Have you played Cold City ?

By Malcolm Craig

In the divided city of post-World War II Berlin, terrors hide in the darkness. The legacies of war, suffering, and fringe science lurk beneath the surface, feared and desired by former allies and defeated enemies. Those that seek out these horrors are riven by suspicion, mistrust and political ambition. The four occupying powers of Britain, France, the USA and the USSR all have their own agendas. In Cold City, characters are defined not just by who they are and what they are like, but by the views of the other characters and the trust that they have in them.

The game also grapples with the legacies of twisted sciences, occult experiments, and the reality-fracturing horror of war. Characters are thrust into secret worlds, taking on the roles of those whose mission it is to protect others from monstrous horrors.

When conflicts arise in the game, players create pools of ten-sided dice from attributes, traits, tools, hidden agendas, and trust/relationships.

In Cold City the trust between characters is a key mechanical component, reflecting the wider, real-world nature of the Cold War era. No one knows on whom they can truly rely, or what their hidden agendas might be. You're working together for now, but when push comes to shove, who can you trust?
