Carnivorous sentient fungi grown to monstrous size in massive corpse gardens no human eye has ever seen. Eldritch stone plinths jutting from impossible depths and mold-eating albino prophets. Ossuaries turned oracles and scabrous undead things scrambling around in the dark. Psychedelic mists hanging over ooze farms and ancient things sleeping deep within flooded causeways.

- DESCRIPTION: Terror lurks within the gloomy woodlands surrounding a sleepy English Village. For two to six players and can be played in one or two sessions.

STATIC Protocol by Arc Dream Publishing
- SYSTEM: Delta Green RPG
- PRODUCT TYPE: module supplement
- RETAIL PRICE: $19.99
- DESCRIPTION: Enhances Impossible Landscapes, a campaign adventure series, by collecting even deeper research from its sprawling timeline. Agents can piece together these fragments as they pursue secrets they may regret about the King in Yellow. It first touched the stage in the dying light of the 19th century and has arisen again and again to bring to human souls the bitter satisfaction of despair. Delta Green, a conspiracy dedicated to stopping unnatural terrors, enacted the STATIC Protocol as a ruthless response to the threat of The King in Yellow. Gathered together are secrets of otherworldly power. Of murder and memory that lengthen like the shadows cast by sinking suns. Of an invitation to a masquerade that never ends and is the end of all things. Of the bitter truths of Carcosa, The King in Yellow, and the Yellow Sign.
Sigil & Shadow by Osprey Publishing
- SYSTEM: d00Lite system
- PRODUCT TYPE: digest sized hardcover rulebook
- RETAIL PRICE: $35
- DESCRIPTION: Set in a mirror of the modern world, this game of urban fantasy and occult horror sees PCs take on the roles of illuminated heroes and shadowed monsters to face the rising tide of supernatural forces. Ancient nightmares lurk behind the closed doors of board rooms, entities from beyond time prowl the city streets, forgotten rituals are reborn as viral memes. Focuses squarely on the story rather than the mechanics - who the characters are and what they do, not how they do it. Easy to adopt to any mythos, campaigns can be built around a wide range of plots, with PCs taking the role of anything from paranormal investigators and monster hunters to members of occult cabals or secret societies.
Cocaine & Alligators by Exalted Funeral
- SYSTEM: Troika! Numinous Edition
- PRODUCT TYPE: softcover supplement
- RETAIL PRICE: $15
- DESCRIPTION: 36 Backgrounds, a short adventure, and a bunch of wild stuff based on actual Florida Man headlines and the author's experience living in Florida. This may be the greatest supplement for RPGs ever produced. Maybe. At the very least you can bring this to your next game and ask your GM if you can use one of the backgrounds as inspiration. If your GM asks why, just say that every game needs Cocaine & Alligators.
