ChargeQuest!
A downloadable adventure card game
ChargeQuest is a work-in-progress series of rules, ideas, concepts, and methods for converting Powered by Charge TTRPGs into customizable adventure games in which you'll create or recruit a party, discover Quests to complete, encounter Complications, and gain Assets and Experience. It is a sandbox for you to play around in, a guideline for telling new stories and exploring new narratives in the worlds of any Charge TTRPG.
It could be a simple way to kill time while playing solo, a competitive multiplayer game, or even a collaborative storytelling tool.
And all that's required is a pack of blank notecards, a handful of dice, these rules, and your imagination.

This is really cool! How many people would you recommend for the multiplayer format?
Oh, whoops, I'd completely forgotten about this! It desperately needs reformatting and everything!
Three players seemed to be the sweet spot in playtesting. It works really well in Solo Play, especially after you've built up a series of characters, items, and NPCs so it feels more like a world. I had a lot of plans for this, including an additional board game format and a few preset themes, including Overwatch and RWBY. It would be fun to get back to!
Absolutely!! It's a really cool project. I'd be excited to see what you bring to it if you decide to work on it again :)
