It’s been a long, hard year working for the TerraTek Corporation. Your contract is finally up and the company ship is ready to take you back to HQ for payment so you can finally move on with your life.

Cyrosleep washes over you as you slip into the sterile white pod. Dreamless…timeless… You awake from your slumber to find the ship’s emergency systems blaring. Jump drives have failed, life support systems are critical. Scanners show that your ship is one of thousands trapped in the orbit of a planet that doesn’t show up on any star maps. No signs of life in your vicinity but theres a ship nearby - The Alexis - currently running in Low-Power mode. Maybe that will be the key to your salvation?

Mothership is a rules-light sci-fi horror RPG where your characters will face the unknown horrors of the Universe and attempt to Survive the torment, Solve the mystery, or Save the day for someone else. 4 stats, 4 classes, 3 dice, 1 page of rules. Let’s see if that’s enough for you to escape the Dead Planet!
