Live Fast. Eat Trash. Solve Mysteries.
The world is electric with supernatural energy, an interconnected web of memory and emotional echoes that only animals can perceive. Nowhere is that energy more present than in human trash — abandoned, lost, and discarded objects with long history, aching with deep psychic wounds.
In this collaborative story game for 3-5 players, you play as Psychic Trash Detectives: animals who feel this energy in your bones.
Will you be the cozy grandpossum wrapped in an afghan made from shredded plastic? Or the shrewd cockroach who sees right through the lies? Touch trash, have visions, and solve the mystery plaguing your outcast community!

"The folks at Scryptid Games are thoughtful and clever, and the ode to synanthropes that they've created in Psychic Trash Detectives is beautiful and profoundly odd." — Avery Alder, designer of Monsterhearts 2, A Quiet Year, and Dream Askew
