Players take the role of inmates at a facility rumored to use personality correction and other inhumane methods. The central mechanic ties character HP directly to their settings: name, likes, and other traits. Mental damage from the facility's schemes rewrites those settings. If all settings are overwritten, the character is lost and the player is out.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe game also includes an 'inmate work' system. Players who survive a session can create a piece of art or writing to share on social media, though the GM may censor parts of it. A companion website handles character sheets, session management, and inmate work storage. The package contains a rulebook, three scenarios, and sample characters. Four additional scenarios are sold separately at the Fourth Boundary online shop. The game is priced at 4,400 yen, with a launch discount to 3,960 yen until June 15.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Fourth Boundary ties character identity directly to HP.

Your name, your likes, your defining traits are all hit points. Mental damage rewrites them one by one. Lose them all and the character is gone. It is a direct mechanical translation of the premise: a facility that strips identity.","newsletterBlurb":"ARG group Fourth Boundary released a TRPG where character HP is their own settings.
