Not An Evil Twin
The "Travels In Hopeless" RPG, written by Keith Healing, is based on the award-winning "Hopeless, Maine" graphic novel series by Tom and Nimue Brown. It's a quirky, tentacle-y Lovecraftian setting, with the game's action taking place on a misty, beshadowed island off the coast of Maine. There's magic, mystery, monsters...and probably something else beginning with "M". I'm given to understand that this is more of a story-game, with low emphasis on combat, but there are moments when one simply must whack something else over the head, so you can do that, as well. The game is contained in a 182 page bookmarked and indexed PDF, and is availble on DriveThruRPG and Etsy.
If you want to throw a few eyes on what the setting is like, the Hopeless Vendetta blog is a good place to start, with short fiction(?), poetry, and art, links to Tom's DeviantArt, and where to purchase the GNs and RPG.
