All you need to do to get your free copy of The Council is enter the promo code RPGPARTY at checkout when you buy a game worth at least £8 / $8 from the adventure / RPG sale. The code is valid until the end of the sale at 8.59am GMT on March 26th, and it probably goes without saying that you can only use it once. I enjoyed The Council when I played it back in 2019, even if its plot goes massively off the boil in the middle of the fourth episode. Until that point, it’s a neat detective game about a secret society of world famous leaders who meet up to change the course of history, and its RPG-led dialogue options let you exploit their personality traits to gain new clues and info. It’s brilliantly done, and it could have been a detective game for the ages if it wasn’t for that terrible, terrible ending. Still, it’s definitely worth playing the first three episodes if you’re getting it for free, and here are some hand-picked highlights from the sale that will help you get it:
