In partnership with Weather Factory, The Lady Afterwards is a boxed TTRPG (Table-Top Role Playing Game) for 2-8 players set in 1920s Alexandria.
Uncover a world of mystery and occultism with the help of a few friends! This tabletop game is set in the world of the Secret Histories, where hidden gods watch over a world of apocalypse, yearning and forbidden arts. It's designed for people who've never played TRPGs / tabletop games before, as well as experienced players.
Track down Audrey Leigh Howard, a woman of high standing and dubious morals. Investigate a suspicious gentlemen's club. Abort a plan. Avert a crisis. Or - depending on your choices - let the blow fall.

THE CONTENT:
Have not played the adventure, but amazed by the quality of the materials.
Looking forward to using with my usual game group.
It shipped pretty quickly, it has very high quality and looks stunning.
everything, per usual, down to the smallest details is thought through and perfect. No corners cut here.
I’m not a “gamer” per se - I know what they are and have sat in on a couple back in college. My son likes them and we thought he’d like this as a gift. Buying this was pretty easy - the website was easy to navigate and it was easy to choose the game I bought. I was worried that I had to provide additional multi-sided dice, but the game came with everything he needed to play the game.
The package arrival was a little cloudy - I wasn’t sure where my package was or when it would arrive (I needed to download a third-party app to track the package and I didn’t want to do that…). I don’t think this is reflective of the seller - shipping in November or December is always a question mark.
The crate was well packaged and protected. The game came in a hinged wooden box (think large cigar box) that looked pretty cool.
All the props were very cool and decently made - (aged and themed up - definitely a good detail) and all the maps, rule books and character sheets were well produced. I don’t expect this stuff to hold up to daily use, but I think they are awesome and add to the theme of the game.
Gameplay: I don’t know - this was a gift for my son. Based on the detail of the rule book and quality of props, I expect the game to provide sufficient challenge to be fun.
My son plays these games on-line with friends who live in other states…. I don’t see this as an issue - I think navigating on-line play is feasible without sacrificing the quality of the hands-on props.
I didn’t…
