In Single Unique Power, roll dice and pull words from a pot to create an exciting world and its superpowered inhabitants!

Single Unique Power is a 23-page, cast-building, setting-creation game inspired by the €œone person, one power€ trope popular in superhero media, manga, and anime. Examples include mutations in X-Men, quirks in My Hero Academia, devil fruit powers in One Piece, and nen abilities in Hunter × Hunter. In each of these examples, select characters all have unique, personalized powers.

At the end of this game, you'll have a colorful cast of characters as well as bits and pieces of their backstories. These characters can be enjoyed on their own as you collectively imagine their lives and powers, or you can carry them into future RPGs and stories.

To play Single Unique Power, you'll need:

€¢ Two or more players
€¢ Three six-sided dice
€¢ Writing utensils
€¢ A stack of notecards (3x5€ recommended)
€¢ A pot for collecting and mixing cards, such as a hat or a bowl

Modifications are included for online play.
