You’re in Space and Everything’s Fucked is a terrifying tribute to sci-fi survival horror and gore-filled splatter films. It’s a game for 2-5 players, with one taking on the role of an isolated, hostile space station while the others embody survivors, emergency aid, or some other unlucky individuals that are probably going to die horribly.

Inspired by the similarly fucked-up situations found in the Dead Space, System Shock, and Alien franchises, You're In Space emulates the trappings of isolation space horror media through the lens of a tabletop role-playing game by using a narrative dice pool system focused on rules-light structure with high lethality, quick play, and random generation.

It's fast, visceral, and a terrifyingly good time with friends.


  •  Two books! You're In Space comes as 2 books made for each role; one for the Station and another for the Struggler.
  •  No prep! Designed to pick up and play, it's quick to start and easy to learn.
  •  Build a map as you go! Explore a randomly-generated space station as you play; flesh out a wholly unique map complete with set-pieces and objectives.
  • Make horrifying monsters! Visceral, exciting options for creating space-age terrors, violent machines, and terrible bosses.
  •  Die, die, and die again! Death happens, and the Struggler will always revive at a Save Point, but time passes and the world changes every time.


The dripping terror of not knowing what's around the corner, the knowledge that you don't know how everything works, and the excitement of telling a horror story with your friends—You're In Space has it all by the galactic truckload!

Designed as a genre piece, You're In Space stops at nothing to give you the tools to create exciting sci-fi survival horror stories with minimal prep or rule intervention. The rules are carefully constructed to give players everything they need to get knee-deep in horror and to keep the action moving, no matter what.

The Struggler fills the boots of the hapless sap that ended up in this situation. They scavenge, sneak, and generally work to survive by any means necessary in the face of horrifying creatures and untrustworthy NPCs.

The Station takes on the role of monsters and setting; generating both as the Struggler explores. They take a bird's-eye-view of the story and throw obstacles and objectives at the Struggler.


To play, you need:

  • At least 5 six-sided dice (d6)
  • Paper and writing utensils (or a digital drawing board)
  • Two or more players
