Hello, Gauntleteers! The Kickstarter for Thirteen Demon Princes has launched, and I think it may tickle the fancy of some folks around here. 🙂 The game is by Taylor LaBresh, whom you may know as the designer of the many fine offerings from Riverhouse Games and/or as the host of the Game Closet podcast (on which Jason was a guest not too long ago!). Thirteen Demon Princes is an RPG of Hell’s favorite dating show, based on the framework of the game Singularity (Aura Belle and Josh Jordan). Contestants on the show are (as you might guess) demonic royalty, and they vie to win the affection of the Morning Star. Each demon is representative of their domain in Hell, and each will have different feelings about and approaches to love. For example there’s The Demon Of Dreams, Whose Nightmares Rock The Mountains And Whose Visions Put The Mistiest Rainforests To Shame. And The Demon Of Scorn, Who Takes In Those Shunned And Who Forges Weapons Made Of Spite Itself. It’s weird, emotional, and fun, and so I thought it would go quite well around here. 🙂 Character kits are contributed by a suite of guest writers, including Aura Belle (of the original Singularity), Tobie Abad (A Single Moment, and also Sickening Queens, a Drag Race-based Fiasco playset!), and…somehow…also myself. It’s a seriously good team, and I’m very excited for this game.
I hope you check it out, and if you like it, please back it and spread the word! Thanks, all!

Gerrit Reininghaus Not out-of-the-box, as far as I know, but it’s easily portable to online play. The most LARPish thing about it is the desire for something like a dating show set, I think. It’s certainly perfectly fine tabletop, so should be fine online. There is a mechanic about passing tokens around, but I don’t think it’s anything RollForYourParty can’t handle. 🙂
