Showtime!
Showtime! is lyric, solo-RPG about hunting monsters, being glorious and earning coins!  Players take the role of a magnificent Bard, accompanying a Monster Hunter through wondrous adventures! Here's the catch: hunting monsters is a very competitive business... And your job is to weave the catchiest of tunes about your Hunter's feats, in order to convince audiences to donate some gold to support such noble work! Your stories need not be faithful to how the events actually transpired - as long as they're remarkable and entertaining and leave the people wanting more! Build up your companion's legend and coffers with each new song - while building up your legend and coffers as well (after all, you are the true star of the show, no matter what the haters say)!  ? To play Showtime! you will need this rule book; at least one six-sided die (1d6) and one twenty-sided die (1d20); a way to write down your glorious songs and keep track of your journey; and the confidence, style, grace and magnetism of the rockstar we already know you are!!  This book contains rules for one-shots and for campaign play, as well as optional rule variants for multiplayer sessions! ? Are you ready to make history?! ??? Showtime! was initially published as part of the Solo But Not Alone bundle initiative towards mental health awareness. We'd really love it if you gave the bundle a look and supported it instead of buying Showtime! individually - you'll be getting a ton of amazing solo games and help a great cause at the same time! ???
