RIMBOUND
A downloadable game
RIMBOUND is a push-your-luck industrial RPG designed for solo play.
You're an independent space hauler looking to earn some credits in the growing sprawl of space. With a contract in hand, you're rimbound. But before you can get that paycheck, you need to provide the goods.
You'll generate a star system, generate a cargo contract, and generate encounters to buy and sell goods (aka, the HAULCRAWL). Your goal is simple — finish the job on time, with as many credits in your pocket as possible.
RIMBOUND is a game of resource management as much as a game of chance. The only combat is with your calculator, your judgement, and your dice.
For fans of: accounting, spreadsheets, random tables.
The short rulebook contains:
- Lightweight ship and star system procedural generation
- Cargo encounters and random encounters
- Push-your-luck system for buying and selling goods, using d4 through d20
- Cargo logging and capacity tracking
Downloads include:
- Spread PDF for easy digital reading
- Print-ready PDF for booklet printing
- Play sheets — stat sheet, encounter log, mapping sheet
- Quick table reference
A digital play sheet is available in Google Sheets for easier tracking.
Print copies available soon via Etsy.
