BLUE SHIFT

Humanity was obviously not meant to explore the stars. Short lives versus centuries of travel, hard vacuum versus soft tissue, indefinite isolation versus creeping madness. And what is there to explore? Ice, gas and barren rocks irradiated by alien suns.

And so, naturally, a ship of humans departs the solar system.

Blue Shift is a tabletop space travel roleplaying game that's more about the crew than what they find in the great unknown: what tears them apart, what might bring them together and how they deal with crisis. It's designed with single-session play in mind: a good game of Blue Shift should be like a tense, dramatic science fiction film or short.

The game consists of instructions for play and detailed sheets for roles to guide your play. The game is available free of charge but donations are welcome if you would like to support future games or add-on playsheets.
