You, Beyond the Pale

You, Beyond the Pale By S. Kaiya J.

You are monstrous and you are alone. There are mortals who share this world with you, but you are alone. They are different from you, some fear you, some worship you. Some live upon your territory, some seek interaction, but you will always be alone.

You, Beyond the Pale is a game about taking on the roll of an inhuman monster living near the mortals. You start the game by making your creature and placing both of the jokers into strategic spots in the deck.

Each day you draw two cards to represent a mortal who wanders into your territory. You think roll 2d20 to see how that interaction goes.

During the First Act, sometimes you have a good interaction, observing and learning about them, but sometimes things go wrong and everyone gets scared. Sometimes you can even gain or give a treasure to the humans.

When you draw the first joker a mortal friend appears, and becomes a reoccurring character for you to interact with. During the Second Act every time you draw a card with the same value as your friend card you get to see them again and further your friendship. You learn more about the mortals and how to become acceptable to them.

The final act occurs when you draw the second joker and something special happens and you make one last entry.

I played as a large polar-bear type creature who kinda wanted to be left alone, but also enjoyed all the trinkets that the mortals made of them. You can find my playthrough HERE
