A journaling game of the making or breaking of a vigilante hero.
As you playBleakest Knight, you'll imagine yourself as a masked vigilante at an early stage of their career in crimefighting, who is about to face the toughest Night of their career. Victory or defeat over the supervillains whose schemes take place tonight will be make or break for you, the rise of a new legend or the end of a footnote in the annals of masked crimefighting. Optionally, you can choose to act as an external narrator following the actions of such a vigilante over the course of the night. The cards you draw provide seeds for a narrative: as you write your journal it's up to you to interpret the cards and weave your story.
This game is based on Flee the Flood.
You will need:
- A journal (or paper)
- A pen or pencil
- A deck of 52 cards + 2 jokers (or you can print out the cards provided with the game)
- A six-sided die
