Rest in Pieces

Cheap rent. Must be open to sharing…everything. Killer personality a must! 

Fill the shoes of a fed-up deadbeat roommate that happens to share a cramped studio apartment with none other than the Grim Reaper! What can go wrong, does go wrong in this ridiculous game about bad days and difficult roommates.

Rest in Pieces is a dark comedy tabletop roleplaying game inspired by the misadventures, cartoon logic, and over-the-top characters of slacker sitcoms like The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, The Regular Show, Rick & Morty, and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Plays with a Two-Color Jenga-ish Block Tower and a unique deck of 108 cards that teach the rules, describe characters, and create overarching problems. With 14 unique problem scenarios to rile up your roommates, you’ll be ready to play in minutes!

3-6 Players (With GM), 1 Hour, Mature Themes for Immature Play
*Contains suggestive themes, crude humor, and strong language.

Reviews

If Fiasco and Dread had a love child, it would be Rest in Pieces!
- GM Fox, Devil's Luck Gaming

"Beyond its clever comedic concept, RiP represents a mechanical step forward in the golden age of gaming."
- Ben Riggs, Author of the ENnie Nominated Encounter Theory & Host of the ENnie Nominated Plot Points Podcast

"The character creation in Rest in Pieces is deceptively simple! You can create a very unique person just by drawing a handful of cards and be ready in minutes, or pour through the multitude of options. It's remarkable what a dead-end job, a deadly weapon and an odd hobby can say about a person!"
-Ryan Boelter, Host of the Character Creation Cast

"Learning about Rest in Pieces makes me want to change The Redacted Files tagline to "We solve problems with lots of collateral damage" as well. This game fits in perfectly with everything we enjoy about RPGs"
- Megan Tolentino, Host of the Redacted Files
