B'town Beak-tectives
A downloadable game
Seagull Noir Role-playing
B'town Beak-tectives is a free-form investigative storytelling RPG that can be played with or without a Gull Master (GM). Each player creates their own seagull detective and together they solve crimes by unravelling the clues that they gathered.
The 5-page PDF contains 2 pages of core rules (fit on a single sheet of paper when printed on both sides) and 3 pages of supplement. For 2-4 players plus an optional GM. Can be played as a one-shot or a mini-campaign.
The game mechanic draws inspirations from D. Vincent Baker and Meguey Baker's Apocalypse World and Sasha Reneau's Spindlewheel.
