Betrayal at Club Low is a 2022 role-playing video game developed and published by Cosmo D. It is set in the same world as Off-Peak, The Norwood Suite, and Tales From Off-Peak City Vol. 1.[2]
Players sent to Club Low to rescue a compatriot being held there. Unlike Cosmo D's previous games, which were first-person adventure games, Betrayal at Club Low is a role-playing game played from a third-person view. Characters have seven skills: cooking, deception, music, observation, physique, wisdom, and wit. To succeed at tasks, players roll dice based on their skills. They can improve their chances by buying skill increases and finding pizza recipes, which unlock bonus "pizza dice". Various bonuses and penalties can affect the chances of success, both for the player and their opponent.[3] For example, convincing a DJ that his mother is in the audience can make subsequent challenges easier.[4] The effects of previous decisions can carry forward, granting large bonuses toward the completion of complex and difficult tasks. All the details about dice rolls are openly presented, and players can choose to put them off until they are better prepared. Dice can be optionally rerolled up to twice. There are eleven endings.[3]
