DEMONBREAKERS
A downloadable game
When th're is something strange in thy fantasy city, who is't shall thee summon? DEMONBREAKERS!
If you're thinking Ghostbusters, but in the setting of Monty Python and the Holy Grail, you're in the right headspace for DEMONBREAKERS... Lets go!
You are Demonological Lorists, recently unemployed after the College Arcane terminated your grant due to your allegedly sloppy methods and questionable conclusions. In desperation you’ve started an exorcism business, just as Hell’s Gates have opened in your fantasy city, unleashing a torrent of demonological activity.
No GM required! all players will cooperate to create scenes, introduce consequences, and resolve conflicts. The rules are one page. The game uses mechanics found in no dice, no masters games. And there are card-driven prompts to help players embody npcs and opposition.

This is so awesome! May I ask how many players you recommend?
omg thanks, and sorry I missed your comment. It works well with 2-4. I’ve found 3 to be a sweet spot. I haven’t tested it solo or with more than 4.
