For Small Creatures Such As We

For Small Creatures Such As We is a game about exploration not just of the wider galaxy but of the aliens you share your ship with. To get started you generate your Captain and your Crew, choose their skills, and customise your ship to better suit the type of Missions that you want to undertake. Whether that be as a passenger transport, cargo delivery, bounty hunter, diplomat, explorer of uncharted worlds, asteroid miner, derelict salvager, shuttle racer, criminal, or researcher. As you play, you will use a deck of playing cards to generate story Events that prompt you with scenes that build a narrative with your alien crewmates. After generating the basics of your alien crewmates, the rest of the game gives you ways to learn about their biologies, their cultures, their personalities, and their pasts naturally though gameplay. Share a laugh about some ancient sci-fi films and learn about how their species depicted aliens before they met them. See their best side as they push themselves to help during a difficult spacewalk. Learn why your pacifist monk pilot took their vow. There are endless possibilities for how your crewmates will shape up!
