Interloper: A Sandbox Murder Mystery Lands for Mothership Month

Granada, Spain, November 11^th, 2024- Silverarm is very excited to announce the launch of Interloper by Joel Hines.

A rogue planet once hailed as a utopia, drifts toward its frozen doom between the stars. It was built up by media tycoon Thomas Forsythe as a haven for art and creation with the best of a hundred worlds. Now Interloper is just another unfinished and abandoned dream after a corporate coup. The sun is fading, and eternal winter comes for half constructed monuments to ambition and the few still living in their shadow.

Now, Forsythe has been murdered, and your crew is press-ganged by his sister to solve the mystery! Descend into the decaying grandeur of Interloper, uncover its secrets, and find the killer—before the blame is pinned on the PCs. Try to survive Interlopers' hidden dangers, solve the crime, or save its eccentric inhabitants—you'll be lucky to pull off one of them.

What's Inside?

• An investigative mystery sandbox book that provides a web of interconnected clues allowing PC's to choose the leads they want to follow up on or catch the next podway and go off on a wild hunch. 
• 8 peculiar Persons of Interest with varied motivations, opportunities, relationships to each other, secrets and jobs to offer.
• 25 varied locations across the five completed themed pavilions of the planned Hundred Worlds Festival- desert bound Karth, the waterworld of Mani, the mausoleum settlement of Lost Light, the impossible woodlands of Acadia, and the shining center of Interloper Hub.
• 3+ detailed and mapped dungeon locations from the submerged Underdome, to the dying Omega Tree, to the industrial Forsythe Bot Repair Bay. 
•  A ticking clock pushing the investigators forward as dangerous developments loom over their closing time window of four days.
• Plenty of plots and secrets.

Interloper starts crowdfunding on Backerkit 10am PST, November 12th, 2024, as part of Mothership Month.
