The doomsday clock is ticking, and monsters are our only hope to stop it. At last, APOCALYPSE KEYS is available as a beta. But don& #39;t be fooled, it& #39;s a fully fleshed out set of playbooks accompanied by rich tools and content to GM with. https://twitter.com/temporalhiccup/status/1298660916943175680">https://twitter.com/temporalh...

My partner @temporalhiccup has been working on it since March, putting many of the concepts through the paces of rigorous playtesting and QA. And that& #39;s just the beginning. Towards release, more mysteries, guidance on how to create your own will get folded in.

This is the most ambitious Sword Queen Game yet, in my opinion, drawing inspiration from all versions of Hellboy and the BPRD, the urban melancholy of games like Unavowed, the square shouldered against the odds attitude of Evolve and the clinical weirdness of Control.

I& #39;ve also been working closely with them to curate a playlist that sets the mood for the game. "Apocalypse Keys, Volume 1: Our Doom Will Save Us All" is inspired by moody, dark and gruff monster hunters and fallen angels. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7t25cQESvjR96g81efu0Ww?si=Nx4D0YffS3GRqlf0DTTe7A">https://open.spotify.com/playlist/...

If you pick up APOCALYPSE KEYS BETA 1.0 based on this thread, I hope you enjoy it. It& #39;s all my partner has been talking about for months! We& #39;ll eventually have a Google form up for feedback, but in the meantime have a great time cancelling the apocalypse.
