Having just finished a campaign of this (14 sessions) I got a chance to talk about it Around the Hearth:

Already looking forward to a parallel sequel with the expansion book!

Drifting the setting a little to the Pacific Northwest at the end of the 19th century to fit it into our Silent Falls continuity over on the Open Hearth - just the first session but already have a lot of fun!

Just started a run of this over on Open Hearth, a classic pairing of the Occultist/Profiler - aiming to just do the Widening Gyre for now...having fun with the darkness and seeing who these characters are

Almost home in this playthrough! Here's our fourth session, seriously wondering if we will make it next week...

This game will be part of a charity bundle soon (from the 30th November) so I'll encourage you to pick it up then - otherwise I'll likely add some community copies afterwards.

Finally got this to the table, and we're enjoying ourselves!

Just started a campaign over with the Open Hearth, and loving it so far! 

Just played last night, and even though we had a few players drop out and were left with only two of us - still well worth it and a great session!

Would really like to try it out with a larger group as we thought a bit more free-wheeling roleplaying would have ensued with more of us! 

Just played this last night with the Open Hearth and we had a great time - because we've been in a Star Trek campaign for a while, we decided to make it a Federation/Borg story! 

Just finished playing this with the Open Hearth, gut-wrenching fun (even with a gloss of urban fantasy to take the edge off)

As I observed, any game with a voice mail message from your past selves is always going to hit hard. 

Just played this last night with the Open Hearth and had a blast - the second Goncharov game I've played and really delivered on those tropes, motifs and feels!

Just played this in our Silent Falls setting, as a 'player-missing' filler in a campaign of Two Summers. As promised, great fare for a relatively low-stakes bottle episode.

We had a blast! Thanks

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave your review (even/especially your very fair reservations)!

Have just concluded/paused our first Two Summers campaign (we didn't quite wrap it up in 7 sessions, so we were happy to organise another few sessions in September).

Just finished a short (4-session) run of this in our Silent Falls continuity and we had an amazing time. Creepy as hell and definitely hitting that True Detective but with Vampires note.

Here's the first video (you'll find the others there too)

Played this over two sessions last month and we really loved it - messy melancholy feelings abounded!

Mashed the two sessions into a single video

Got the game to the table this morning, and loved it. Even though we had some people who'd never seen the Jason Bourne movies (*gasp*), we got the measure of the game very quickly. Wasn't sure, based on reading it, how the rolls & token economy would play out - but very happy with it!

Here's the recording of our playthrough:

Thanks for running this for us at Dreamation - I was in RiseNY last week and was even more interested in the fashion section of that exhibit than I might have been based on our experience.

just wrapped up a series of the Urban Fantasy playset and I was incredibly impressed at how the slow-burn play had me so invested in the characters, especially with their unfolding development.

Here’s the first of our three sessions

Happy we got to play this earlier this week - a great experience where we really ‘attacked’ the characters’ fears!

just played this game on Friday night as the Solstice slipped in.

As expected, a great experience and one we wished to build on, perhaps delving into the history of the town, or maybe using it as a jumping off point for another set of escapades…

Finally got this to the table earlier this week and we had a blast with a one-shot jewel heist!

Amazing!
Thanks for sharing - so pleased to hear about your exploits and that you all had fun

Just started running this hunt as part of an ongoing campaign, and I'm really enjoying the mix of imagery (buried deep in my ex-Catholic psyche!)

Just had a fantastic game - fitting in seamlessly with our Silent Falls continuity and gave us a chance to breathe life into some of our existing NPCs. Of course, given the tone of our previous games, we dialled the spookiness and horror up a few notches.

Excited to have started our journey!

Just our first session so far, so have yet to sink our teeth into the world properly but psyched to see where we end up and how we get there

just played this (with a little impromptu revision to set in Star Wars) and we had a great time. Only got through half of the 16 turns in our session but still had a satisfying arc for our group of friends!

Great to hear! Congrats!

Am starting a campaign of this in a few weeks and I cannot wait

Finally got this to the table, a great first session spent on setup! Really looking forward to next week.

Happy to say I've finally gotten this game to the table! Just for a two-shot, but loving to hate our characters so far - I wonder if any can start on a path to redemption before we wrap...

Thanks for writing this game!

Just started running this hunt in a new campaign, and loving it so far (those creepy analog horror vibes!)

Just played a two-shot of this with the Open Hearth gaming community (where we played young cadets of the King's Musketeers!) - definitely recommended, though I think it need even more sessions than this to fully shine

Played this the other night, and we had a blast following the glam metal band 'Morningstar' as they prepare for their final gig before the Devil claims their souls!
We had intended to do this over two sessions, but had to cancel one - so we didn't get the chance to do the 'Session Zero' experience or to push the mechanics to their fullest - but a great game was had nonetheless.
Thanks!

just wrapped a five-part series and we had an amazing time! Thanks for much for this game

Here’s the first session

Just played this last night, and what a weird and wonderous magical journey we had!

played this again last week, and once again had a (tragically) good time!

We just wrapped up a group play of this (using video journalling instead) Here's our playlist
Great game! Thanks

I played this a few weeks ago and thought I'd share the recording - we had a great time too! Highly recommended

Just played this last night - we had great fun!
(I love that sequel stinger!)

played this last night and we had an amazing time
