About the game
What you do in a play session
In this supplement for Deep Space D-6, you'll pilot your ship through unexplored sectors, with every decision weighing heavily on your journey. Spend fuel wisely to move between systems, but beware: each stop can bring unexpected encounters, tense combat, and ethical dilemmas that will test your crew and your past choices. Your unique crew members have special abilities that can help you overcome obstacles or make more advantageous decisions. Manage your resources, use dice strategically, and unravel the mysteries surrounding your predicament.
"The Long Way Home" blends tabletop RPG elements with dice rolling and worker placement gameplay, all in a print-and-play package. You'll need a player sheet to track your progress, manage ship upgrades, and the traits of your team. Dice luck can help, but the strategy in how you use your 'workers' (the dice!) is what will determine if you can unravel the galaxy's secrets and bring everyone home safely. It's a challenge for those who enjoy thinking and planning, with a good dose of luck and space immersion.
