Triangle Agency?
Triangle Agency is a tabletop role-playing game about investigating and capturing paranormal Anomalies.
The game was created by Haunted Table, an independent game studio founded by Caleb Zane Huett (my husband!), in collaboration with over 30 artists, writers, and designers. (thanks, everyone!)
A portion of the design of the Kickstarter page, which used a series of fully designed images rather than plain text.
I touched nearly every aspect of TA's design: the Kickstarter page, training materials for Agents and GM's (General Managers), sheets for tracking and organizing player information, 3D illustrations of key items and characters, packaging, and more.
The Kickstarter campaign ran in June 2023 and raised $379,602, which is 3,796% of the initial goal. The project was fully funded in under an hour.
A series of 3D product mockups I made for the campaign to show what the products might look like. A replica of the Ripple Gun, the tool Agents use to destroy Anomalies, was available to purchase at the highest backer tier. I created the model based on concept art by Ryan Kingdom, which is being used as the reference for creating the prop.
The campaign very quickly passed every stretch goal, so we added more stretch goals, which were also met. The game was featured on Kickstarter's front page as a "project we love."
In Triangle Agency, players take on the role of Agents who have bonded with Anomalies– referred to as Resonants. Each session is a mission: capture or destroy an Anomaly that is destabilizing reality. The gorgeous 300 page core rulebook is set in-universe, and sometimes even reading certain parts can trigger events in your campaign.
The rulebook is finished and began the manufacturing process in June. The books, box set, and dice are available for pre-order. The digital edition is available now! It's also included with the physical pre-orders.

I designed two major sections of the core rulebook: the dice rolling reference in the Field Agent Manual, and the General Manager's Toolkit (more on that later). The rolling reference is also printed on the top interior of the box.
A collection of spreads for the Field Agent Manual, a portion of the book that trains Agents.
When an Agent wants to use an ability, they roll 6 four-sided dice. If any land on a 3, the roll is a success. Any additional 3 enhances the effect of the ability. Any number that is not a 3 turns into Chaos, which can be spent by the General Manager to affect the game.
A successful roll.
For example, a resonant (an Agent bonded with an anomaly) paired with a Growth anomaly may roll to grow additional eyes with special powers– like heat, x-ray, or future vision– with each additional 3 rolled growing a new eye.
The Triangle Agenda is a collection of character sheets that allow Agents to track their progress as they play. There are pages for tracking abilities, work-life balance, and whatever else you need to remember. I designed this book in its entirety.
