[Bogeyman] Who's Coming to Get You?

Postby Destriarch » Mon Mar 29, 2010 4:45 am

We all have our little secrets.
Some are big, others small. They may be dirty, shameful or dire, soaked in the blood of the victims they claimed, burning in the embarrassment of their memory or the raging madness that can lurk behind even the kindest eyes. For some secrets, their keepers would die if they should be revealed. For others...

Would you kill to keep your secrets, or would your secrets kill for you?

Hush... do you hear that? The gently padded footfall, the click of claws on stone, the screech of rusted metal-on-metal and the roar of the distant thunder? Can you keep a secret?

The Bogeyman is Coming.



Bogeyman is a role-playing game of personal horror, where ordinary folk struggle against fearsome creatures born of the dark recesses of their own minds. This 164 page book contains a complete role-playing system specially designed with horror in mind. Plan your strategies carefully and play your cards well, for death is often only a shadow's breadth away. Use bluff and chicanery to mislead your opponents and keep a tight grip on the sweat of your brow. It may be the only advantage you have.

Featuring:
  • A complete, card-based role-playing system carefully crafted to enhance tension and reduce the need for tedious bookkeeping.
  • A detailed and fascinating account of the Bogeymen, creatures born from the skeleton in the closet. Who's coming to get YOU?
  • The Thunderstorm Method, an innovative game pacing mechanic designed to emulate the thrills and frights of horror movies.
  • Lavishly illustrated with the works of Dan Verkys, a true master of the macabre and of deeply
    disturbing art.

I don't get it, is this an ad? Is it a free game?

It's an advert. I guess I didn't make the web link in the middle of the post clear enough? If that's not what's confusing you please let me know so I can fix things.

It's an ad, which is ok but it's going to fall on deaf eyes.

That's pretty much the story of my life, but hey, so long as it's not against forum rules, I don't mind.

Ash, I wish you all the best with your project, Destriarch! If you ever tire of promoting it and getting nowhere and give it away as a free PDF then let me know!

Sorry, but that's not going to happen. I've spent too much time and effort getting this book to a professional level of polish. I don't want to devalue that work by giving it away for free. Besides, I'd feel like I was being disrespectful to the artist. That might sound a bit odd, but it's true. I'd feel really bad if I was giving his work away for free. I already have free products on the market for people who don't want to pay for stuff, so it's not like I'm not supporting the hobby.

I might at some point in the future release the system the book is based on as a free download, but not for a while yet, not the whole book, and certainly not with the same amount of time and detail dedicated to making it look so nice.

I'm glad you've come along and defended your advert! I applaud you.

You've got us all talking about your game, whereas usually stuff in the promotions section is largely ignored.

I will reiterate what Dr Mr The Lang said, If you eventually release your game free. You will find an amazing, friendly and resourceful community here to support you. If not All the best of luck,

some of us here do buy games too (shh..)

*Grins* yeah, everyone loves a freebie. I forget how many copies of my free game system 'Myriad' I've shifted, must be in the thousands by now. I think it's in the database here if anyone's not come across it yet.
