The beta test for my 2-player Warlock/Patron TTRPG is up! You can find it here!

52SYS was designed to explore ideas of toxic relationships and codependence through the frame of warlocks as we often see them portrayed. D&D has a great, super underutilised framework for relationships between warlocks and patrons. I decided to take those vibes and put my own spin on them -- alongside a system that's pretty easy to learn.

All you need to play is a d8, a stack of playing cards, and a handful of tokens. Sit down with a trusted partner and draw cards to tell the story of a fraught relationship between a desperate warlock and a power-hungry patron.

This beta test version is essentially the full game, but with the huge caveat that it's all still subject to change as more people play it and tell me what does/doesn't work!

I'm really excited to share this with everyone. I'd be delighted if you'd let me know what you think! Again, you can find the game here!
