Dweller Among the Dead is a self-guided single-player ttrpg about the experience of apostasy in a religious or otherwise tradition-bound community. You are of the Liminal People, descended from refugees of the ancient Dead City, now resident of the City of the Dead. Your every breath and step must mediate the space between the living and the dead. Life is ritual. Care is paramount.
Or so you have been taught.
Dweller Among the Dead does not directly reference any actual existing world religions.

This was a short but very fun and atmospheric game. The prompts felt moody, emotional and very atmospheric. I loved the having two D6's that represented tradition and impulse, and would have loved to have seen that struggle developed more. Awesome work, I highly recommend!
FYI I've just reviewed this game on my substack if you're interested :)
You're very kind.
