While the two anachronistic antagonists vie to uncover each other, the rest of the diners will have distinct “goals and shenanigans to get up to”, muddying the waters and having fun in the meantime. If they're wrong, the Wizard reveals themself and makes a demand of the Knight.” If they're right, yay! They get to ask a favor of the wizard. “The Knight, after some time, takes a guess at who the wizard is. “There isn't really like a ‘you won, the game is over’ state,” they said. As for winning, Holmes told Dicebreaker via Twitter that went a different route. The three roles will have distinct abilities and limitations during the game, structuring interactions and giving both the Knight and Wizard tools for concealing their true identities for as long as possible. The zine will include a template server, while the designers encourage groups to expand on it based on each group’s particular needs. Their title will also use Discord’s fundamental structure to allow players to create channels, voice rooms and notes to aid in creating something that feels like a physical building - quiet corners, noisy main dining areas, hidden notes stashed in drawers, and so on. Fans of the other online cooperative game, This Discord Has Ghosts In It, will be pleased to know designers Nevyn Holmes ( Gun&Slinger), Chris Bissette (The Wretched) and Julie-Anne Muñoz used the 2020 digital LARP as heavy inspiration for Kitchen Knightmares, calling it the progenitor of their newest title. What follows should be, according to the Kickstarter description, “some light-hearted and very chaotic roleplay” built on a rules-light RPG system that favours collaborative storytelling with no dice rolls or maths-crunching involved. The former was transported into the most radical decade by the latter, who followed along to gloat about their mystic tomfoolery. Kitchen Knightmares calls for five or more people to create a dedicated Discord server wherein the participants will be assigned one of three roles - most will comprise the diner’s patrons as typical ‘90s college students, while two will be secretly designated the Knight and the Wizard. What do medieval knights, diner placemat menus and Discord servers all have in common? They’re elements of the new hidden-role RPG Kitchen Knightmares, a Discord server-based roleplay experience full of regular diners and a temporally-displaced pair of interlopers.
