Brindlewood Bay is a roleplaying game created by Jason Cordova which combines elements of Detective Fiction (specifically Murder, She Wrote) and Cosmic Horror Stories. The players are a group of elderly widows and Amateur Sleuths known as the Murder Mavens who must solve murders around their titular hometown, in the process uncovering evidence of an Apocalypse Cult who threaten to bring about the End of All Things.

What Would X Do?

comment
What Would X Do?: Once per mystery, the Murder Mavens can think about how Amanda Delacourt, the protagonist of the Gold Crown Mysteries, handled a situation similar to the one they're in, and automatically overcome the obstacle by following her example.

Shout-Out
 Brindlewood Bay (Tabletop Game) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Each of the characters gets to pick a special "Maven Move" give the character a trait or ability based off the television or literary character they're named after. "B. A. Baracus" allows a Maven to negate harm to her and her friends once per mystery. "Frank Columbo" allows a Maven to gain an extra clue by getting under the skin of the rich and famous. "Dale Cooper increases a Maven's sensitivity to the supernatural and gives them prophetic dreams. "Sonny Crockett" gives a Maven Impossibly Cool Clothes which they can use to gain an advantage in certain situations. "Frank Dowling" gives the Maven a strong religious faith that lets them resist the Void. "Tom Hanson" makes a Maven Older Than They Look. "Milton Hardcastle" allows a Maven to gain extra experience by dealing out extrajudicial justice. "Jonathan Hart" gives the Maven a jet-setting lifestyle that makes them come across as more charismatic. "Angus MacGyver" gives the Maven the option of, well, MacGyvering their way out of a situation once per mystery. "Thomas Magnum" makes the Maven a personal friend of Robin Masterson, the author of The Gold Crown Mysteries. "Fox Mulder" gives the Maven a Mysterious Informant who will give the Maven information about the Midwives of the Fragmented Void. "Michael Knight" grants the Maven a trusty mode of transportation, though nothing as flashy as a talking car. "Rick & A. J." gives the Maven a sibling they have Sibling Yin-Yang with, whom they can call on for help. "R. Quincy" gives the Maven a medical background they can use to their advantage. "Jim Rockford" causes the Maven to receive an enigmatic phone message at the start of each mystery, asking the Maven to complete a task seemingly unrelated to the case, for which they will gain extra experience. "Scarecrow" causes a mysterious stranger to hand or drop off a Clue to a Maven once per session. "Colt Seavers" lets a Maven automatically perform a daring stunt once per mystery. "Gordon Shumway" gives the Maven a cat as a Loyal Animal Companion. "Remington Steele" turns the Maven into a Master of Disguise. "C. Auguste Dupin" lets the Maven deduce if something is about to happen.
