Playlist Dungeon

On the other side of the Sound Barrier is the SoundGarden, home of the Soundians. Each is a living embodiment of a song. 

You are a Soundian adventurer, delving into Playlist Dungeons where ancient threats and discarded songs guard ancient media and lost sounds. You can perfect your song or maybe get rich if you play it right. If not, you might just fade away forever and become a lost song. 

Playlist Dungeon is a micro-game of musical dungeoneering for 1-4 adventurers and a DJ. You build characters by playing songs and using them to determine your Tone, Groove, and Lyric. Other players listening determine your Hooks, special traits that you can use in play. 

DJs (ok, ok, GMs) prepare their "Five Song Dungeons", playlists that are used as inspiration to define themes and inhabitants.

All of this musicality is tied together with a simple "Action Roll" pool system that gets you riffing on the action.

Use any genre or style of music you want to have wild musical adventures with your friends. Just 1 page of rules (with GM material on the back) to get started.

Also watch here for additional free playlist dungeons that you can use! We encourage you to create and share your own hacks and playlist dungeons!

Join the jam and share any hacks or dungeons you've made in the jam "Revenge of the Mixtape"!
