Power Outage - The Core Rules

Have you ever sat at a tiny table drinking tea with a queen? Have you fought off a horde of couch pirates with a valiant young captain by your side? Have you ever searched the wilds of a backyard jungle for buried treasure with a team of tiny explorers?. If so, then you’ve already played this game. This book is your guide to play in the world of Power Outage.

Power Outage is a world where kids get to be heroes, and you get to guide them on their journeys. It’s a sprawling landscape that gives you complete control of the adventures you want to create. If you’re interested in playing a game that feels like a classic comic book, try the futuristic neo-Japanese metropolis of Shorai City. If you want to run a gritty detective mystery, then plumb the depths of the Atomnyy Zavod’s atomic-lit alleys. Want to attend a school of sandwich wizards in the heart of a sentient forest? The Overgrowth is calling.

The Power Outage Guidebook includes everything you need to run or play a game with kids or adults. This book features:

• A complete unique set of game mechanics that features a choose-your-own-adventure CAPE system (Combat, Alternative, Puzzle, Exploration) allowing you to easily create adventures, or travel through a published series.
• Simplified flexible and open-character creation that allows kids to create a unique hero tailored to their preferences.
• Over 100 villains and henchmen, plus the rich history, geography, plot hooks and roll tables for 5 different unique regions allow you to create any kind of adventure you want.
