You awake to the sound of a blaring emergency alarm in a patient roomof what seems to be an abandoned medical facility. You wonder how you got here, slept through all this noise, and what happened to everybody as you come to. Disoriented, you look down; you are wearing nothing but a hospital gown.
IT LURKS INSIDE is a solo mapping Tabletop Role-Playing Game by Alexei Vella, loosely based on games inspired by Dark Fort by Johan Nohr and Pelle Nilsson of MÖRK BORG fame, but instead of exploring a dungeon, you find yourself in a strange abandoned medical facility full of entities.
Using dice, pencils, paper, and this book, map out the facility, combat these entities, and find a means of escape.
