Tabletop game «Loop of Tragedy» (Tragedy Looper) – is a psychological detective in an anime setting.
One player is proposed to become the writer, while three others become detectives. The detectives need to avoid the deaths of key characters for a...
certain number of days and at the same time not use all the available time loops. Even if all time loops are used up, the detectives still have one last chance — to accurately name the roles of all characters.
Otherwise, victory goes to the writer.
The events of the game take place in four locations, between which characters move. The number of characters and their roles (serial killer, murderer, etc.), as well as the tragedies that must occur (murder, suicide), are determined by scenarios (there are 12 in the basic game set). At the beginning of the game, only the writer knows the entire picture.
Before the game begins, all players receive the same set of cards. Each day (turn), the writer and the detectives play three cards on characters to move them between locations or change their parameters (paranoia and friendliness). If a character's paranoia reaches its maximum, they can become the culprit of an incident (for example, a suicide, disappearance, or murder). If friendliness reaches its maximum, detectives can take advantage of this character's trait.
If the current scenario for that day prescribes a death and all necessary conditions for it are met (characters have the required parameter values, are in the same or, conversely, in different locations), someone dies. Then the next day begins. At the end of the last day, the writer informs whether the detectives managed to win. In case of losing, the players go back in time, i.e., they start the scenario from the very beginning. The number of such returns is limited and set by the scenario.
