Those of Us Who Know Better: a trans superhero rpg

I just released a new tabletop game called Those of Us Who Know Better, in which you play trans superheroes whose powers come at a price. It is for 2-5 players and 1 GM, and supports both one-shots and campaign play. The game includes a 21-page Core Book, a 17-page Starter Adventure, and a fillable character sheet.

Those of Us Who Know Better includes:

  • An original game system with 5 stats, simple mechanics, entirely customizable characters, and simple rolls that require only a D10 die.
  • Options for powers and prices that alter the characters' base stats, enormously shifting their success potential with consequences both predictable and unexpected.
  • Simple combat mechanics that function as a means of resolution for rapidly occurring events, rather than forcing the players to choose violence.
  • A GM guide with tips for running the game.
  • An FAQ for cis people, so you don't have to ask your trans friends. 
  • A single-page play aid.
