Transgender Deathmatch Legend

You are a Transgender Deathmatch Legend! You built your legend with a tapestry of broken glass, bloody fists and banging slams. You put the HRT in hurt and put the hurt on anyone who tries you. Tonight you’re going to smash your way across Slamchester cause someone owes you some fucking money! You went through two burning tables for a promoter and they’ve been ducking your calls for months, it’s time to settle things hands on. They heard you’re coming and will try and stack the deck, stop you from getting where you need to be, but just remember who you are, remember what you can to, and go get your fucking money.

Transgender Deathmatch Legend is a hexcrawl beat-em-up designed for two players. You’ll need a deck of cards to play, with combat resolved through a trick-taking game, and this book. The game is aggressively queer, overflowing with trans rage, and inspired by wrestling and fighting games.

By default this is a two player game, one player plays the Protagonist, they say what they do in any scene and play cards to try and win in combat. The other player will play the Facilitator, playing every other character, in and out of combat.

Actual Play

Transgender Deathmatch Legend was featured on Party of One. Kayla, one of the games creators, joins Jeff Stormer tell the story of the Death Clown Pain-liachi.
