Fantasy RPG Esoteric Ebb is "the most exciting game Disco Elysium has inspired", says former ZA/UM writer

Among the first things I did in Esoteric Ebb was spectacularly injure myself by posing a question to a kobold guard that was actually a statement. To whit, "you are a kobold." My Dexterity hollered at me to stave off embarrassment with a witty follow-up, but I failed the associated dice roll and almost bit my own tongue off.

"Use this to your advantage," growled my Strength stat. "Intimidate him with your life's liquid." So I spat blood through my visor, all over the kobold's feet. "He is baffled," observed my Wisdom.
