Sky Rock Rivals

A mini competitive TTRPG for 1 Bookworm (the referee) & 2-4 other Players.
You'll only need some D6 dice, some writing supplies, and a few hours.

You are a group of dubiously-allied adventurers who just met on a mysterious island floating in the sky. You know not each other nor what to expect, only your common purpose: to seek its fabled treasure. Overcome a series of trials together to see who shall ultimately claim the prize... if you even reach it.

Complicating things further, the strangeness of this place is such that the very Words needed to describe it - and even each other - begin unknown to you! You will figure out what lies there and who (or even what) your characters are by defining them as you play!

This experimental game was made for the Floating Islands on a Distant Planet jam, taking loose inspiration from Season 1 of Play to Find Out and the game it covered, Skyrealms of Jorune. I particularly latched onto the ideas of having to stumble your way through the strange language of a unusual world, and of not even knowing what every thing on your character sheet means until you have to use it.

To play Sky Rock Rivals virtually you can copy and use the playsheet here.
Note that it has separate sheets for the Dictionary & Characters and Encounters.
