An interesting looking one-shot RPG is out at Exalted Funeral. In The Last Hand: A Horror Roleplaying Game, players are hunted by an unknown creature which the players slowly learn more about during its pursuit. The 28 page, saddle-stitched zine (with PDF) is available for an MSRP of $12.00.
About the game:
The Last Hand: A Horror Role Playing Game is a standalone, GM-less, no-prep RPG for 2 to 6 players intended for a single session of play.
Taking on the role of struggling survivors, you must work together to escape an unknown horror that slowly reveals Its true nature as It pursues you, while hedging your bets to be the one to make it out alive during the Last Hand.
Emulating aspects of Texas Hold ‘Em, you will take turns as the Dealer leading scenes, deciding how the cards affect the story, and adding details to the creature to realize what has been released upon the world.
The game facilitates the combination of warranted distrust and obligatory cooperation that is a staple of the horror genre. You can survive, but you must work together and there will likely be casualties.
It is out there, and It will stalk you relentlessly. Don’t be one that gets left to die.
