Death in Berlin

The supreme art of ware is to subdue the enemy without fighting.

– Sun Tzu

Immerse yourself in the largest nest of spies of the 20th century in the middle of the Cold War. Unravel conspiracies on behalf of the intelligence service you work for, out of patriotism or just personal ambition.

In this solo role-playing game, all you need is a deck of cards, a set of polyhedral dice and your imagination.

Through narrative prompts, you will discover the nature of espionage in an age where there are no mobile phones or the internet and nothing is what it seems.
