Asphodel Blues
A downloadable RPG
This is a tiny RPG designed for use in detective stories, inspired by ZA/UM’s mystery video game Disco Elysium and Vincent Baker’s tabletop engine Otherkind Dice.
It gives us detectives with finely-tuned Instincts that provide them with useful Hunches, but just as often lead them astray.
It is self-contained and relatively unobstructive, meaning that it can be bolted onto nearly any RPG system to give it a more Unusual flair, and to provide guidance for roleplay.
We will, however, provide an example system that we think fits very well with the rest of the system in the form of Guessing Coins.

This looks really promising. It is the closest thing I've seen to translating the vibe of Disco Elysium to a ttrpg. Bravo! Can't wait to play!
Thank you so much for taking a look! I'll still make some more changes at some point, but I'm glad you've found it interesting. Let me know what you think if you end up playing it!
