Invocation of a Squealing God
A downloadable game
This forest reeks of blood.
Its air echoes with the squeals of swine.
The ritual nears completion, and it is too late stop it.
The Squealing God is coming.
Carve your way through the cult and do all you can to disrupt this foul summoning.
Invocation of a Squealing God is a solo tabletop roleplaying game. You are a warrior interrupting a summoning of a wretched god. Fight off the cultists over seven rounds to weaken the god before the invocation is complete. Then face off against the Squealing God itself in a final battle.
Using a suit of cards you will define the traits of the Squealing God which will affect its abilities and attacks creating a unique end to the game.
This game is a trifold document designed for printing and includes the ruleset and game board in the same document. Just grab some minis, cards and dice and you are good to go.
To play you will need:
- Assortment of Miniatures (or markers for the fighters)
- Handful of d6
- d12
- Deck of cards
- Pen and paper
Invocation of a Squealing God was created for the One Page RPG Jam 2024.
I need to do more testing and balancing and will also release a printable sheet of minis and trait cards for ease of use at some point.

Hi! Gave this a try yesterday, really like how it plays! I played one round, on layout two (the one with the terrain piece in the center), against a cultist, husk and priest.
Some things I noticed:
- I like the priest's mechanics, but his lack of offensive options made the final leg of the round a bit funny, as my warrior had to keep chasing him down across the map while he healed his wounds every turn!
- In the Player's turn, the third possible action is 'Use a Skill'. I couldn't really find what this refers to specifically - I'm assuming the Holy Icon and Lucky Foot?
Had a lot of fun with this one round, and I'm definitely going to give it another go sometime soon!
Adding on to this after another playtest - are you supposed to roll a Recover roll prior to your first activation? Because in some cases, if you don't activate first, the enemy can just waltz up to you and instakill you, as you don't have any Stamina yet! That doesn't seem entirely intentional.
