Black Site Discuss New Samurai Monster Hunting Game, Hametsu!
November 28, 2022 by brennon
Black Site Studios are in the process of bringing its next miniatures wargame to the tabletop. Hametsu is a monster-hunting cooperative Fantasy game set in Feudal Japan and it has already got me very interested indeed!
Hametsu // Black Site Studios
Hamestu is set alongside the timeline of regular History and Feudal Japan but a cataclysmic event happens that throws everything out of the window. Rather than history progressing as it does in our reality, demons, monsters and all sorts of other creatures have torn their way into the world and now it is up to your band of adventurers to protect the people of Japan and send these creatures packing!
From what we know so far, Hametsu is going to be following the trend of previous Black Site releases and be focused on small boards packed with terrain. There will also be a heavy focus on narrative elements where, cooperatively, your hunters will sneak around locations, searching for clues as to what creature they are hunting. When the alarm is raised, all hell breaks loose and your hunters will have to take on deadly foes before finally, the boss is revealed and the showdown begins!
If you're interested in learning more about the development of Hametsu, Black Site are going to be documenting the process in their Behind The Game series...
The Story Of Hametsu: Episode 1 // Black Site Studios
They have already discussed some of the initial ideas and themes for the game and it's going to be interesting following the journey as this game comes to life. I am already liking the artwork and the snapshot of game mechanics has me intrigued. Monster hunting in Feudal Japan sounds epic!
Are you going to be following along with the development of Hametsu?

Definitely sounds interesting, I’ll be keeping an eye on how this develops.
Rangers of Shadowdeep, samurai style!
Looks good an the terrain an figures are fabulous for gaming with.
A great piece of artwork can go a long way when selling your tabletop worlds.
Add the video presentation on top and you ARE selling the product ( which isnt shown at any point ) : D
Im interested.
I am going to purchase ‘Test of Honour’ next year, because I have never done anything related to the far east, and a skirmish game like TOT is the perfect jump in point. I will get Hametsu too, as you can use the historical stuff you already have according to the video. I was also drawn to the honesty and determination (mixed with uncertainty) of this small company. This look into their world has made me want to support them with my wallet (not a big support to be honest, but every penny counts I guess!).
It helps to see our money going to someone who cares about the product rather than a corporation who view us solely as an exploitable revenue source.
Amen brother.
