Death Game is a narrative-driven roleplaying game when characters compete in a high-stakes battle for survival.
Based on media like Battle Royale, The Hunger Games, and Squid Game, Death Game is ideal for both oneshots and longer campaigns. The system uses a rotating GM and a simple, roll-over dice system to make play streamlined and cinematic.
Throughout the game, players will pick up different characters, struggling against all odds for victory. As the number of competitors narrows and the stakes grow higher, you'll play until one of you wins, and the rest of you die.
During that time, you’ll build an arena, work out the rules of the arena, and grow attached to your mostly doomed cohort of competitors.
Written by indie darling Laurie O'Connel, the game features additional writing by Kayla Dice, Yanahn and Wendi Yu, art by Hodag RPG, layout by Luke Earl, and editing by Samatha Leigh.
The Playset includes a physical Arena Board and a copy of the supplement Deathmatch! At Castle Von Glaum by Hodag RPG.
