Psychic Trash Detectives
![]() |
A diceless TTRPG played with real trash. Live fast. Eat trash. Solve mysteries.
Psychic Trash Detectives is a collaborative¸ shared-GM TTRPG for 3-5 players¸ about psychic trash animals solving the mysteries no one cares about.
Players use actual trash to generate elements of the game world¸ resolve questions¸ and push the story forward. They create the setting of the game together too¸ mapping out on a hand-drawn map the weird places where their characters find their favorite trash.
And when it comes to the psychic trash visions¸ they play weird¸ surrealist mini-games-like writing erasure poetry on trash¸ sketching with their eyes closed¸ and listening to playlists for musical inspiration-to determine the supernatural messages and memories.
This game won 2024 Crit Awards for Best Indie TTRPG and Best Cover Art.
