It is best played with one GM and 3-5 players, by the light of ten tea light candles which provide atmosphere, act as a countdown timer for the game, and allow you to literally burn your character sheet away as you play. Ten Candles is described as a \"tragic horror\" game rather than survival horror for one main reason: in Ten Candles there are no survivors. In the final scene of the game, when only one candle remains, all of the characters will die. In this, Ten Candles is not a game about \"winning\" or beating the monsters. Instead, it is a game about what happens in the dark, and about those who try to survive within it. It is a game about being pushed to the brink of madness and despair, searching for hope in a hopeless world, and trying to do something meaningful with your final few hours left. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe setting of Ten Candles will change game-to-game as the gamemaster selects different \"modules\" to run for an ever-changing lineup of doomed characters and scenarios for them to play within. The monsters you're facing will change every time you play as well, allowing every session of Ten Candles you play to be unique and to present an entirely new tragic story for you to tell.\u003cbr\u003eThese things are true: the world is dark, and you are alive.","brand":"Level One Game Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47668172194024,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0396\/7320\/0807\/files\/31f5d862-4bee-437e-93eb-b20d6c7bdc28.png?v=1757523479","url":"https:\/\/levelonegameshop.mom\/products\/ten-candles-rpg-softcover","provider":"Level One Game Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
