L.A.B. Crawler Mechnicians
I was inspired to make something cool for the Pleasure-not-Business Card RPG Jam, and here it is! You and your team of mechnicians maintain L.A.B. Crawler 846-A on the inhospitable ice planet Saegon. L.A.B. Crawlers are tough, mobile, mechanised laboratories built by the Science Alliance. However, the one you’re in has begun to malfunction... Your mission: Get your L.A.B. Crawler to Repair Dock HAL-2 before glitches shake it apart from the inside out. Caution: Your resources are limited. Keep an eye on them and everything will be fine! (Probably...) L.A.B. Crawler Mechnicians is a small, resource-management role-playing game. Set in the universe of one of my previous games (Remnants of Saegon), instead of taking on the role of a researcher seeking ancient relics, players play as a mechnicians trying to keep a titanic L.A.B. Crawler functioning amidst the arrays of glitches that occur in its modules. All you need to play is the card itself, a six-sided die (called the "glitch die"), and a multitool (that is, a paper clip). You can also play solo or with some friends—the more the merrier! I'm sure that some more playtesting is required to fix any glitches in the game, but I think that it's quite fun already. I definitely had a great time making it! Enjoy! :)
