A fast paced and hilarious game, The Shab-al-Hiri Roach requires no Game Master and can be played in a single evening. If you enjoy crazed one-upmanship, furious stake-setting, and chanting guttural commands in Sumerian, The Roach would like to have a word with you.
This game—originally published in 2006— is soon to be completely out of print. These are the last copies, and have been bundled for sale with the supplement The Roach Returns while supplies last!
The Roach Returns
The Roach is back! This supplement to The Shab-al-Hiri Roach includes two new settings and 16 new Command/Opportunity cards. Overlord, written by Jason Morningstar, takes place in WWII England. Darker, written by Graham Walmsley, brings the Roach to the halls of Oxford.
