Darkness is coming to campus. Follow along to get the expansions and exclusive add-on content in print for the first time.


Tangled Blessings is a solo journaling or two-player RPG inspired by dark academia media, ghost stories, and graduate school. The core mechanics are based on the ENnie-nominated Anamnesis game by Samantha Leigh. The core Tangled Blessings book successfully crowdfunded last year and has been the subject of several amazing actual plays.

Featuring a wizarding college, wandering specters, assigned houses, curses, devils’ bargains and more supernatural flavor, Tangled Blessings blends horror and the fantastical to help players craft a story that spans their time at the Academy — culminating in one final showdown against their rival. 

The game only requires a deck of tarot cards and a way to record the story.
