Bath Salts - eBook

The phones are ringing.

They never stop ringing.

Bath Salts is a tabletop role-playing game about surviving the true modern horror:

Customer service.

You play Customer Service Representatives working the phones during an endless 8-to-5 shift. Every hour brings another complaint. Every caller has a Frame of Mind. Every bad decision chips away at your remaining Self-Control.

And when that Self-Control hits zero?

You snap.

This is not a heroic fantasy.

This is a workplace pressure cooker.

You’ll handle callers who are:

• Confused
• Aggressive
• Stupid
• Convinced they are always right

You’ll choose your approach:

• Compassionate
• Indifferent
• Insulting

Roll the dice. Hit the Target Number. Try not to escalate.

Escalate too much and you lose resources.

Lose too much Self-Control and you lose everything.

The Structure

Eight complaint calls per day.

Five days per week.

Make it to Pay Day.

The goal isn’t saving the world.

It’s surviving corporate policy, emotional labor, and the psychological erosion of repeating the same scripted line 400 times.

What You’ll Find Inside

• A fast d6-based system
• Self-Control as a central survival mechanic
• Caller personality modifiers
• Escalation rules and burnout consequences
• Designed for one-shot satire sessions
• Dark workplace humor

Perfect For

• 3–6 players
• Fans of satire and absurdist comedy
• Anyone who has worked a call center
• Groups who enjoy stress-testing each other socially

The outbreak isn’t viral.

It’s procedural.

Thank you for calling.

How may we test your sanity today?
