Watch “What Lies Beneath,” a board game video for What Lies Beneath from Fervent Workshop - Chris Scaffidi on BoardGameVideo.
Description provided by Fervent Workshop - Chris Scaffidi on YouTube:
_You dream you’re in a chapel. Small, high-pitched voices sing an ancient song. Yet a sense of unease washes through you. The core is more macabre. Dream yields to waking confusion. Dust, bones and dried death. A flickering torch. Underground. A crypt._
_You catch a wisp of a breeze, heavy with the stench of rot. You gag. Yet a breeze suggests a way out. You take the torch, determined to get out of here alive._
# Synopsis
Structured as a branching narrative, What Lies Beneath invites you to direct the plot – but only if you master a unique combination of game mechanisms. Enjoy all the challenges of solo roleplay:
+ Buffing your character: Gain items that unlock new powers
+ Classic skill checks: Roll against thresholds to hit enemies
+ Intellectual puzzles: Manipulate dice using limited actions
+ Dexterity tests (optional): Flick dice at specified targets
And when (not if) you die, you can spend experience points to boost your next character. Perhaps, this time, you will survive.
*You only need to print 1 page (your character sheet). The rest of this game is a hyperlinked PDF.*
