A downloadable roleplaying game

All you wanted was a steady paycheck, a quiet life among the stars, and maybe a comfy closet to nap in. Action and adventure? "Mmm, no thanks. I’m good." The universe, however, isn’t taking "no" for an answer…

Time to grab some tools, buddies, and your brown space pants. Out here heroism may be less “epic deeds and grand destinies” and more “frantically pressing the right button before it all explodes!”

24XX Unlikely Heroes - Space Questing is a rules-lite sci-fi RPG that is distilled into just 4 pages that fit snugly on two sides of a sheet of paper. It is a hack of the awesome 2400 system, by Jason Tocci.

Inspired by the old-school Sierra adventure series "Space Quest", and its bumbling space janitor hero Roger Wilco, UHSQ can be used to run a no-prep sci-fi game that is more on the humorous, light-hearted side.

🚀 Features:

  • Rules: The 2400 system - simple, fun, and has surprising depth
  • Characters11 occupations, 4 origins, and 40+, uhh... "unique" skills
  • Oracles: For solo play or to get started, keep things moving, & add flavor
  • Random Tables: Dilemmas, (Sub)Locations, Countdowns, & Twists
  • Online Character and Adventure Generator (Click Here):
    An AI-driven character and adventure tool (WIP). This uses the included tables to randomly generate detailed characters and adventures in seconds. Currently it generates two characters and one adventure summary, including: NPC info, suggested dilemma solutions, potential challenges, possible clues, additional ideas, and descriptions for the corresponding sublocation areas. The characters are game-specific, but the adventures can be used with any system.
