šš»ššæš¼ The Silt Verses RPG is a tabletop roleplaying game of folk horror and monstrous divinity, where strange gods haunt the landscape and civilization is fueled by commonplace ritual sacrifice. In this game, a group of conscripted agents called Custodians are sent into isolated territories to deal with these monstrous gods, terrifying angels, and other divine manifestations in order to appease them, neutralize them, or otherwise engage with the locals to find a solution to the threats they present.

Notably, the mystery the Custodians investigate has no canonical solution as it is discovered in collaboration with the players and the game master. The players are also periodically prompted to paint in details about the setting via improvised flashbacks into the Custodians' pasts.
