Over the Edge (2nd edition)

A surreal roleplaying game set on the chaotic island of Al Amarja, where secret agents, alien invasions, ancient conspiracies, weird science, and dangerous psychopaths exist side by side. Players create characters freely without skill lists or random rolls, defining their abilities and flaws in broad terms. Open-ended rules emphasize character development, improvised plots, and story over numerical detail, while the setting keeps allies, enemies, and hidden agendas uncertain. Guidance for the game master includes conspiracy details, story ideas, and three introductory adventures.
