AdvanceQuest: Chaos in the Chasm

A missing ambassador. A lost treaty. A strange asteroid. A deadly monster. You'll lead a team of gryphon raiders to investigate all of this (and more) in Chaos in the Chasm.

AdvanceQuest is a compact adventure system. Generate a character with any traits you want, and advance your way through the story, rolling dice against challenges and trying to reach the end.

A new chapter in the AdvanceQuest story is coming.

Using a clever new exploration mechanic, each foray into the story will offer different challenges using a simple combination of two elements. Select two of your own traits and roll off against the two story elements, and see if you can beat the dangerous situation. If you roll well, you survive to continue on. If you fail, you will take damage. But don't despair – you can spend Stamina to re-roll dice before you apply their effects! If you can make it through the story, you win! Your score is how many treasures you manage to collect along the way – see if you can beat your high score by playing again!
