Final Broadcast

🔥 THE WORLD ENDS IN FIRE 🔥

Against all predictions, the sun of your galaxy has just exploded. You have mere minutes—eight minutes and twenty seconds, specifically—before a crash of cosmic radiation boils you into space dust and destroys the galaxy. But you! You are here in a convenient broadcast tower from which you can send a message through a wormhole to places beyond your galaxy. A final transmission, telling the story of a doomed world before it all ends in fire.

FINAL BROADCAST is a very short improvisational storytelling game in which you transmit a final message as the galaxy is consumed by solar flame. It was developed in a week as a submission to the The Queerness and Games Jam.

👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏼 Players: Ideally 2+. 
⏳ Playtime:  ~10-30 minutes depending the number of players.
📝 Materials: You will need a pen/pencil, a cell phone, a d20 die (or virtual dice roller), printouts of the provided galaxy map (1 per player), and a box of matches.

Content Notice: This game is intentionally dark and is inspired by tragic horror roleplaying games. You are likely to encounter themes of death, loss, and devastation. Your experience of the game may still feature humor, joy, and tenderness... even though everything will burn in the end. Remember to discuss player safety upfront with your playgroup, and establish if there are any subjects that your group wants to avoid during play. 

Safety Warning: Note that this game does involve playing with matches and burning paper. Please be responsible when handling fire.
