Broken Cities

ADD TO WISHLIST >

BROKEN CITIES is a diceless, GMless tabletop RPG in which players take the role of Travelers coming to a City with adventurous goals in mind, while the City wants to convince them to go through the sacrifice needed to fix it.

Its base version requires 2 to 5 players (though the game also includes a solo variant), for one-shots of 3-4 hours requiring very little preparation.

You'll like this game if you enjoy surrealism and weird adventures, asymetrical roles and urban exploration!

WHAT'S INSIDE THE GAME?

BROKEN CITIES features a complete game system plus everything you need to create and play adventures within its 88 pages:

  • Diceless, card-based game mechanics: it's always up to the players to decide whether they succeed at a cost or fail
  • A step-by-step guide to create the City and its odd atmosphere, as well as the quirky Travelers visiting it
  • Asymetrical roles: the City (controlled by 1 to 5 players) describes its streets and give the Travelers (played by 1 to 5 players) hard choices to react to
  • Dozens of examples to help you come up with ideas of NPCs and places on the spot
  • Variant rules to play the game solo
  • And more!

The game features a clear and efficient layout by Nicolas Folliot (already responsible for Meanwhile, in the Subway and Two Summers) and a gorgeous cover by Laurent Rivelaygue.

That sounds like an interesting concept, surreal, even; if you are currently handing out review copies, I would like to feature it in my Youtube channel; is there an email where I can contact you?

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.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
