HOME - Mech x Kaiju Mapmaking TTRPG
One year ago the Rift opened and the Kaiju attacked. It tore our cities apart, rampaging for days until we finally dropped the bomb. We killed the terrifying beast, but lost so much in the process.
We knew more would come so we built the Mechs: giant war machines, the pinnacle of human engineering, and our only hope for survival.
The Rift is reopening. It won't be long before the Kaiju emerge, but this time will be different.
Your home depends on you. Are you ready, Pilot?
HOME is a roleplaying and mapmaking game where you are a Mech pilot who must protect their home from a Kaiju invasion.
Build your Mech, map your world and the Kaiju realm, prepare for battle, and clash against Kaiju that will destroy your home if you fail.
Important relationships keep you going in your darkest hour, veteran pilots make sacrifices for the greater good, and you must decide whether to protect important infrastructure or cherished cities.
HOME is about action and exploration, but also about hope and loss.
HOME is a great one-shot experience:
- Play solo or up to 4 players.
- Easy to learn with no preparation or Game Master required.
- Reach your epic finale in 2-4 hours (maybe a little longer if you really like drawing and roleplaying...).
It is perfect for players who like creative play supported by solid but simple rules:
- A unique system that combines Mech building, map making, and narrative-driven play.
- Easy to learn d6 dice pool that reflects your story arc.
- Draw maps of your world and the Kaiju Realm - no drawing skills necessary!
Create the World, Pilots, and Mechs you envision, and do your best to keep them alive:
- Choose from one of 6 playbooks, such as the prototype-loving Engineer, the knightly Royal, or the mysterious Aethereal.
- Push deep into the Kaiju Realm to face increasingly dangerous Kaiju (who are played by the other players!)
- Use dozens of oracle tables to quickly build your Home, Pilot, Mech, Kaiju, and mission - which you’ll need, because things will die...
