From BoardGameGeek
Pericle: Gathering Darkness is a bold new tabletop RPG that combines a fantasy RPG world with a ground-breaking app called Loremaster. App-driven gameplay presents the campaign, which takes away the need for a Game Master, and offers branching storylines so that player decisions impact and change the world around them. Dice-based combat and important story decisions anchor Pericle: Gathering Darkness in the realm of classic RPG gaming, while streamlined mechanics and a classless hero creation system give players the freedom to engage in tactical combat using totally unique characters. The world of Pericle awaits!
Pericle: Gathering Darkness has 16 videos from 11 creators: 8 reviews, 6 unboxings and 2 other videos. They date from 2022 to March 2026.
If you like it, try Pericle: Labyrinth, also by Stephen Claypool, or Enormity, Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion and Deliverance, which share several of its mechanics. It appears in convention videos from GAMA Expo 2023.
