Triangle Agency
A downloadable TTRPG
Welcome to the first job of the rest of your life!
This page is for the digital PDF of Triangle Agency. You can preorder a physical copy, dice, and other materials here.
Triangle Agency is a tabletop role-playing game in a present-day setting about wielding enormous, reality-warping power, navigating bureaucratic red tape, and juggling your everyday responsibilities.
Player characters work at the Triangle Agency, an international corporation with influence in every industry. As Field Agents, players investigate and capture supernatural Anomalies that threaten the lives and comfort of normal citizens.
Designed for campaigns of 10-30 missions or high energy one-shots, our brand new game system creates seamless transitions between chilling horror, wacky comedy, and the emotional truth of trying to survive in a world with no right answers.
Here's some of what to expect in this 300 page, fully-illustrated game book:
- Learn about the mysterious Triangle Agency and your role in advancing its mission in the Field Agent Manual, featuring basic game rules, story guidelines, setting details, and important regulatory information for compliance with Agency standards and practices.
- Action and conflict builds naturally with our all-new Stability/Chaos rule system, where every roll creates Chaos for Anomalies to spend on powerful effects and obstacles.
- Build your Agent character by selecting their ARC! Each player selects three pieces representing your Agent's Anomaly, Reality, and Competency, creating up to 729 starting combinations and a completely personal set of abilities as they grow and change.
- Receive advice from the Agency on how your GM can prepare and run missions using the General Manager's Toolkit, including examples of interesting Anomalies and ways to bring your Agency Branch to life!
- Finally, as your characters grow in power and prestige, peer behind the Playwall to access hidden powers, items, and hidden details of Triangle Agency’s story. Inspired by legacy board games, the Playwalled Documents provide countless hours of discovery and surprise, accessible only by playing the game.

How well does the Playwall system work if I'll most likely be running a bunch of shorter games. More than likely with new characters/players everytime
I wouldn't worry about the Playwall if the players are different every game, but if Agents might recur at all, let them keep track of their Time! It's totally fine if Agents are misaligned in total Time spent.
Hey, just bought the core book and the vault missions, might be a silly question but as GM should I read the playwalled content? Or is it meant to be a suprise to me as well as the players?
You can read to whatever level makes you feel comfortable -- If you want the most to work with, I usually recommend GMs read through the Work/Life Balance paths to have an idea where the game is headed! It's fun to let players surprise you with their abilities, though.
We're working on getting our European fulfillment partners set up on our website for now, but: after physical release this year, we'll be distributed in European retail (and online) with Modiphius, and we're also currently working with an Italian translator for a version published in Italy!
I would love to purchase this, but I'm holding off until I can get it in an offset print; 300 pages is too much for a mere PDF to contain!
If you're looking for a physical copy, you can preorder one here: http://preorder.hauntedtable.games/ and it comes with the same digital files!
The book itself is so immersed in the game world, you can tell its just oozing with love for the project and for gaming as a whole! Liminal horror is one of my favorite genres, and y'all really nail it. The terms and conditions bit at the beginning of the book was a beautiful touch, along with all the other little flavorful bells and whistles. Can't wait to start playing!! Congrats to the whole team :)
I backed this on Kickstarter and I'm EXCITED to get playing it.
I have to ask, though, is it possible to get a compressed version of the digital book? 140MB isn't unreasonably huge, but it is very lorge.
I am sure it's possible! Manipulating PDFs without removing features and reducing art quality is not something I know a lot about yet, but now that the game is in people's hands we have a long checklist of stuff like this to research and improve! Thanks for asking!
Got it down to about 1/3 the size last night! Hope this works better for you!
Much better! Thank you very much!
I've seen some folks just do a 'digital' version that has lower quality art just to make it run better on phones and low power tablets, so you might not have to worr about making one high quality and also small file size book.
Big congrats on the release, Haunted Table team!
Thanks so much!
Tremendous work on the layout and the modular/unlockable content. Not only is this game a ton of fun, its good ideas will inspire many more!
I hope so!! We are in an era of such fast iteration and innovation in ttrpgs. I hope we can inspire some people to make their games weirder!
Absolutely incredible book. This is a labor of love from the entire design team, and it shows in how much care was put into every aspect of the visuals and writing. One of the most interesting and ambitious games I've seen in a while, and one of the few that's making me want to play a full campaign again. At twice the price, it would still be a bargain.
This is so kind!! Thank you.
One of the best TTRPG book I've ever read, really amazing art, layout, design and jokes. So fun and interesting to read, really thank you for all that work <3
The game just jumped to the very top of my "To play" list now :D
Thank you so much!!!!
