Fear of the Unknown Quickstart
by Howard F. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 11/09/2022 22:43:23

FANTASTIC! I’ve played many different RPG systems, and Fear of the Unknown is definitely the best. Fear of the Unknown was recently voted best RPG system at the “Weekend with Good Friends, Virtual Con (Summer 2022).

What I love about Fear of the Unknown: Simple, easy to learn RPG system.
All you need are two, 6-sided dice (2d6). Perfect choice for introducing family and friends to tabletop RPG gaming. Your players will be interested and engaged in the story! Players have great agency in deciding where the story takes place.
Great for impromptu, 1-shot games as well as multi-session campaigns.

Have you ever bought a module (pre-made story) for an RPG, but your friends didn’t care for it? Have you ever spent weeks writing your own RPG adventure, but your players cannot remember a single detail about the story? Fear of the Unknown empowers the players to create the town where the mystery occurs. A few more questions will allow each player to create their own character. That’s the beauty of Fear of the Unknown. The players are invested in the story and in their character because it’s their story.

-Howard

Murder Most Foul - Core Rulebook
by Michael I. [Verified Purchaser] Date Added: 05/10/2022 14:10:00

Keep in mind this review is based on a read-through only. It may play just find but I find the idea of an rpg with scoring to be a little bizarre. I also find the concept of attempting to murder each other at a dinner party to not be a little disconcerting. The truly awful rule that ruins the game is that the accused player is the loser. This rule is rife with the worst sort of social deduction game issues where players can be targeted (and / or framed) for no other reason than to get them to lose. This game seems like it may kick up enough interpersonal drama amongst family or friends to avoid playing but it may be fun in practice.

With regards to the rule where the accused player loses, keep in mind that if that player did not actually commit the murder, then the detective (the person doing the accusing) also loses. It's there as an incentive not to get caught - otherwise, why not just commit the murder in broad daylight, with everyone watching?
