Distress Calls is a sci-fi horror micro-RPG centering around the skeleton crew of an understaffed space station, rundown research facility, or underpopulated frontier colony. When outside influences introduce complications, will the party work together, or tear each other apart trying to stay alive?
Clocking in at a single page (double-sided), Distress Calls is packed with robust tables for character & plot generation, and game mechanics to keep players on their toes at all times. Distress, and how easy it is to accrue, will make everyone need to choose their actions wisely.
Distress Calls is inspired by such franchises as Alien, The Thing (and really all of John Carpenter’s body of work), Event Horizon, and Outland. The base dice resolution mechanic draws influence from PbtA-based games.

Yes totally, it’s like this in full book form and uses the mork Borg basic system
It’s dangerous to umlaut alone.
