Our take on Evening Starter
The story gives the dungeon-crawler format a practical financial motive: Ren takes on a dangerous cult investigation to repay a large debt. That replaces the more familiar focus on exploration for treasure or heroic destiny with a paid supernatural job.
What is Evening Starter?
Evening Starter is a dungeon-crawling role-playing game about Ren Nosogi, a freelance Sweeper who handles supernatural incidents.
After investigating disappearances, Ren becomes burdened with a large debt and accepts a dangerous contract to dismantle an evil cult because the payment is substantial. The game uses turn-based combat within a classic dungeon-crawler structure. Players can alter equipment, develop character levels, and assemble a party with multiple members. The story follows Ren’s attempt to resolve the cult investigation while dealing with the financial consequences of the earlier incident.
