FAITH is a roleplaying game in a sci-fi setting, where starfaring alien civilizations race to explore a dangerous, unknown universe.
Please note that this Kickstarter will fund the English edition of the game. The Spanish edition will be released directly to stores at a later date.
The FAITH campaign is one of valiant space travelers, remote uncharted stars and bizarre alien technology. But it’s also a realm of mysterious, invisible forces – the Gods and the outlandish, supernatural powers they grant to those mortals who believe in them.
In FAITH, you can be a star explorer, a soldier, a scoundrel or a mystic believer, using a mix of technology, training and god-given powers to survive the untamed regions of wild space against rival factions, alien perils and ruthless bandits.
FAITH’s gameplay is card based. This is no gimmick: it’s a fully developed and thoroughly tested mechanic where players start each scene with a hand of cards to affect the outcome of every confrontation. The system offers room for nuance and strategy, and players can explore different angles to find the one that better fits their play style.
The Core Book is a comprehensive compendium of the lore and mechanics of FAITH. It is the centerpiece of FAITH, and it will allow you and your friends to play bold adventures in a unique universe.
It’s an excellent entry point into the Universe of FAITH and the perfect way to expand your previous adventures if you are a veteran.
The book covers the rules and mechanics of the game, the setting and story of the universe, and everything in between. Beautifully illustrated, it will allow you to dive into a sci-fi setting with political intrigue, high octane action and strategical gameplay.
