SPACE DUNGEON 3: Voyages among the Stars
SPACE DUNGEON combines old-school feel with the vibe of Golden Age SF. It is a Science Fiction Role-Playing Game (SFRPG) standing proudly in the tradition of the Old School Revival (OSR) and is released under the terms of the Open Game License (OGL). It is my personal answer to the speculative question: "What would have happened had the authors of the Original Role-Playing Game been avid fans of Golden Age science fiction instead of fantasy?" BOOK III: VOYAGES AMONG THE STARS explains the rules for exploration¸ encounters¸ and combat and provides a general framework for the GM to tie everything together. Attractive and appealing features of SPACE DUNGEON include: Straightforward combat that makes ranged weapons meaningful without opening the door to tactical miniatures gaming; Rules for indoor and outdoor exploration¸ space exploration¸ and flier and space vessel combat; Traditional character mortality including the real possibility of permadeath; A style of presentation reminiscent of old-school RPGs: text that talks up¸ not down¸ to you; Classical 1975 feel combined with updated and streamlined mechanics; An entire SF RPG in 3 slim booklets with no filler and no wasted space. Print versions (3 separate booklets or a one-volume edition) are available through Lulu.com; see our website for links. An official SPACE DUNGEON starsailor record sheet is also available at our website.
