Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical is an epic tale of gods, magic, and a millennium-long journey to rediscover one’s purpose. Players will “dive into a urban fantasy world of music and adventure, where reality and the supernatural collide in strange and nefarious ways.” In Stray Gods, players will take on the role of Grace, a normal mundane human who was recently bequeathed with the power of song by the Last Muse who chose to pass on her gift before dying in Grace’s arms. “Armed with the power of spectacular musical numbers, Grace has one week to prove her innocence in the Muse’s death before a group of mythological beings known as the Chorus – take your life as punishment.
Make friends, foes, or lovers as Grace navigates through this treacherous journey and engage in a celestial battle of wit and musical might.”
Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical launched on August 10 to critical acclaim and has been selected for a number of prestigious awards and festivals such as the TRIBECA Festival, BIG Festival, Game of the Year at the Australian Game Developer Awards, and earned a nomination at the Grammy Awards.
