Don't Look Back (role-playing game)

Don't Look Back: Terror is Never Far Behind (DLB) is a pen and paper table-top role-playing game that was initially published in 1994 by Mind Ventures.

Description

Don't Look Back is a game of supernatural and paranormal horror set in a world full of conspiracies. In addition to the first edition, a second edition of the rulebook was published in 1995. A supplement which included additional source material and adventures called Giant Psychic Insects From Outer Space was also published in 1995.

Reception

Don't Look Back was ranked 42nd in the 1996 reader poll of Arcane magazine to determine the 50 most popular roleplaying games of all time. The UK magazine's editor Paul Pettengale commented: "This was, until the release of Conspiracy X earlier this year, the best of the modern day horror/conspiracy systems. The actual mechanics are a tad clunky, but the world background and the way that the authors set the scene means that no ref can fail but to come up with dozens of classic campaign adventures."[1]
