Othercide is a horror-tinged tactical RPG from Focus Home

I don’t know what I’m even looking at here, but it’s cool I can’t say I’ve ever seen a tactical role-playing game that looks likeOthercide. It’s committing hard to its black, white, and red aesthetic, and the subject matter – a war between Daughters, the “echoes of the greatest warrior to ever live,” and Others, “dread creatures pulled from the worst of humanity’s crimes” – is hard to pin down.

Free is good Balan Wonderworldis out, and the reception has been…interesting, to say the least.
