Not every Stop on the Road is a welcome one. THE HIDDEN: AMERICA doesn't look away from the parts of 1930s America that were already hard before the folklore showed up.

@blackorchardgames.comTHE HIDDEN was never only the rulebook. Routes, music, history — and now, a radio play: The Old Mother.
@roninmercllc.bsky.socialDeep in the Alaskan wilderness, a wrong has been committed.
After a severely injured mother loses her children to arrogant hunters, she slowly goes crazy and fixes her sites on revenge.
But what’s a little murderous rampage when you have nothing left to lose?

@theghostmonk.bsky.socialI watched 'Starve Acre' (2023) with Matt Smith on BBC iPlayer last night. A bit of a slow burn but nicely controlled and what goes on in a cardboard box is especially eerie and original. I quite liked the fact that it was set in a dingy, brown and beige 1970s, too.

@blackorchardgames.comLabor built the roads THE HIDDEN: AMERICA travels. The game doesn't forget who laid the track before the story arrived.
@blackorchardgames.comA real, unaltered period photograph. Seven of their blood, summoned before sundown, for a reason nobody explains.
@thecairnshoretides.bsky.socialWhen I wrote The Tidewarden, I kept coming back to the bond between brothers. The old jokes. The things you remember differently. Knowing exactly how to annoy someone, and how to reach them when nobody else can.
