The Impending Doom

"The game where Players escape the deadly predicament they designed for their Characters themselves."

This is a Tabletop Role-Playing Game that can be played standalone or be incorporated in an ongoing campaign. The rules are short and fit one page.

The game is composed of two phases with the Introduction Phase inviting the Players to co-create the unfortunate predicament that will befall their Player Characters and the Main Phase where they will role-play an attempt at preventing it. Ideally, the Players should not be aware of this two phase structure, which should be introduced narratively as explained in the file.

The avaiable PDF file is the Game Master's Guide.

The game is completed but I hope to add an Appendix with ideas to help Players come up with their "impending doom" scenario.

This is my first Tabletop RPG, an idea I had and created in one sitting together with the illustrations for the One-Page RPG Jam 2020 (#1pRPGjam).

I hope you enjoy playing!
