31 Floors Up - A Horror Elevator One-page RPG
The Game:
Based loosely on the iconic Roblox horror games, 31 floors up is an existential horror game about people stuck on an elevator to hell. How do you survive to reach the final floor… and freedom?
What I Like About This One:
This is the most direct use of the screw-you mechanics I’ve ever put together. If you fail horribly at a thing, you don’t decide how YOU die - you screw up so bad it gets someone else killed. I feel like this really reflects some of the best horror tropes, where people doing the tropes correctly end up dying, but the people who mess up really badly have to watch their best friends be horribly murdered.
What I’d Do Differently:
I should have included an option for creating a new character in the levels themselves for when you die so you can get back in the action, but also have a secretly-determined Imposter score that determines how much (if at all) the new character is actually an eldritch horror in a people-suit.
