“The world is dark, and light is precious.

Come closer, dear reader.

You must trust me.

I am telling you a story.”

Dying of the Light is a gm-less game for 1-4 players, played over the course of 2-3 hours. Players collectively assume the role of a single city on a single night, they will pull cards which provide question prompts describing the less than beautiful parts of the night. 

Throughout the night, Players will earn tokens that can be spent to facilitate a moment of beauty and intimacy in the middle of this dark and dangerous night. Will you be able to light up the night before morning comes?

Dying of the Light is a token game built on the Caltrop Core SRD, designed by Lex Titanomachy, for the second Caltrop Core game jam.
