What is Thrilling Noir Stories
Thrilling Noir Stories is a storytelling or roleplaying game where the players impersonate private detectives, cops or other investigators from 1940s USA.
Thrilling Noir Stories was designed to allow the players to immerse in stories based on the pulp magazines from the first half of the 20th century or the movies of the “Film Noir” genre.
