Welcome to Rankston

Rankston is known by outsiders for the big city glitz and glamour of Tempo Plaza. But away from the flickering neon, residents are stacked up like vultures on a carcass, ripping scraps where we can take ‘em.

Mayor Baker and his rival Councilman Patterson sling mud at each other for the  pretense of political prestige, but the  real power is Commissioner  Kelly's alone. The Department enforces a warped “law and order” with short tempers and fast bullets. They use the violent mysteries that plague this city as impetus to incriminate anyone with the audacity to stand in their way.

Yet The Shiners work in the shadows to keep Kelly and his ruffians honest. We light a fire in the dark, investigating crimes undercover to ensure justice is served. To avoid the wrath of The Department, we have to move In Alleys Dark.

Glad I backed this, it looks very cool! Sorry if you've mentioned it somewhere in the games or on the Kickstarter and I missed it, but do these One Night Worlds games have a suggested minimum or a maximum number of players?

Overall, 1-5 would be the range I’d consider. I believe they’ll shine with 2-3 gm-less. With 4-5, they might benefit from one of those players acting as a facilitator.
