The battle for survival has begun

Hallowtide is a black powder eldritch fantasy miniature skirmish game set in a world on the brink. 45 years ago, during the height of an industrial revolution, the dead returned to Voyrune in an event known as the Rising and devoured the old world. Many of the wandering dead have since returned to their graves, and yet the fractured remnants of humanity continue to wage a constant battle for survival against horrors spawned from the fringes of nightmare.

Players control a crew of hunters who have sworn to eradicate the forces of darkness—be it to make the world a safer place or merely to line their pockets with glittering silver. This is not a task for the faint of heart: enemies are deadly, time is limited, and mounting stress can cause even the bravest hunter to lose their reason.

This is not a game of brave heroes and storybook adventure; it is a battle fought by desperate survivors attempting to make the best of an increasingly grim future.

What is Hallowtide?

Check out worldofhallowtide.com for more info

Hallowtide uses card-driven activations and pools of D4–D12 dice to resolve actions, with creatures following their own behavior rules. Hunters can take Stress to improve rolls or gain extra actions, but pushing too far risks panic.

Play standalone encounters or link games through a Chronicle, exploring an overland map and developing your hunters as they gain experience, lasting wounds, and mental scars. Play solo, share a crew with friends, or lead separate crews.

What is a Backroom Launch?

What Is a Backroom Event?
Black Site Backroom events are a launch event for some of our new games. The main goal of a backroom is to build a solid foundation of sales and allow the community to push the product into an even greater state.  

When will this ship?
We are aiming to deliver the PDF before the end of the year and ship preorders in early Q1 2027

Will I be charged immediately?
Yep! This is a regular purchase

Refunds
We are generally more than happy to offer refunds after the backroom event closes. But, once products are in production and things are getting close to shipping we may choose, at our discretion, to deny refund requests.
