Rising Star - Sports Movie TtRPG
A downloadable game
This is a cooperative story-driven game in which the players write, star and direct their own thrilling clash of a Rising Star against a formidable rival.
The players create, and perform, the characters of the Star and their supporting cast. Additionally, they take turns filling the role of The Heel - a challenging antagonist; locked in a rivalry with the Rising Star.
The game is split into Phases, during which the players take it in turns to frame Scenes telling the story of their characters, using their background, physicality and Unique Talents to make their mark.
The end of the game plays out by discharging our tightly tuned tension mechanic - Underdog Actions - resolving Win/Loss trackers, the outcomes of characters’ personal Goals and their remaining Tags.
Includes vibrant pre-sketched setting with variant rules.
