Ticking Clocks

Ticking Clocks is a micro-RPG about doomed characters fighting for their last chance at salvation.

It’s a game about pushing on till the bitter end, and keeping hope.

You play as a party of Doomed aventurers, all sure to face horrific ends — whether by death, or something worse. Together, you search for an item which could save you all. A last desperate reach for salvation.

Features

• The core rules fit on a single A4 page.
• Has extensive random tables for character and scenario generation.
• Character creation and scenario prep are extremely quick, requiring only a few rolls.
• Every decision you make brings you closer to your end. Make your choices wisely.
• Includes a printer-friendly booklet version.
• No character sheets necessary. Any scrap paper is enough.

To put together the booklet version, print it out double sided (not in booklet mode; the pages are already formatted correctly for a booklet layout) then fold the pages in half and staple them together along the spine.

Ticking Clocks was made for Clock Jam, organised by Cosmic Orrery Games and Nakade.
