The Sewers and the Stars is a standalone expansion for The Hidden Isle, our recently funded tabletop role playing game.
For those unfamiliar, The Hidden Isle is a pen-and-paper RPG that uses Tarot cards instead of dice, set in the sixteenth century. Focusing on roleplaying and collaborative storytelling, the game takes players on swashbuckling adventures across Europe and the Middle East as Agents from the secretive island of Dioscoria. No Tarot experience is required.
The Sewers and the Stars brings us two new settings, the city of Rome, and the island of Zanzibar, two new pre-written scenarios set in those locations, and two new character classes: the Swindler and the Scholar. Aspiring Agents can look forward to conning Portuguese troops on the shores of Zanzibar, sensing the greed of corrupt Roman cardinals, giving rousing lectures or speeches, and demonstrating their encyclopedic knowledge of obscure facts.
