There is a place outside of normal existence called the Silhouette Rouge, a place where the conscious and subconscious merge, where the real and unreal are one in the same. The Sarcophagi, creatures lacking memory and identity, are imprisoned within this place. They walk the Silhouette Rouge hoping to divine its secrets for only revelation and enlightenment can grant them release.
Noumenon is a role-playing game of mystery and abstraction. Players assume the roles of the Sarcophagi, strange insect-like creatures trapped within the Silhouette Rouge. During their adventures, players will encounter bizarre entities and explore strange locations. The Silhouette Rouge, Noumenon’s setting, is detailed enough to spark the imagination yet open enough to allow customization. In Noumenon, player cooperation is key. Noumenon uses a domino-based task resolution system that enables players to build upon each other’s successes.
Transcendence or damnation? The Silhouette Rouge beckons.

| 7 / 10 | NathanHill | Hey, I wrote a couple of rooms for this book. I like it. This game is built around a strange premise where the characters are insect-like creatures exploring a strange netherworld. Each room is different and unique. Some are more poetic in nature, while others layout the challenges adventurers will discover. This is a game about life, death, exploration, mystery, and pain. It's a secret to be unlocked. Certainly not for everyone, but definitely worth a look if you are into roleplaying games that try to do something different. |
