About the Game

The Story So Far…

It’s the 38th century. Earth is legend, long lost to time. Humanity now clings to survival on terraformed Mars — a world ruled by the Pentateuch, five cyber-priests who crushed dissent and built a brutal technocracy.

But rebellion sparked in the shadows.

The Ironseed Movement, a group of exiles, created a virus to dismantle the planetary AI systems and escaped aboard a stolen prototype starship. Their plan: vanish into deep space and wait for the technocracy to collapse. They were never heard from again.

Now, the story continues…

You awaken alone, drifting in a crippled ship. The systems are offline. Weapons: gone. Memory: fragmented. The crew? Scattered — you are jettisoned into deep space under unknown circumstances.

This wasn’t the original ship. It’s a backup, a failsafe — secretly loaded with your crew’s preserved minds in illegal containment vessels, and launched in parallel. A second chance... but barely.

You are the captain. Your first task: recover your crew.

Only together can you rebuild the ship, uncover the truth, and determine what comes next. There’s no clear destination. No home to return to. Just a fragile hope that somewhere out there, life can begin again.

Ironseed: Consensus is a sci-fi RPG of survival, exploration, and rebuilding in the aftermath of escape. Travel procedurally generated star systems, retrieve your lost crew, and forge a new path forward — through debate, disagreement, and ultimately, consensus.

Survival is only the beginning.
