I know most of our Tabletop guys sometimes wanted to find a horror game that can send a chill down your spine. So, today I’ll talk about one of my favorite RPG game.
Dread
Trust me you’ll stop breathing playing this game.
Dread is the pocket Tabletop RPG with only 167 pages. And so simple rule even the first grade can play it.
We only need three things to play this game.
- Your Heart – You need this trust me.
- Your Hand – This is more important than your heart.
- Jenga! – Yes that Jenga, you don’t know what it is? Look at the pic below.

Reading until you may think, “Wait, don’t tell me we’re going to…”
And the answer is
YES
We play this game by pulling Jenga
Before anything else just try thinking about this

In the middle of the night, you sit at the table surrounded by friends of yours. The room quiet with only the breathing sound and the story from your friend. Everybody become the actor of their own character in this story, trying to find a way to survive this unnatural event that occurs before them.

You trying to help your friend from the jaw of a massive beast in front of you. And before you can say anything, the GM yelling “PULL TWO PIECES”.
You look at the Jenga tower on the table, it leaning on the one side and nearly collapse by itself. With one wrong move, the tower will collapse, and your character will be removed out of the game.
But if you don’t do it, you can be sure that you’ll survive while your friend will be the one that loses his character.
The choice is yours.
And that’s the feeling you will have when playing Dread. Using Jenga instead of rolling dice and the more you pull, the more unstable it will become until its collapse. The player who makes them collapse will be removed from the game, and the tower will be reset (Preventing TPK in one round).
Now, do you understand why I told you that this game will stop your breath?
If you’re interested in this, you can find the PDF “Here.” And Jenga tower I think you can find it in the toy store near your house?
And this is Dread – The game will make you hold your breath.
