The Magnus Archives Roleplaying Game

The game is set in the eerie world of the podcast, where players take on the roles of investigators at a "Magnus Institute," cataloging and researching supernatural statements. The game's narrative is designed to have episodic adventures that build an engrossing cosmic horror campaign. As characters delve deeper into the mysteries, they may be affected by the dark forces they are investigating, gaining supernatural abilities or suffering from psychological stress.
