The Committee for the Exploration of Mysteries, Jubilee Edition

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The storytelling game of exploration and adventure returns in an updated and revised Jubilee Edition. Thoroughly rewritten to improve clarity, streamline the mechanics, and provide additional play advice, the game is better than ever!

This Meeting of the Committee is Called to Order . . .

You braved crocodiles, Nazis, necromancy, and devolved ape men to find the mythical city and the secrets it holds. You tested your skills and resolve to their limits, driven by a secret desire that motivates you to greater deeds just as it blinds you to possible pitfalls.

Now you have returned from your expedition and must report to your peers on your daring exploits, proving to the hardened adventurers, geniuses, and polymaths gathered before you that you are worthy of their respect in your every endeavor. You've gone into danger and survived driven by your desire -- now is the time to bring it to fruition.

The Committee for the Exploration of Mysteries is a storytelling game inspired by the pulps and tales of Victorian adventure. Playable in a single evening or over multiple sessions, it allows you and your friends to tell tales of harrowing danger, daring deeds, and furious action with freeform narration and pulse-pounding timed conflict resolution. No pre-game preparation is required, so grab your hat, your whip, and your .45 and get going!

 

 

"It's like Agon meets The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen, on the clock!" - Fred Hicks, author of Don't Rest Your Head and co-author of Spirit of the Century

"The Committee for the Exploration of Mysteries provides a fresh and interesting new take on pulp roleplaying. . . . This game combines some of the best ideas other small press games have put forward and mixes them together to create a really fun looking game." - Christopher W. Richeson, RPG.Net Review

"It takes a lot of things I enjoy about games and storytelling and spins them in an interesting, different direction. . . . It really captured my fancy." - Paul Tevis, Have Games, Will Travel (Naming The Committee an Honorable Mention for Top New RPG of 2007)

I played this with Eric when he was designing it, and I've always been a big fan. Our gaming group started talking about this game recently, and I can't wait to play it again. So fun!

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.
