In line with Steam's Tabletop Fest 2021, Cultist Simulator's TRPG The Lady Afterwards is OUT NOW! But it sold out in 60s so we're offering 500 pre-orders via our website here.
The Lady Afterwards is a luxury boxed tabletop game inspired by classics like Chaosium's Horror on the Orient Express. It's a non-linear, combat-light, story-centric tabletop RPG for 2 - 8 players set in the Secret Histories - the world of Cultist Simulator - where hidden gods watch over a Lovecraftian world of apocalypse and yearning. It's been designed to offer an accessible experience to people who've hesitated to played TRPGs before, but to offer plenty of meat to tabletop aficionados too.
Each box includes everything you need for an evening of occult Egyptian noir, such as a full scenario and rulebook, 18 hand-stamped clues, a pocket tarot deck, full character sheets and pins, a large map, two sets of antique dice, and more!
See a full list of contents and see all our beautiful photos on our shop, and watch us chat through a very chill, candle-lit unboxing session here. We're only releasing 100 boxes in this first run, though if it sells out in a trice we have contingency plans ready!
For anyone who misses out - or for anyone who prefers their TRPGs digital - we're releasing a digital-only version on Thursday 18th November, on our shop, Steam, and various online RPG sites like DriveThruRPG. If you want to be notified when that's available, make sure you're signed up to our mailing list!
(The boxed edition includes the digital edition, so you can play with friends who live close and friends who live on the other side of the world.)
Tabletop Fest
Celebrating The Lady Afterwards' release, Cultist Simulator is 40% off in the Tabletop Fest! This includes all DLC, and means the Anthology Edition is currently an alarmingly good deal at 55% off. Cult your hearts out!
To celebrate The Lady Afterwards and Tabletop Fest, we're releasing some freebie character sheets for D&D and 1920s Call of Cthulthu games. Download 'em here!
Steam also invited us to create a whole Cultist Simulator Game Profile, which we've designed around being actually in the House Without Walls. Check it out - and maybe buy it with your Steam points! - in the Steam Points Shop.
Developer AMA
We’re running a developer AMA on the Weather Factory subreddit today from 6.30PM BST / 10.30AM PDT. Join us to celebrate The Lady Afterwards‘ release, ask us about That Damned Library Game and wonder at AK’s ability to avoid answering lore questions!
We’ll keep the AMA ticking over the whole weekend, so if you can’t make it today, feel free to leave a question and we’ll answer as and when.
We’ll be back in person on the subreddit on Monday 25th October at 4PM BST / 8AM PDT to wrap the AMA up. Hope to see you there!
