familiar field trip

You are a wonderful little creature and the whole village loves you

(Lie!)

You are devoted only to serving your master and would never get up to any mischievous plots

(Lie!)

When you go out on the town with your fellow familiars, you are respectful of your surroundings and play well with others

(Lie!)

You are a dastardly little creature surely up to no good

(Truth!)

In Familiar Field Trip, you play as a witch's familiar out on the town with your friends (enemies?). You choose from one of five species - cat, crow, fox, raccoon, or toad - who each have their own specialties and three ways to customize (with 12 different potential builds for each familiar type!). Each familiar rolls from one of 20 secret objectives that they get big bonus points if they complete for their master. 

Players take turns rolling for locations and location features, which means every session will be different! There are 12 locations and 20 features to generate from. 

While out on the town, familiars take turns using a host of moves on a token system to cause havoc and mayhem. Destroy your surroundings, scare villagers, complete the location challenge, and just generally be up to no good. Rack up mischief points, steal collectibles, and try to get as many points as possible so you can come out on top! 

Familiar Field Trip is a competitive game! There will be a winner, and it's your job to try and achieve that! The different moves available for familiars allow you to form alliances and work together, or sabotage each other so only you can get what you want. 

To play you'll need a set of dice and 2-5 players. This is a one session game that takes 2-3 hours to play. You can designate one player as the Herald and have them guide the rolls and villagers, or work collaboratively to decide how the story goes.
