The TTRPG book 5 Acts: The King in Yellow by Dr. Jason Bowers and Nilhemoth Games
Next is 5 Acts: The King in Yellow by Dr. Jason Bowers (@phdnd.bsky.social) and @nilhemothgames.bsky.social. I haven't run this one yet either, but I REALLY want to. I love the vibes and the art, and the idea of the PCs being unreliable narrators themselves is interesting!

Just finished this for the first time, and it's absolutely amazing stuff.
Does "Phantom of Truth" refer to a spooky monster, like "Phantom of the Opera?" Or is the phrase more similar to "the myth of the given" and "the illusion of depth?"
