The Andromeda Ward
" Ever wanted to create an original episode of the worst TV show never filmed? In The Andromeda Ward, you play the cast, crew and characters of a fictional sci-fi-horror-drama with big storylines and a tiny budget. Pick your actors, pick the characters they play, roll your randomised A and B Plots, and start filming! The Andromeda Ward is a tabletop role-playing game for 4-6 players plus Game Master, inspired by the B-Movie genre, plus movies like GalaxyQuest and shows such as Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. Play once for a standalone episode, or use multiple sessions to generate an entire season of your own so-bad-its-amazing TV show! - Trigger Warnings: body horror, gore, insects and character death can all come up in the fiction-within-a-fiction that is the TV show.
