Assemblage

Together, become a weird ecology. When the world shatters, how will we survive?
Assemblage is a science-inspired eco-fantasy RolePlaying Game in which 2-6 players collaboratively build the story of an interdependent ecosystem on the verge of environmental disaster.

In this game, you will:

• Use cards and a guidebook to imagine your own unique and fantastic creatures.
• Craft the story of an ecological assemblage: a group of species tossed together in a strange habitat.
• Encounter an environmental disaster, and play to find out how (and if) you survive.

This card-based, GM-less story game can be played in as little as 90 minutes — with flexibility to tell a longer story if you choose.

For fans of reflective story & worldbuilding games like Dialect and Microscope, Assemblage is the perfect addition to any TTRPG table seeking revolutionary, expansive play.

In the box contains everything you need to play Assemblage:

• Guidebook containing rules of play, safety tools, and help with facilitating a GM-less game for the first time.
• Habitat cards to inspire fantastical habitats.
• Ecological relationship cards to establish species interdependence and conflict.
• Event cards to inspire scenes and roleplay, and let you tell the story of your assemblage over time.
• Cataclysm cards to outline the depth and extent of the crisis your assemblage will face.
• Keystone species and Extinct species role cards that define player species who shape the story in special ways.
• A pad of tear-off species placards so you can name (and illustrate!) your species.
