You are the pilot of humanity's third-ever faster-than-light ship reaching into interstellar space, ready to explore the great, dark unknown.
Something malfunctioned. The stars are wrong. And through the window you can see an old, dusty planet, from which a beam of light emerges to engulf your ship, and an alien presence integrates through your systems. Your gut lurches as you lose and regain consciousness; now you are standing in a hall of groaning, rusty engines, a dead creature lying on the floor before you, old and dry. A burst of pain as a metallic arm retreats from your head, having implanted a cybernetic module in your brain. Through it, these old automated systems speak to you: “A new zookeeper has been acquired.“
Menagerie of the Void is a storytelling game for one player. You play as the keeper of an ancient zoo planet, created by a long-gone society and still operating. The automatic machines do most of the work, but they require a sentient zookeeper to make some of the decisions—and you were kidnapped to do just that. This is the story of how you were compelled to try and eventually failed, as many have before you.
