Oni

Oni is a social stealth delve into a mob boss’s derelict ship, inspired by Japanese Oni folklore and mythology. The players will have to act the part of honoured guests from 200 years ago to avoid the attention of ONI, the ship’s hallucinating AI, and the 20 brothers. Can the players escape the notice of ONI long enough to steal the 15 million credits and save the princess? Play to find out!

Games Master

Jamie Heitler is a tabletop roleplaying game designer and writer based in Edinburgh. He’s been obsessed with board games and role-playing games since he stole his first Fighting Fantasy book at the tender age of eight. When he’s not working his day job at the University of Edinburgh, Jamie writes RPG modules. He worries that his massive RPG collection may be contributing to land sinkage on the north side of his tenement block. So he distracts himself from this worry by starting a new project every two weeks. You can find him at https://bsky.app/profile/wind-blown-vagrant.bsky.social
