The Well of Rings
A downloadable game
Find The Well
There are tales of an ancient well, guarded by spirits that haunt an abandoned church. It supplies not water, but wealth: in the form of countless, golden rings. In times of old, lovers would toss their engagement rings into the well before dedicating themselves to each other for the rest of their days.
Beyond the rice fields, past the gardens, you might just find it.
......
The Well of Rings explores the potential for horror in wedding rituals and love. It takes influence from Shakespearean tragedy—more specifically, its tropes of unnecessary death at the hands of a misunderstanding.
Don't know how to play Trophy Dark? Don't worry! All rules are included inside. To play, you need 1-4 friends and 3-4 hours.
This is a pre-print edition of The Well of Rings, with potential further updates to come.

“A deliciously creepy story that plays on every fear I had about my own wedding. Emotional to its core and a great example of how Trophy can explore horror beyond the grotesque."
—Sam Zimmerman (Typhos Games)
"The Well of Rings manages to mesh the sort of weird horror one feels with Vandermeer with unambiguous motifs of weddings and ceremony ... It manages to elegantly overlay our grounded and recognizable reality of warm sunlight and church pews with a provoking, supernatural dread."
—Jojiro (https://dungeonantology.com)
