Unplaytested Presents is live on Backerkit with No Mercy For Monsters, a Wretched & Alone game of familial oaths, dark obsessions, and the toxic bond shared between mortal rivals.

No Mercy For Monsters is a solo GM-less journaling game about revenge, obsession, and the toxic co-dependency shared between rivals. It is a game where you will struggle under the weight of legacy, expectation, guilt, and past failures.

You take on the role of a woodsman, one who has failed the people depending on you and can only see the possibility of your absolution in the death of The Beast—an enemy that your existence has become defined by.

You live in a liminal space you call The Hunt, where only you and The Beast reside. You have seen and done terrible things to find them. Would gladly do more to draw them close enough to touch. You know that you will most likely fail, that you’ll be killed or corrupted before your vengeance can be secured.

This only ends with The Beast’s death or yours. You do not know which you fear more.
