THE BLOODSHIP RETURNS is a tabletop Metroidvania adventure, a 35-room spaceship dungeon bursting with adversaries and potential allies, tricks and traps and treasure. A power keg, a puzzle box, a Zelda-like space adventure as imagined by gnostic monks.
Works as a one-shot, a campaign starter, or a diversion or intrusion into existing games. Use the stock characters, or create or import your own.
THE BLOODSHIP RETURNS is also suited for solo or GM-less play, and requires no prior reading or preparation--the lore and character of the world is encountered and revealed gradually, through play.
