In space, no one can hear you fail your Sanity Save.
Mothership is a sci-fi horror tabletop RPG where you play blue-collar crew – marines, androids, scientists, and teamsters – trying to survive the worst day of their lives out on the Rim. It’s built for tension over power fantasy: violence is brutal and usually a losing bet, the rules run on a simple percentile system anyone can pick up in minutes, and Stress and Panic mean your character’s nerve can break just as easily as their body. Whether you’re investigating a derelict, hunting a bounty, or trying not to die on a mining station that’s gone very wrong, the odds are stacked against you on purpose – and that’s the whole point.

We’re big fans of the team at Dungeonland — a proper independent games shop run by people who know and love the hobby. If they’ve got it on the shelf, that’s where we’d start.
Can’t find it there, or prefer digital? DriveThruRPG is usually your next stop.
