Nightwatch: Terror and Treasure in the Dark Corners of the World (2020)

NIGHTWATCH is a game about killing monsters. All kinds, anywhere, any time. You and your friends are members of the NIGHTWATCH: an ancient order of warriors, trackers, wizards, and alchemists dedicated to hunting down and destroying the malevolent creatures that terrorize humanity. Over the course of the game, your characters will rise through the ranks of their chosen Guild, gaining experience and unlocking new skills as they fight ever more dangerous enemies on the blood-soaked path to confront their ultimate quarry. Miniatures agnostic and adaptable to nearly any fantasy setting from Ancients to Black Powder, NIGHTWATCH is easy to learn and quick to play, with straightforward dice mechanics and minimal book keeping. Made for Cooperative or Solo gaming, you can read the book in an afternoon and gather your friends, your dice, terrain, and miniatures that evening for your first hunt. These rules are a framework for you to build your own tales of heart-stopping bravery, foul treachery, cringe-worthy cowardice, and most of all, epic victories against overwhelming odds. So sharpen your sword, check the flints on your pistols, and grab a healing potion; it’s time to give the monsters something to fear. —description from the publisher
