Description:
Strange waves of energy are bombarding the Earth, causing the dead to rise! Top scientists say it radiates from a mysterious planet in a passing nebula, reachable only by the experimental flying saucer, Saturn 3, a wonder of technology born of our combined efforts with our little gray allies from Beta Reticuli. Now is the time to gather your crew, launch into space, and find what heinous force menaces our small blue marble of a world! A game of Pulpy B-Movie Sci-Fi goodness using the same core rules as Numinara and The Strange.

Glad to have you! Cypher lends itself well to cinematic action and over the top adventure (and thus Pulps/B-movie fun). Just putting final touches on the game and thought I’d list a teaser for the crew of the Saturn 3:
The heroic Captain, a Brash Warrior who Leads!
The psychic first-contact officer, an Appealing Speaker who Commands Mental Powers!
The alien Engineer, a Gray Adept who Talks to Machines!
The cowardly Scientist, a Craven Explorer who Conducts Weird Science!
The Red-shirt, a Strong Warrior who Looks for Trouble.
The plucky young Pilot, a Naive Explorer who Fuses Mind with Machines
Yay, got into this game, too! Thanks for running this. Cait said she played Numinara at Big Bad last year, and the system left a lasting impression on her. We’re looking forward to trying this core system with Pulpy B-Movie Sci-Fi goodness!!
