From publisher blurb:
“In the 1980s strange things happened everywhere!”
Bloat Games proudly presents Dark Places & Demogorgons. Dark Places & Demogorgons is an OSR Horror TTRPG set in the 1980s, where you play as teenagers from a small town where strange occurrences began popping up all around. The adults are too busy to care, and the police don't believe you. It’s up to you and your friends to figure out what’s going on and stop it from happening again!
Dark Places & Demogorgons for Old-School Essentials and Dark Places & Demogorgons The Cryptid Manual, utilizes the B/X rules revised to perfection in Old-School Essentials by Gavin Norman of Necrotic Gnome. Dark Places & Demogorgons for Old-School Essentials and The Cryptid Manual will give the ultimate 1980s Retro Roleplaying experience.
