I loved writing this review and I think trad gamers looking for more narrative games would really like this.
Using @chaosium.bsky.social 's Basic Roleplaying System, In Death from @jacobdimwood.bsky.social finds a bridge between trad and story tabletop gaming as much as one between life and death. @jellyfishlines.itch.io explores these connections in his review:

Today in Night Owl X,
We're working on our idle animations for NPCs, breathing some life into the world.
Really enjoying how much of a piece of shit this NPC comes across as now.

Strange to think I released my first ever #TTRPG book over 3 months ago!
In Death was a labour of love that I'm very proud of, and it's surreal it out there in the world and in the hands of players.
To any who've picked up a copy already, thank you and I hope you enjoy it.

I started adding in talking animations for NPCs, which will come in tandem with some more complex idle animations to breathe a bit more life into the world.

I made these little door prefabs for the two existing shops. One takes Nox to the Clipper Wings barber shop to choose new hairstyles, and the other to Hoot Cups coffee shop to purchase movement upgrades.
