HOMAGE TO D. VINCENT BAKER
AND
APOCALYPSE WORLD
The rules of this game are partially based on
the “Powered by the Apocalypse” game engine,
presented in 2010 by D. Vincent Baker in his
revolutionary game
Apocalypse World.
Vincent
changed role-playing games forever by intro-
ducing a new way to play that emphasised a
flowing conversation and a great story. Many
great games that use this engine have since
been published. We thank Vincent for his contri-
bution to the world of role-playing games which
also allowed the creation of
City of Mist.

PLAYER'S GUIDE
To my parents, Shmuel and Ariella, for Logos

to Mark, for all your help with this,
and to God, for creating
the best role-playing game of all.
INTRODUCTION
FROM THE CREATOR
Myths and legends have always been
an integral part of human culture.
Since the dawn of mankind, we
have told stories to relate universal
truths and to understand our
world. Legends appeal to a deep
place inside us, a part of us that
understands not through analysis
but through intuition. They convey
a message, a teaching beyond mere
knowledge. While they may seem
simplistic, listening closer could
reveal that they tell us the secrets of
the universe: about the cosmos, the
forces that operate within its theater,
and our place in it. They awaken a
sleeping quality in us, calling us to
ponder, to feel, to ask questions.
But what happens when the timeless stuff of
legends enters the sphere of our everyday lives?
How can such sublime material, originating
from the stars, find a body here on Earth, where
everything eventually turns to dust? Can these two
forces – the legendary and the ordinary – live in the
same space, exist together in the same person? This
is the question that lies at the heart of
City of Mist.
At its best, role-playing is a magical experience. You
and your friends tap into a wellspring of creativity,
a collective intelligence that creates stories
unbelievable in their intricacy and internal meaning.
At times, the dice themselves seem to conspire to tell
a great story. In the words of one of the playtesters
of this game: “We create a masterpiece, which we are
the only ones to ever see.”
I wish you a very enjoyable and awakening journey
of discovery with this game.
