Out of Print: The Tell-Tale Heart

The second Book Module for the Out of Print play system is the horror classic The Tell-Tale Heart' by Edgar Allan Poe. In this module, The "Narrator" will remove the lowest die or dice from the Act cards, which forces you to manipulate that die to get it back. This loss of control can leave you with fewer options if you don't handle it early enough. Drawing two Heart symbols will cause you to lose an Action card (and its Act slot), and drawing two Badges will give you a free card flip, giving you some extra options during the turn. Out of Print is a solo action selection and dice game where you are attempting to order the major moments of the chosen book where they belong in the three act structure of the story. By playing cards from your hand that represent the most important story beats of the book to ever changing available actions, you will attempt to synchronize the Act and Chapter of the moment. You will be trapped forever and lose the game when the book closes, unless you've aligned four or more Chapters to where they belong in the book. The base set includes 3 Act cards, 5 Action cards, and 1 Reference card. You’ll need this set to play. The game requires the starter module and any one book module. These are all books and other written works that have entered public domain, and a module is a set of 6 double sided chapter pages, the hero, the protagonist, and the book cover (that covers the hero and traps them inside).
