The gods are angry.
You can quell their wrath.
You know the road to mercy.
You must answer the question,
"What are you willing to give?"
MORIAH is a role-playing game of ordinary people facing the extraordinary.
It is a game of sacrifice, where people living quiet lives at the base of a holy mountain must attempt to ascend it in order to ask for the mercy of the gods. It is a meditation on what it means to give for others, inspired by LISA, Soul Sacrifice, and Blessed Messiah and the Tower of AI.
The game has a simple dice resolution mechanic for its challenges, putting more emphasis on player relations, difficult moral decisions, and storytelling. Instead, the core of the game revolves around the sacrificing of body, memory, or life to overcome these challenges, with fallen players becoming the Deities who run the game.
MORIAH: Final Cut brings this beautifully tragic game to print for the first time in an appropriately reverent hardcover tome. With new cover art from Jaen Nightly Butler, and plans for new Roads, you'll want to prepare your altar for this holy text.
"Beautifully written and brutal in its execution, Moriah commands attention with the authority of jilted gods."

In MORIAH, you will find:
- A sacrificial mechanic that sees you weighing up life and limb in order to overcome the challenges before you.
- A simple dice mechanic that evolves the more that you give, going from the humble d4 to the divine d100.
- The means to become a deity, testing the players who were once your friends for their worthiness.
- A character sheet that allows you to graphically illustrate what you have given, and what you have lost.
- Challenges that span the breadth of flora, fauna, demonic, and divine, to be overcome with the use of dice.
- Five preset Roads for the indecisive Deity (The Road Less Travelled, The Road of Thorns, The Road of Beasts, The Road of the Hanged, Road to the Capital) to use during a standard Journey.
