Yep great fun, ha! Send me a message via https://www.hausofvalley.com/contact and I can help you out.

Wow, that's bizarre. Thank you for pointing it out. From doing a bit of reading it seems that Chrome (which I think you're using) is "not compliant with the PDF standards for displaying PDFs". I'm able to replicate the same problem when I try to view it using Chrome and so far I haven't been able to export the PDF in a way to get it to work as expected.

For the time being do you have a different application you can use to view the PDF?

This is amazing, thank you for letting me know!

That’s awesome, thank you for sharing with me! Really glad you enjoy it.

A-ha! I had not clocked that. Certainly will be a lot easier for some folks to calculate. Thank you for your comment.

This has such a badass vibe about. Awesome style!

Thank you!

Thank you!

That's now available. All the translated versions have their own ZIP folder containing a coloured and black and white version.

Hey! Imagine the text like a cut scene in a video game. When it ends, you’re in control. The most obvious starting point is making a choice between the two options presented: go out of the aperture in the wall and risk the slope, or go down into the pit in the centre of the room.

Yes indeed, I'll make black and white versions of all the translations shortly. Cheers!

Thank you!

Awesome, glad you like it.

thank you, books

No, thank you!

Yes! Looking forward to getting stuck into this.

I really enjoyed your playthrough. I think it’s the first one I’ve read that mentions getting to the East Caisson. I love the ‘alien’ you introduced.

Amazing, thank you for your comments. I’m looking forward to reading your playthrough, I love seeing people’s different experiences.

Godspeed!

As a  Twin Peaks fan, I love this comparison!

There are a few different ways to answer this!

As an oracle-making procedure: you could collaboratively work through the process of building the oracle

Using the oracle you’ve made: you could incorporate this into a group game as something that inspires the GM, or as an in-universe thing.

As a lightweight folk-horror game: I don’t see why an experienced GM couldn’t take the details along with an oracle they’ve prepared and run players through an adventure. There are simple mechanics for resolving action but they could also choose to use the mechanics from another game and treat this text as an adventure module.

I’d be interested to hear about experiences of any of the above!

Thank you very much!

No problem - there’s a contact form on my site: https://www.hausofvalley.com/contact. Drop me a line there and I’ll sort out your download key.

This is a terrifying pdf.

After all, what is roleplaying if not a form of collective dreaming?

This is fascinating stuff. Since I first read about the phenomenon, the “This Man” of real life has always stuck with me. This Game is a very neat exploration of that uncanny, liminal sensation using tarot. But what really sets it apart is the use of music to explore those hard to reach emotional places.

I just left a comment on the video, but thank you so much for making this. It's a wonderful review and overview, and it's really validating hearing how the module seems to have resonated with you. It's a very diligent commentary and I'm impressed at your ability to improvise on the spot!

Hello! Thanks for your comment and your interest in Thousand Empty Light. Great to hear you're going to feature the module - looking forward to it. To answer your questions:

1. [-] means roll with disadvantage, [+] means roll with advantage. This is also how the core Mothership rules styles it in its tables.

2. It should be fine to play the soundtrack underneath speech in your video. I agree, I think the music is excellent and I'd love more people to hear it.

Feel free to post the link to your video here when it's live.

Thanks again!

❤️

Awesome! Congratulations! I don’t think many people have cracked all three.

Thank you!

Amazing review, thanks for sharing!

Thanks for your comment! Yes, I’m familiar with those (and I love my GYCPIYHBY book!), but for whatever reason they don’t completely click with me.

Love the simplicity of this. It’s really a virtue when the game is played without any materials. I’ll give it a go tonight.

Awesome, thanks for letting me know. LMNL reminds me a bit of BABS. Interesting stuff!

If you drop me a line here we can discuss over email https://www.hausofvalley.com/contact. Cheers!

…and yes!

Yes!

Cool setting and very surreal prose!

This is a killer line: “Be heedless of the mysteries of the world, and you shall have as your shadow the wrath of one”. I’m going to be thinking about that.

Awesome, that was quick! Looking forward to checking it out.

Cheers!
