Girl Underground

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Girl Underground is a tabletop roleplaying game for 3–5 players about a curious girl in a wondrous world, inspired by Alice in WonderlandLabyrinthThe Wizard of OzSpirited Away, and similar tales.

Follow a young girl’s journey of self-discovery through a whimsical fantasy land with the friends she meets along the way. Explore twisted, willowy woods filled with whisper-soft lies, or tricky fairy rings with riddling promises, all on the way to overthrow an unjust ruler and eventually find your way back home.

The game uses a simple system built on the Powered by the Apocalypse engine—the same foundation for popular games Apocalypse WorldMonsterhearts, and Night Witches.

The game comes with seven evocative playbooks:

  • The Girl: the hero of the story, who all the players take turns portraying

and the Girl’s Companions, who are portrayed by individual players:

  • The Beastie: a talking animal
  • The Construct: a handmade person given life
  • The Faun: a half-human, half-magical being
  • The Mythic: a legendary flying beast
  • The Ogre: a friendly giant
  • The Runaway: a child who now lives in the wondrous world

Girl Underground is a low-prep game played either as a oneshot or a short campaign of 2–4 sessions. The game provides locations, side characters, and theme prompts to build a wondrous land tailored to each play experience. With little prep required, Girl Underground is perfect for convention games or game nights when you don’t have a full table.

I bought the pamphlet version not from DTRPG but this is one of the most focused, most likely to create the targeted sort of story, and includes some of the most reinforcing playbooks of any PbtA game. It's also a game for teaching yourself about the limitations of gender assumptions and how to be a feminist. I have run and played in this game and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
