Mighty Marvelous Just Published

 

Great news! I just published my new solo TTRPG about superheroes, Mighty Marvelous, on itch.io and drivethrurpg! The game uses my universal system, MMUGS which you can read more about here. It is an easy to learn game system, perfect for beginners to solo TTRPGs. Despite having 25+ Skills to manage in Mighty Marvelous, rolling the dice and interpreting situations is easy, and a new character can be made in a matter of minutes. You also create your own hex map of a city, adding up to sixty different locations, three different categories of enemies, Lairs, your Base, and more. There’s also a ton of tables to roll on to get your inspiration flowing. Sample Villains are provided, but with the Villain Generator in the book, it’s easy to make your own Villains and Archenemy.

The gameplay is inspired by Ironsworn by Shawn Tomkin, Kal-Arath by Castle Grief, and Loner by Zotiquest Games. There’s a big journaling element to the game. The point, after all, is for you to forge your Hero’s story, triumphs and failures, and have a tale you would like to reread over and over again. Journaling in the traditional sense is not necessary. No need to write a novel, unless you want to. Mighty Marvelous can be played in the theater of the mind, or you can just jot down notes. The book provides all kinds of options, and even a prologue to give you an example of how to start the game.

I’ve always heard that getting started playing solo games is the hardest part, so I include tips in the book for how to start your own heroic journey, as well as tips for ending it.

I hope you enjoy Mighty Marvelous for years to come and be on the lookout for more MMUGS game settings, as well as Mighty Marvelous zines set to be released later this year.
