GAME OVERVIEW

[ the audience (1991), by james hoff ]

What is Grief Street? It lies between the waking and dreaming world, between reality and fiction. It encompasses the fears and hopes of humanity. It can be anytime, anyplace. It ebbs and flows with the tides of chaos. Step carefully when you find yourself here, for before you lies infinite choice and endless possibilities.

You cannot find Grief Street on any map, but it can find you–for no matter where humankind goes, grief follows.

Grief Street is a collection of one-shot, short-run games, divided into “episodes”—think of anthology shows like “The Twilight Zone”, except RP. One episode may have characters solving a traditional murder mystery. Another may have the characters attempting to escape a time loop. Yet another might be your standard murdergame, with a twist. What will you find on Grief Street?

A list of 'episodes' can be found below.
