Songbirds 3e

Songbirds is an adventure game inspired by OSR and Storygame traditions that focuses on body horror and haunted stuff. You are the canary (adventurer) in the coal mine (dungeon). You go where others won't trying to help spirits find rest, since the god of death is slacking. To play, all you'll need is a d20 and d10, the book has the rest.
