Description

Grab your blaster and battleaxe and stomp into the depths of the Demon Ship. A solo micro tabletop game written by Malev!

You are the Survivor, the last remaining crew member on a Spaceship caught in an interdimensional portal. Demonic creatures now prowl every corner of the ship, threatening to stop you from escaping, but that’s handy for you because you are awesome and those Demons invaded the wrong vessel.

Can you restore power to the ship, engage the emergency protocols (and the self-destruct sequence) and escape before it all goes to hell? Demon Ship is an approachable, fast paced micro game that takes up minimal time and space. Using unique mechanics, basic D6s and a handful of miniatures, this game challenges players to use their wits and a fair bit of luck to blast their way out of the doomed Demon Ship.

The starter box contains:

1 x 45 page Demon Ship rule booklet
Free PDF included
1 x Token Sheet
1 x Resin Survivor Miniature
2 x Resin Blade Demon Miniatures
1 x Resin Gun Demon Miniature
1 x Resin Frog Demon Miniature
1 x 6"x6"x2" Game Box

NOTE: You will need to provide 9 D6 dice.

Quotes (from this video)
  • First he puts the channel 47000 in debt and now this.
  • Hi there well if you're watching this message you know it can really only mean one thing I am dead serious about finding a way to earn back the forty seven thousand dollars in debt minus ten dollars for lunch that Watcher played recently incurred somehow very mysteriously it's impossible really to know how it happened and then nobody can really be held accountable regardless my quest towards regaining our Channel's Financial stability begins now.
  • My Hope Is that disneylocano will be a great game with a similar feel to Magic the Gathering that may be a tall order but even if it comes close I mean Marvel snaps show me that there's room in my life for more lifestyle type games and the game with potentially a lower barrier to entry something I can certainly get on board with.
  • They said that I was a fool to search for it they said it was impossible but after exploring far and wide I have just discovered the long hidden land free of any human presence filled with Priceless discoveries never encountered before.
  • It made me realize that sometimes you have to sacrifice something you love in order to save it and that's why as my final Act while still in charge I saved watch it played by sacrificing it and selling it to another company.
  • Say hello to watch it played new parent company party lemmings media Holdings Incorporated.
