The Lady Afterwards is a non-linear, combat-light, story-centric tabletop RPG for 2-8 players inspired by classics like Chaosium's Horror on the Orient Express and set in the world of double-BAFTA-nominated video game Cultist Simulator.
It takes place in 1920s Alexandria, in the world of the Secret Histories, where hidden gods watch over a Lovecraftian world of apocalypse and yearning. It's been designed to offer an accessible experience to people who've hesitated to played TRPGs before, but to offer plenty of meat to tabletop aficionados too.
The Lady Afterwards includes:
The Lady Afterwards Game Runner's Guide, a 53-page scenario set in 1920s Alexandria
The Secret Histories Rulebook, a 30-page guide to Cultist's tabletop rules and mechanics
18 clues and handouts from billet-doux to telegrams
8 customisable character sheets, featuring Cultist characters like the Aspirant and the Bright Young Thing
Game Runner's Journal, to keep track of clues and game states
Map of Alexandria, showing off 1920s Egypt at its best
Mood-music, in a custom-built 1920s playlist!
The Lady Afterwards comes as a beautifully designed set of PDFs which you can use for digital TRPG sessions or print out for a noir evening with friends. Navigate to your Steam Library, right click on 'Cultist Simulator' and click 'Local files' and then 'Browse'. You'll see a window pop up with all local Cultist Simulator files, including your Lady Afterwards .zip file. :)
