I'll recycle a discussion from the Francophone [email protected] link but obviously the answer were more focused on video game.

We're on a RPG community, so I expect to hear more about RPG and LARP, let's talk about made you feel "bleed"

So to give my answers from the other thread.

The space between us this has been published during covid as a "larp through webcam" and it was super intense emotionally speaking, I am not going to give any spoiler, but the fact that it started slowly with workshop, and not much happening really helped when the tension started to rise, and the ending was just Waw, don't forget some tissues, because ninja will be cutting onion

In the same category, with a lot of bleed, the famous Alice is missing which is somehow a hybrid betqween boargaming and TTRPG. The theme isn't easy (A kid has gone missing), but it's the theme which trigger a lot of bleed, add the playlist which will put me back in the ambiance if I listen to it again. and again, expect some Ninja to cut onions in the background

I don't think that an english translation is available but anyway, let me say a couple of word about Shadow island a parlour larp in a lovecratian ambiance, about a disfunctional family making a yearly silent dinner, to commemorate the death of "patriarch". Expect long character sheet (mine was around 40 pages, only background as there is almost no rules), an afternoon of workshop before the game starts, and the whole "silent dinner" concept creates a feeling of weirdness long before the "supernatural" kicks in. Do not read it if you don't intend to play it and if it's run near you, just join.
