One of Us Will Die is a tabletop social deduction roleplaying game system developed for four to six (4 - 6) players, game master included. From the game's start, one player is aware that their character will die at the end of the game. All others must use their skills of observation to identify who among them is marked for death before it’s too late!

This game has three roles:

Mark - Leads their character through the story towards their eventual death.
Adventurers - Deduces who among them is the Mark in an attempt to replace them in death.
Traitor - Deduces who among them is the Mark in an attempt to kill them before they achieve their destined fate.

Each player chooses a character archetype, each of which has different milestones depending on the player's role.

This is a Starter Set gives the GM the tools and rules to run a game of One of Us Will Die. It includes one sample scenario and five character archetypes for the players to choose from.

The purpose of this early access version of the game is to raise funds for the development of the full physical version of the game.

One of Us Will Die Features for the upcoming full game:

  • Pick-up-and-play rules lite system that focuses more on storytelling than gameplay.
  • Works very well with horror, adventure, fantasy and mystery settings!
  • Minimal preparation system. Just take it off the shelf and play a game.
  • Death means drama. The looming promise and certainty of character death raises the stakes in every game. No second chances, no classic GM guilt. Someone WILL die.
  • No math! More story! – Stories are told with words, not numbers. Character sheets are filled up by answering important character questions to grant each character special strengths and weaknesses.
  • World Building System – Each scenario and campaign will feature a set of world building questions to make every experience unique to every group!
  • Archetypes – Each of the 15 archetypes has a unique character sheet that is fillable in less than ten minutes.
  • Milestones - Unique story goals called milestones for each archetype add dramatic flavor to every character arc.
  • Destiny Points – Hitting your archetype’s story goals grant you powerful resources called destiny points which allow you to push the narrative in your favor.
  • Campaign mode – Play through an epic adventure of your making over several sessions, all building up to the tragic or heroic death of one of the main characters.
  • Ten one shot scenarios included in the full book, five of which are part of a stand-alone campaign based on the works of HP Lovecraft
  • Bestiary – For those looking to spice up combat with special enemies and monsters! Secret mechanics – Each archetype has secret mechanics known only to the game master.
