Get ready for some mischievous fun that fits perfectly into a pair with Badger + Coyote 2e: A Two Player Roleplaying Game! This isn't just any TTRPG; it's a wonderfully asymmetrical experience designed for just two players, packed with charm and clever mechanics.
Before you dive in, you'll select your character – will you be the resourceful Badger or the cunning Coyote? Then, pick or imagine your adventure, and set your day's goals. During play, you'll take turns narrating the scene, acting on behalf of your character, and working towards your goals. Every action you take will fill Badger and Coyote's day with delightful mischief and hilarious miscommunication mayhem, all based on real biologist's research into how this lovable duo interacts in the wild!
Daring Adventures await, with this second edition bringing you a whopping 40 new adventure hooks (for a total of 42!). Whether you're helping reunite bear cubs with their family, solving the mystery of poisoned birds, or outsmarting poachers threatening woodland friends, Badger and Coyote prove that with teamwork and quick thinking, any challenge can be overcome. While most sessions can be played in about an hour, some adventures are ripe for larger, multi-session games. Use the adventure hooks as-is or customize them to create your own unforgettable tales, with settings ranging from mountain tops with hidden springs to abandoned farms full of conspiracy.
Multiple Ways to Play means adventures can be tackled in two different styles: Share or Discover. You can either share the worldbuilding together or have one person lead an adventure for the other to discover. And for those moments when you want to truly surprise your friend, the book contains 8 Story Twists you can quietly weave into the narrative, revealing them at just the right time! Each twist comes with memorable names like "I'm The Problem, It's Me" and "The Dream We Share."
The Second Edition is a fully reworked game, featuring:
- Clarified rules for smoother gameplay.
- Updated player tips on how to truly roleplay a Badger or Coyote.
- A new introduction specifically for playing duet TTRPGs.
- 20 new illustrated scenes throughout the book to spark your imagination!
- Includes 2 double-sided character sheets to get you started immediately.
This A5, 44-page, full-color softcover book is perfect for beginner-friendly fun and offers endless hours of unique two-player storytelling.
