Asher’s Ridge is a GM-less tabletop roleplaying game for 1–4 players. Together you form the Writers’ Room for an original paranormal drama television series taking place in the remote town of Asher’s Ridge. Explore the darkness that lurks deep in the woods, shine a light on the best and worst of humanity, and produce a show that your viewers will theorise on for years to come.
Asher's Ridge uses the word 'paranormal' to encompass the supernatural as well as the unexplained and extraterrestrial.
Inspired by television shows such as Twin Peaks, The X-Files, Stranger Things, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Fall of the House of Usher, and The Walking Dead.
