A PbtA game that just hit Kickstarter. Sounds like an amusing premise and I thought there might be some interest for it in the group. I personally love the Dresden books by Jim Butcher so I could really get off on a setting like this if done well.

This is interesting. I’m surprised there hasn’t already been a PbtA urban fantasy game.

I’ve only skimmed it, but what I saw looked interesting. Heavy emphasis on factions within the city and how the PCs stand with them. Also, it’s by the same guy that did the neat Star Wars AW hack as well as a Game of Thrones one that has my low-fantasy heart aflutter. Neither of these will ever actually get published, obviously, so I’m excited about Urban Shadows.

The corruption mechanic seems fun.
