Blades in the Dark is a tabletop role-playing game about a crew of daring scoundrels seeking their fortunes on the haunted streets of an industrial-fantasy city. There are heists, chases, occult mysteries, dangerous bargains, bloody skirmishes, and, above all, riches to be had — if you’re bold enough to seize them. You and your fledgling crew must thrive amidst the threats of rival gangs, powerful noble families, vengeful ghosts, the Bluecoats of the city watch, and the siren song of your scoundrel’s own vices. Will you rise to power in the criminal underworld? What are you willing to do to get to the top? Create your scoundrel from the character archetypes of the Cutter, the Hound, the Leech, the Lurk, the Slide, the Spider, or the Whisper; form your crew, built from types like Assassins, Bravos, a Cult, Hawkers, Shadows, or Smugglers; and get started immediately on a daring, intrigue-filled sandbox game, using the robust core mechanic which puts the fiction first—the strength of a character’s position (desperate, risky, or controlled) matters just as much as the character’s ability scores—and other innovative tools to cut through the usual slog of planning at the game table. (Also available are rules for alchemical experiments, gadget tinkering, and weird occult powers.) This game is all about choosing on the fly which makes the risk and adventure more real. There is less prep and more of a focus on making fast decisions with plenty of very cool character "classes" to take on. The setting gives plenty of room for exploration and gives players the opportunity to dabble in all types of adventures. It's also all about teamwork, with plenty of mechanics rewarding and encouraging players to work as a unit.
