The release has a learn-as-you-go adventure that allows players to just open up the box, and get their lightsaber and force powers on. The box for 3 to 5 players features pre-generated characters that allows you to have the rules at your fingertips, as well as the dice and materials you need for folks the narrate the game.
This isn’t the full ruleset, it’s an abridged version, and all of it is built directly into the adventure setting up the ability to learn as you play through.
High up the snow-clad slopes of Mount Tellec on the Outer Rim planet Spintir, you and your allies must travel to an ancient temple and rescue the humble scholar Hethan Romund, one of the few individuals still willing to share any knowledge of the fallen Jedi Order. All the while, the game’s mechanics are introduced incrementally as part of the exciting narrative.
For those who’ve never played, Fantasy Flight’s Star Wars RPG uses a custom dice mechanic. These dice feature symbols that show off if you succeed or fail.
The Star Wars: Force and Destiny Beginner Game is scheduled to arrive at retailers in the second quarter of 2015.
