Entry into EndMaster's 2024 Prompt Contest! 

The Faceless Knights uphold divine law, crushing mutation and degeneracy whenever they encounter it. When the young lord of a recently-conquered territory calls for a true servant of God, you must answer. 

This game has a sequel.

A short, silly, high-octane ride through a cyberpunk future where your bullets are few, your friends are fewer, and the long tentacles of the law are slithering up your pant legs. 

I am aware that technically, writing a sentence in all capital letters is gramatically incorrect. I did this on purpose, several times, for stylistic effect. If you point this out in the reviews, a team of hit-apes will kick in your door.

This is a sequel to A Prayer for Destruction. It is highly recommended that you read that work before beginning this one.

The North, that frozen-over land of fanatics and heathens, has suffered a great and mysterious calamity. The Sultan bids you raise your banners and ride in his name to investigate.

"Death is struck and nature quaking;
All creation is awaking,
To its Judge an answer making.
Lo, the book, exactly worded,
Wherein all hath been recorded;
Thence shall judgment be awarded.
When the Judge His seat attaineth,
And each hidden deed arraigneth,
Nothing unavenged remaineth."

-- Dies Irae

Ultimately, the fate of life is to destroy itself.

this is so fucking stupid

This isn't the appropriate forum to be posting about individual games. 

I mean, the Alpha zombie uses improvised weapons, has his flock set up rudimentary ambushes, posts deer heads on his territory, and shows a strange kind of zombie concern when he finds a dead pregnant zombie. Presumably this mutated form is capable of like, ripping fur off animals as blankets, or leading them to milder areas during winter. 

One thing I liked that many seem to overlook is that Jimmy is clearly based on and maybe even self-consciously cosplaying as MEGA PEDO Jimmy Saville -- he's got long blond hair and a track suit on.

Anyway, I super dug this one. Reminded me of that one arc of Crossed where it's set a century into the future and the Crossed have set up a weird rudimentary society

Anyway, I am also indigenous - I am a thirty-seven year old Israeli man named Elan Bar-Bitshurat, currently stationed in Qiryat Shemona :-) 

I love electronic music and DnD 

People in ye olde times were unbelievably unsentimental about their animals. You can kind of see a remnant of that in Amish / trad Mennonite communities, or even in Mongolia where they still eat a ton of horse meat and don't name their rides. It's like, the more key a resource a horse is, the less precious you'll be about it. 

I think Snow and The Other World have kind of a fraught history and it might be best to leave them in the past. 

I think 3J had a bunch of really well-liked fantasy games that have gone the way of the dodo? 

Hahaha that's so sick, I never expected to be able to actually view those games.

Man real life is going to be a shock to you 

Hello friends, 

This time, we’re treated to some nice ultraviolence and a reversal of fortunes. Now, the Greeks are on the backfoot, fighting against their own walls. The Trojans, on the other hand, are enjoying some freedom and mobility; the dynamics of the siege have been reversed. The book ends with the Greeks seemingly about to be butchered and their ships set aflame. Fortunately, we have quite a bit left to get through, so that won’t happen. 

Despite Diomedes’ chastising him, Odysseus flees the battle.Think back to his exchange with Agamemnon in Book 4 – what judgements can you make about Odysseus’ character? 

Zeus interferes directly despite prohibiting the Olympians to interfere. What other characters share this unenviable trait of hypocrisy? 

Poseidon is flatly unwilling to defy thundering Zeus, but his wife Hera is willing to give Agamemnon a helpful urge that ends up saving the Greeks – despite the fact that both her and Athena are forced to relent from their plans to intervene more directly. What does that say about the Olympians? Does Zeus keep his house in order? 

Zeus, essentially, outlines the rest of the plot. What purpose in the narrative might that serve? 

Honestly I'm just glad this one isn't Ryder
