Skulduggery
A fast-paced roleplaying game of verbal sparring, betrayal, and sudden reversals. Characters are created in minutes by distributing and trading component cards, while simple action rules turn disputes into exchanges of competing assertions and punchlines. Players exploit opponents’ weaknesses, evade their own liabilities, and pursue self-defeating temptations for comic effect. Guidance covers running deceptive, adversarial sessions across different genres, with four ready-to-play scenarios involving interstellar traders, political cabinet secretaries, high school performers, and stranded pirates.
