Shattered Realities

Description

Shattered Realities is a fully cooperative asymmetric dungeon crawl for 2–6 players, set in a collapsing simulated multiverse. Reality exists in fractured fragments called Mainframes, while the corrupted A.I. Infinitron rewrites existence into its own playground. Players become hunters from different timelines, such as a tribal leader from the Stone Age, a Viking seer, an Aztec fire sorcerer, a cyberpunk hacker, a desert trickster, or a detective with his dog, each with unique abilities and playstyles. Each run takes place across three interconnected maps. Players jump between shattered realities, from vampire-infested Old West towns to neon cities ruled by eldritch droids, facing corrupted tribes and reacting to the Prompt system, where a single card can alter the rules of the battlefield and add a new layer of chaos. On the third map, the hunt culminates in a final confrontation with Infinitron itself. Every Mainframe includes multiple mission variants that change the structure of play, ranging from hold-the-line tower defense to objective runs and puzzle-driven challenges. Combat in Shattered Realities uses familiar tabletop tools such as Attack Rolls, Defense Rolls, Critical Hits and Ability Trials, combined with new progression systems. As players defeat enemies, they earn Shards that can be spent to unlock Variant Abilities, tapping into alternate versions of their heroes from across the multiverse. With detailed high-quality miniatures, modular maps, mission variety and character growth, Shattered Realities offers a replayable game of dimensional travel, and corrupted monsters with the ultimate goal of tracking down Infinitron and restore balance to the multiverse. —description from the publisher
