Your home planet was destroyed.
You are aboard the last starship with the sole survivors of your people, and you must find a perfect rock: a new planet to call home.
A Perfect Rock is a tabletop roleplaying game for 1 to 4 players.
No gamemaster is needed.
Sci-Fi Adventure
Travel to distant stars and search for a new planet to call home.
Navigate a star map and discover secrets in the depths of space.
Worldbuilding
Create and explore planets using real rocks as inspiration!
On the journey, learn about life on your starship and
remember the home you left behind.
An expedition to find a new home takes 1 to 2 sessions to play, and each expedition is unique.
1. Explore the Stars
Travel to distant stars to search for a new home. Each star has secrets that will influence the planets, journey, and people aboard your ship.
If you want a short game, play a 1 or 2 star journey. If you want the full experience, embark on a 5 star expedition deep into the galaxy.
2. Explore the Planets
Each star has planets that could be your new home.
Choose a rock and use it as inspiration for the planet. Survey aspects like the sky, flora, or fauna, and roll to see how strange, deadly, or perfect they are. As each player adds detail, a full picture of the planet emerges and (spoiler alert...) they are rarely perfect!
Instead of a character sheet, you'll have Explorer's Notes. Record the keepsakes and strange relics you find by drawing them in your notes. Build a collection and remember your favourite planets.
3. Explore the Ship
With your old planet destroyed, the starship is your current home.
Answer prompts and envision small scenes to discover the important people, places, and memories aboard your ship. But as time passes and extra-terrestrial influences push in, expect your people and home to change.
4. Choose a New Home
When the starship fuel runs low, you must make a choice: which planet will be your new home?
