House of Zeus Demo

The king of the gods is dead and the whole family tree found together to his last will reading. And to weed out the murderer. Since you don’t know who you really are and what your standing is in the Olympic Pantheon, the true killer will frame you for the crime. So find out who you really are and collect evidence! House of Zeus is a gothic solo-journaling rpg deeply inspired by the convoluted family ties of Hades and draws inspiration design wise from Princess with a cursed Sword by Anna Anthropy . You are no one - until you receive a mysterious invitations to the testament hearing of  greek godfather Zeus. Someone killed him and guided by your curiosity you join this dire assembly - hoping to find out who you truly are and who your parent is. A mysterious co-conspirator lends their powers - use them to escape the raging tribunal - which seemed to be more interested to make you the culprit of the death, than finding out the truth. House of Zeus uses a simple deck of playing cards and you may need to print out at least the playmat. You may also need a device of your choice to record the story. Be it physical, digital or human driven. This game was playtested by myself and friends, if the rules are missing or unclear, please feel free to reach out to me in the comments! To be on the safe side, I give kudos to Anna Anthropy's Princess with a cursed sword SRD which helped me greatly to jot down my swirling thoughts - way to eager and impatient to be put in a product. (Although by now I have already forgotten the lessons one could learn from such great source of wisdom. I recommend you read it too! -> https://w.itch.io/princess-sword-srd )
