For Immediate Release
Arcane Manifold is pleased to announce Time Killers, a compact tabletop roleplaying game created as part of PocketQuest 2026.
The title began, appropriately enough, as a riff on the phrase “doing something to kill some time.” From there, it became something stranger, sharper, and much more dangerous. In Time Killers, players take the role of agents dispatched through history to ensure that certain deaths happen exactly as recorded. Not because those deaths are good, just, or merciful, but because continuity demands it.
Armed with limited equipment, buried instructions, and a fragile understanding of cause and effect, the agents arrive at critical moments where hesitation can fracture the future. Their work is ugly. Their orders are precise. Their existence may depend on obedience.
Designed for fast play, moral pressure, and time-bending complications, Time Killers combines dark humour, historical tension, and uncomfortable choices in a small but lethal package.
After all, everyone has to kill time somehow.
