| Play Your Cards Right, Catch the Necromancer. A Journaling Game of Method, Motive, and Opportunity In a Forested Minnesota Town. From the back cover: In a small town in the forested Minnesota hills someone is back from the dead. So now you're there, a lone FBI detective, to catch the criminal necromancer who did it. It's a nice town. Fishing for lake trout is pretty great. The diner serves a good cup of coffee. Hopefully you just do what you need to do and don't get too drawn in. The Balsam Lake Unmurders is a journaling game. Playing cards represent suspect and interactions you have with them trying to discerern if they're the necromancer and you write in your journal how they play out. Quotes from people who've played: "It's like Twin Peaks meets the X-Files." - Jason D'Angelo, playtester and author of The Daily Apocalypse "It felt like moving into a living space." - Camilla Zamboni, after six hours caught up in Balsam Lake "Even when I put the game down I keep turning it over and over in my mind." - Vincent Baker, creator of Apocalypse World "Paul, I seriously loved this game." - Gabrielle Rabinowitz, playtester and co-creator of Ma Nishtana |
