The crew will not only have to deal with the Returned Sōma Clan, but also the firewalls and other defenses of the server itself. But don’t let the cyber-serenity fool you. It’s an idyllic scene for such a powerful construct. They’ll see literal streams of data flow past pagodas and shrines that make up the server’s processes. Once they’re harnessed, the crew will appear as virtual versions of themselves inside the BNZ4I-10 Cybershrine. We’ve talked about this process before in our Lore Drop video, where your crew’s collective computational power will be used to take over the server. Through a technique called harnessing, your crew will have their brains jacked into the web Matrix-style, where they’ll face challenges in a VR environment.
Whatever the case, what you need to do is clear get in and clean house.īut this isn’t a job that can be solved by a single person at a computer. The specifics of how your crew gets hired and even what group they’re working for is up to the Master of Ceremonies. Your crew has been hired to infiltrate and take over the server, along with clearing out all Returned Sōma Clan presence and code. If they gain control over all the data in the megacity, who knows what new chaos they could bring down?Īnd that, of course, is where you come in. In the past, this group has orchestrated attacks on government buildings, train stations, and sports stadiums. A terrorist organization known only as the Returned Sōma Clan have identified and taken control of the server for their own nefarious purposes. What is known is that the server has recently been taken over. Who created it and whether its abilities are from superior technology or some kind of magic is currently unknown. Among other things, they are able to redirect data packets, even those sent from secure locations, and transmit highly sensitive information into this mysterious server. Whoever controls this server has the ability to manipulate the flow of data throughout the net. This anomaly – codenamed BNZ4I-10 – displays cutting edge capacities that surpass anything the megacity has seen before. Somewhere in the vast sea that is the internet, a strange server has been identified. Instead, we’re going deeper…into cyberspace. But this adventure doesn’t take place on the mean streets.
TOKYO DETECTIVES CYBER FULL
The cyberpunk megacity is full of threats and criminal elements, just waiting to stab you for some quick credits. The most exciting part of the playtest, of course, is the demo scenario! The Son of Oak crew has been hard at work crafting a case that drops you right into the world of Tokyo:Otherscape. But even if your friend group doesn’t “do their homework”, the system itself makes it easy to grab a group and get going! We’ve talked at length about these rules before in our Dev Diaries and other videos. This playtest document features the current basic rules for the game, with the Player Moves and MC Moves neatly laid out. But now, you can try the game out for yourself with the Tokyo:Otherscape playtest.
You might have watched how the game plays out in our recent Tokyo:Otherscape In Action video. The Tokyo:Otherscape Kickstarter campaign is close to the finish line, with only a few days more to go! And thanks to all of our backers, we’ve made over six times our original funding goal, unlocking new adversaries, custom dice, and more jobs for your crew to run.īut the Kickstarter isn’t over and we’re not done releasing incredible previews for this project.
