What is this game and who is it for?

On the surface, QUEERZ! is a Super Sentai power fantasy against bigotry.

In this universe, Ignorance is an evil, almost alien, substance that appears as dark crystals — which you can smash, shatter, and obliterate. Your Super Sentai moves against Ignorance and its followers range from classic martial arts and energy weapons to whatever makes you unique as a person: your art, your passions, and your style.

However, QUEERZ! is also about understanding ignorance and its causes, and about reaching out to each other, especially to those you see as enemies.

As a hero you don’t only stop Ignorance, you talk to your enemies and discover what made Ignorance take root in their hearts. Perhaps, if they’re up to it, you can help them heal. This is reflected in the Inner Space, a hidden dimension of thoughts and feelings the Queerz can access with their Rainbow Empathy.

About the City of Mist system

City of Mist is based on the story-driven Apocalypse Engine, but it takes a step further into narrative gaming by introducing several new features:

  • Rich character motivations built around compelling Mysteries and Identities. Follow your characters’ themes to gain their benefits and evolve them or go against them to discover new aspects with a unique non-linear character evolution system.

  • Know no limits for powers, abilities, traits, gear, or allies. Everything in City of Mist is described by free text tags, so you can create exactly the character you want.

  • Full-on narrative engine, with an edge. Every action you take in the game is based on the interpretation of your tags, using moves to deliver dramatic outcomes that drive the story forward.

  • Status spectrums, a new system of ‘narrative damage’. You can use descriptors to create any imaginable setback or advantage so that every action in the fiction, in and out of combat, can have lasting gameplay implications.
