Black Flies is a hidden objective role playing game where you're narrating chilling scenes to be the spookiest entity in Evergreen, Maine. It contains everything you need to put together a quick game and tell a scary story. It's like if "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" was a game. And you're the evil entity in it.

Gather Followers, perform horrific Abilities, and complete your Fortune (your hidden objective), and ascend to immortality through the great powers of the fly god cryptid Zzrtrzz.

Like all games from Goosepoop Games, we're determined to make games that are accessible & absurd. Black Flies is no exception to this. Black Flies is meant to learn as you play, so there's minimal rules you need to know up front. Seriously though, where else are you going to haunt a New England town and turn into a cloud of flies? (Oh, did I mention the book flips upwards like flies swarming around? Yeah, it's pretty weird.)

10-Minute Quick Start rules are fitted right inside the cover of Black Flies. The perfect tool for facilitators and players to get a grasp of the gameplay.

Pre-made Characters are here and ready to get spooky. Simply answer a couple questions for your backstory, add some stat points, and you're ready to play.

Dice Pool Narrative Mechanics make storytelling engaging and exciting! The tension builds the more the story unfolds and the dice pool runs out. Will you achieve your Fortune before time runs out?

Map Building & Destroying documents the games you've played. Wherever you go, the dark forces of Zzrtrzz distorts the world, turning it into a pile of dirt and decay. Fun!
