A few thoughts while reading:

  • I like the tone and world you set up in the intro. Kind of Better Off Ted.
  • I wish there was more to the handler creation. Only because I want to know more about the weirdos who are handlers.
  • Wish there was a bit more from the GM's end in regards to difficult charts.
  • Some of the mechanics I had to read a few times to understand. They make sense but could use a clarity pass.
  • The AFTERMATH phase is awesome! 

All in all, nice job. For a future edition, I'd love to see more about the corporation and the corporate culture there!

Thank you for the kind words!
This game was the result of a really frantic sprint to get something remotely RPG-like out there, so there are definitely some gaps in need of filling and we'll try to revise it soon. Thank you for checking it out!

Why would you ever not create a hero in Phase 0 when you don't have one?

Developer(+1)

Thanks for asking! In Phase 0 creating a Hero does not take an action, but the Handlers do not have information about the Threat yet. Once they know the Threat creating a Hero takes one of their actions in Phase 2. Handlers may want to design their Hero for the specific Threat that they received.
