Assemblage RPG is a card-based eco-fantasy storytelling game for 2-6 players where each player portrays an entire species - and collaborates in crafting an interdependent ecosystem on the verge of collapse.
You'll begin by collectively choosing a strange and mysterious habitat. Then you will draw prompt cards and take turns describing the assemblage of species living there: history, relationships, adaptations, and myths. Then you'll encounter an epic environmental disaster - and explore what it means to survive.
The game comes in a handy portable box that contains:
Guidebook containing rules of play, safety tools, and help with facilitating a GM-less game for the first time
Habitat cards to inspire fantastical habitats
Ecological relationship cards to establish species interdependence and conflict
Event cards to inspire scenes and roleplay, and let you tell the story of your assemblage over time
Cataclysm cards to outline the depth and extent of the crisis your assemblage will face
Keystone species and Extinct species role cards that define player species who shape the story in special ways
A pad of tear-off species placards so you can name (and illustrate!) your species
