About Maskwitches
Maskwitches of Forgotten Doggerland is a storytelling game of the psychedelic Mesolithic. This standalone book brings your stories to Forgotten Doggerland – the land that lies drowned beneath the North Sea.
Cleaving close to the indie/story game end of RPGs, and powered by the minimalist Silver Road rules, you’ll take the role of the Maskwitches who struggle against evil spirits spawned by the troubles of the hunter-gather community you protect.
Troubles which frequently manifest as strange and horrific creatures which must be defeated in ritualised magical warfare.
In The Silver Road each character has two things they’re good at and two things they are bad at. In Maskwitches of Forgotten Doggerland, these take the form of the masks the witches wear, and amulets they carry. Witches are able to trade and change their masks, making their characters’ identities extremely fluid.
What other people are saying about Maskwitches:
“A game that feels like a conjuring – a curious and compelling artefact. It is strange in the best possible way, a genuine work of art from the prose to the mechanics to art.”
- Gareth Hanrahan, author of The Black Iron Legacy Series, The Lands Of The Firstborn Trilogy, The Eyes Of The Stone Thief, The Darkening Of Mirkwood.
"Maskwitches was one of the most immersive, emotional and dramatic games I ever ran."
- Royston Harwood, Maskwitches playtester
