Project Update: Exploring the Death Game Sheets in Despair Dilemma

Hey Ya'll!

Thank you to everyone who made it for the first Pocketopia Showcase Stream, it was a blast! If you missed the chance to join us, we have a VOD set up on our YouTube Channel here so you can get a quick look at some of the TTRPG Projects available in Pocketopia! Be sure to join us next week for the Card & Board Game showcase too!

With that all said, lets follow up last weeks update on the Plot Books with a look at the Death Game Sheets available in Despair Dilemma!

The Five* Death Game Sheets Books 

The Death Game Sheet you choose at the start of your session represents the core setting for the Death Game you and your friends will be masterminding! Each of the five options we've included in the core book follow unique story lines and many have special mechanics associated with them to help fulfill the type of setting they represent. These five Death Game Sheets are:
  • Old Locke Mansion ( ☠︎︎ )
    Characters are trapped in a mansion and must kill to escape.
  • The S.S. Opportunity ( ☠︎︎ )
    Those down on their luck are entered into a death game on a cruise.
  • Oubliette Academy ( ☠︎︎☠︎︎ )
    The world's premiere students are forced into a game of life and death.
  • Brimstone Island ( ☠︎︎☠︎︎ )
    Shipwrecked and without a way back home, characters must kill to survive.
  • Hikyougawa Village ( ☠︎︎☠︎︎☠︎︎ )
    Locals and visitors are trapped by a supernatural force in a rural village

The skulls next to each sheet represent how many extra mechanics the Death Game Sheet adds and how much of an impact they'll make on your play session. For example, Old Locke Mansion adds no special mechanics but Oubliette Academy adds a Special Skills system to show off the victims expertise Hikyougawa Village adds taboos that can kill characters when crossed enough times!

With that said, the Death Game Sheets we've made aren't the only Death Game Sheets you'll be able to play with! Despair Dilemma comes with a set of Death Game Sheet Creation tools to help you make any kind of Death Game you can imagine! Additionally, we have a number of stretch goals planned to commission Death Game Sheets from Content Creators across the Death Game fandom!


The first of these will be a Death Game Sheet by the developer of the fan game Danganronpa: Antebellum, Rippile! We're very excited to see what she's going to make for Despair Dilemma, and this is only the start of some pretty exciting collaborations we have in the works as we reach higher and higher stretch goals!

I'm excited to show y'all more as we get closer to launch!
