The Revenant Society: The Endless Loop Beneath the City is a tabletop roleplaying game which is inspired by the Powered by the Apocalypse system. Like other PbtA games, you roll 2D6 for your Moves - there are group Moves and character specific ones, that have success, partial success or miss. It’s up to the Fate Weaver to determine what that means, but it could be resolved in the form of gained/lost information, damage to your already fragile corpse, or adding Watchers to the board.

Designed by Banana Chan and Sen Foong-Lim, The Revenant Society can be played with two to four players acting as the Revenants and a Fateweaver (GM) leading the story. Each session will take 2-4 hours to play. This game uses the Powered by the Apocalypse system.

Carter ★★★★★

The 2D6 move system here feels familiar but the loop mechanic genuinely changes how my group plays—we've been stuck replaying the same night for three sessions now and nobody's bored yet. Character creation took under an hour, which is rare for my table.

Violet ★★★★★

I've run a few PbtA games before, so the 2D6 move system felt familiar right away, but the endless loop premise gives it a genuinely tense twist. Our group spent most of session one just arguing about which death to chase next, which is exactly what I wanted from it.

Joseph F. ★★★★★

The 2D6 move system clicks immediately—my group had characters up and rolling within ten minutes of cracking the book open. The endless loop premise underneath the city gives our sessions this tense, Groundhog Day energy that keeps everyone on edge.
