Flowers Withered on the Stem is a role-playing game about vampires and their monstrous nature, but perhaps more importantly about the blood ties that bind them together.

Kickstarter coming soon. Quickstart out now, print and play, pay what you want.

The campaign for our Soulslike, roguelike story TTRPG is nearing its end.

It’s a weird little game and we’re a weird little publisher—we’ve already maxed out our own reach.

Please consider reposting so that the game might find more of its weird little audience!
