STEM Station, a space themed TTRPG for kids!
A downloadable game
Welcome to STEM Station, a research base that's built on and in an asteroid!
As a magical sliding door opens with a FWOOSH and pulls you into a swirling portal, you suddenly find yourself in the middle of STEM Station, a research station in an asteroid flying through space! Take on challenges throughout the station's many labs to track down the self-stealing STEM bot that are "fixing" the station and to make medicine for a sick pilot!
STEM Station is a kid-friendly adventure that focuses on Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics themes in a setting that's fun and playful for kids that love space, sci-fi, and adventure!
Unique locations, NPCs, plot hooks, art, and more for fam-friendly tabletop RPG fun!
STEM Station features 8 fun locations and 10 awesome NPCs to run a full adventure or to add into your existing games for some sciencey fun.
Each location is on an individual page for easy reference and includes core NPC details for that location to make it easy for the group to either self-run the game or for a game leader to quickly see all relevant information without doing any prep.
Each location/NPC page also includes art made specifically for this game setting, and a couple have some bonus activities that you can add in as well!
Flexible game encounters facilitate multiple resolution paths
STEM Station also includes 3 encounters for players to face, and each one can be solved in multiple ways. Players may choose to use their skills to persuade and negotiate, to help the individual, or to face perceived opponents directly. Bonuses may also be rewarded for completing certain character-specific tasks prior to or during the encounter!
While the encounters are built to work on Glyfi Scouts, they can be interpreted to work with any system with similar flexibility or by using the Glyfi Scouts encounter sheet to track social elements and using your preferred system to track skill checks.
STEM Station made for Glyfi Scouts, but usable on any tabletop RPG system!
STEM Station is set up with tools to play as part of Glyfi Scouts, however, this setting can work for any system.
If playing with Glyfi Scouts, it is framed to be part of that adventure set and comes with print-and-play tokens and pre-filled encounter sheets needed for playing with the Glyfi system.
To outfit for other systems, you would need to create your own tweaks to the encounter sheets, but, other than that, the story, plotlines, and NPCs are all able to drop into any system for a fun adventure in the tabletop RPG system of your choice!
The STEM Station game setting includes:
- 8 fun locations
- 10 engaging NPCs
- 3 flexible encounters
- Game-unique artwork on every location/character page combo
- A chain of awesome plot hooks
- A map of STEM Station
- 3 science themed Glyfi glyphs (including 1 new ones)
- Filled in Glyfi Scouts power tracker guide
- Print and play glyph token sheet
- Bonus coloring pages
Keep an eye out for more adventure!
