Absolute Cinema

When playing Meat Space, the goal should be to tell a memorable and cinematic story together. The rules of the game often encourage Players to build Characters who specialise in different skills and roles. While some Characters may be capable generalists, most spacer crews are made up of individuals who excel in different areas, each with opportunities to shine where nobody else can.

Meat Space is designed to create memorable moments and celebrate the strengths of individual Characters. When your moment arrives, embrace it and enjoy the spotlight. When it is someone else's turn to shine, sit back and enjoy the show. It is perfectly normal for a pair of combat specialists to dominate a firefight, a pilot and mechanic to save the ship, or a suit and legal wizard to talk their way out of a tricky situation. Great stories are built from great scenes, and every Character deserves their moment, but not every Character has to contribute equally to every moment.
