Mystery Snacks has two big parts that both throw back to mystery shows and books that I loved as a kid:
The first is a mystery game system based on Breathless (this is part of the Breathless Jam by Fari RPG) so you have a quick and easy system to play any kind of mystery you can come up with! The system was modified from a survival horror mechanic to a kid-friendly mystery-solving mechanic where you seek out clues, run around to solve problems, and share a mystery snack to bolster your courage when needed.
The second part is a few mysteries for you to play out (on this system or any other), complete with plot, NPC's, clues, challenges, and a big reveal at the end! Making up mysteries on your own can be a bit difficult, so this gives you some stories to play or some inspiration to make your own for any homebrew games you want to run. The pre-made mysteries include:
- Per Diem at the Museum
- Ostriches on the Loose!
- Dude, Where's My Broom?
You get everything as one combo with Mystery Snacks - check it out, and have fun solving some mysteries together!
