The Gloaming Diaries

A unique setting for tabletops and larps that offers a lot that other "Fae in modern day earth" systems don't. At the same time, things are flexible enough in their setup that it is easily adaptable for how you want to run it.  That you bring your own favorite mythological and folklore-based creatures and legends to it is definitely a strength of the system that you will rarely find elsewhere. I've gotten a lot of use out of it, as both someone who runs it and plays it.

One of my favorite games of all time, been playing since it came out and every new expansion adds depth to the content in a very unique way. For anyone who is a fan of mythology and folklore, regardless of region, I can't recommend TGD enough.  If you're a fan of the Fae you'll instantly fall in love.

I love this game's attention to a consistent theme. A lot of the worldbuilding is useful immediately with plenty of room to make up your own specifics and build off the basics. The abilities are also all flavorful and well fit to fairytales.

super fun game with a lot of versatility to it ,  You can make it your own or go with the base concept and get creative from there.

The lore, system and setting is fantastic! I think the concept of a human weaving their soul with a fae is interesting and unique relative to other urban fantasy RPGs. Moreover, the use of Tarot cards for skill checks instead of dice is incredibly novel and makes this RPG stand out even more!

Much fun, great lore, would play for another couple years.

Thematics creating mechanics is great and this RPG does that fantastic as well as a good modern fantasy to play with pals

For anyone like me who wishes they were secretly a dragon, this is a great game to live out that fantasy

Easily flexible enough to allow for just about any myth or folklore out there- gods, demons, urban legends, whatever. 'Tis quite snazzy.

Lightweight combat system and RP-focused gameplay makes this honestly my favorite tabletop system to run, as it's far less math focused so you can get right into the fun parts, like hanging out at your local bistro, or fighting entities from beyond the known universe! The only real limits are what you can imagine and what your storyteller will tolerate from you ;)

This game is such a fantastic concept and so well executed. I love the use of Tarot cards instead of dice, and how the suits play into combat is a neat touch. The flexibility of character creation is amazing, though a supplement with some example motifs might not go amiss, for those new to the system.

This is a fantastic game for small-town gothic fantasy. I love the Connections that tie you to other people, and the way the simple system is written keeps it out of the way of the roleplay, which is especially great in larger games like LARPs.

The Gloaming Diaries is a game that has a beautiful setting, and amazing flexibility for character development. The rules are clear and precise, but easy to read and learn. The character creation is also very easy, and mostly limited only to the imagination of the player. Overall, it leads to a really fun game that is easy to learn, even for someone who might be new to LARP.
