With over 12 publishers sponsoring our contest, our prize pool is getting so huge we just had to blog about more of the great prizes that are perfect for any horror fan.

Here are just a few of the great prizes available in the Flames Rising Favorite Horror Game Contest.

Aletheia from Abstract Nova

Wastelands from Apophis Consortium

This supplement takes the characters outside of the Zone’s protection and into the relentless ravages that is the Wasteland. If surviving the confines of the Zone seemed perilous, try to test fate in the unforgiving Wastelands, where Daemons roam wild and kultists are freed from the ever-vigilant eyes of the Law. Each town struggles to survive political rifts, famine, scavenging raids, and of course the Daemonic armies of the nearby Terraformations. The Wasteland is an everchanging landscape catered specifically for the toughest of inhabitants. So whether they are from the Zone on a corporate expedition or they are exiles trying to survive, life is fast and definitely dangerous in the Wasteland.

Bright eyes, beautiful people, and broken promises fill the fabulous parties and elegant conference rooms. Loneliness, despair, and hunger haunt the city streets and tenement apartments. In Los Angeles, the facade makes the heartache all the more bitter.

How can one person stand up for the helpless while warding off the apocalypse?

Posters, Prints and more by Joseph Vargo from Monolith Graphics

Vampires who dwell deep within forbidden crypts, lost souls who wander mist-shrouded cemeteries, and gargoyles of living stone… Enter the world of this modern master of the macabre.

The powerful and captivating artwork of Joseph Vargo opens a gateway to the darkside and dares the viewer to venture within. While his work is dominated by an immense and memorable array of ominous and often nightmarish entities, his timeless images are also permeated with tremendous beauty, grace and symmetry. His art has achieved a resonance and popularity partially because of this ability to shed light on the inner demons that lurk in the shadows of the mind, while also not forgetting the sometimes majestic grandeur that resides there as well.
