Scenario Teaser
1898, New York City. Workers take to the streets to fight for their rights. Gangs vie for territory while corruption runs rampant among police and politicians. Newspapers indulge in yellow journalism as the Spanish-American War rages on in the Caribbean. Blair Sheridan, owner of Elmwood Cotton Mill, holds a public meeting to ease concerns after part of the Mill collapsed unexpectedly, nearly shutting down business. Some come to take advantage of the tragedy. Some to fix past mistakes or bring the truth to light. Others just want a decent job. Whatever happened, it’s not over yet.
Accommodates 8-16 players and 1 NPC GM, runs 2 hours, suggested ages 18+


What is Espionage Party?

In Espionage Party, a live action role-playing game, players gather in one place to take on unique roles in a scenario brimming with intrigue and mystery. Talk to other players and figure out who your friends and enemies are. Keep your secrets to yourself or confide in an ally to gain their trust. Make and execute plans to complete your secret objectives but be prepared for the other players to complicate things. Even if you die, you just might keep on playing as a new character. Only the starting conditions are set in stone. What happens next and how it all turns out is entirely up to you.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
