a world where rival organizations fight one another in a hidden war of balance vs. chaos.

  • Price: Pay What You Want (Suggested: $5.00)

Want to add a bit of absurdism to your Call of Cthulhu games? Choya has Rryonn, a scenario where you’re challenged to…eat a tangerine? Maybe? By reducing the classic “you must do something to escape the room” trope down to its absolute minimum this horror-without-the-horror scenario came from a question of what if the object of fear was something nobody could actually find scary and leave it to the players to pretend to be afraid of the most mundane thing possible?
