Lockup: A Roll Player Tale

Players command a squad of imprisoned minions vying for reputation inside a fortified prison and the attention of the king’s Colosseum. Each round, players assign minions to locations around the prison—some revealed, some hidden—then compare crew strength to claim resources, recruits, and contraband. Players must manage a growing suspicion level to avoid guard raids during patrols while using resources to hire stronger goons and build items that boost their standing. Play runs six rounds; the player with the most reputation at the end of the final round wins.
