Shadows Over Sol 2e

Shadows Over Sol Second Edition

A future of hard sci-fi and horror...

Two hundred years from now what should be the shining beacon of the future is instead cloaked in conspiracy and horror. Humankind has expanded throughout the solar system, and there it has discovered mysteries older than humanity.

The culture has shattered into myriad subcultures; nation-states are the hollow shells of what they once were. Corporations and other groups wage small-scale wars in the streets or in space. Bioengineered horrors left over from these conflicts stalk the hulls of ruined stations and abandoned colonies.

But for an enterprising team willing to brave the horrors, there’s always a profit to be made.

Shadows Over Sol 2e is the definitive hard science fiction horror RPG. Powered by the Saga Machine system, this second edition provides everything you need to build a future worth dying for:

  • A System in Chaos: Explore a fully realized Sol system, from the searing mines of Mercury to the frozen silence of the Oort Cloud.
  • Adaptable Horror: From psychological thrillers to high-octane “bug hunts,” the system supports the full spectrum of sci-fi horror.
  • Hard Science, High Stakes: Rules for engineering and hacking that feel grounded and tactical.
  • Keep Them Guessing: Multiple GM “truths” ensure that even the most veteran players will never know what’s truly lurking in the dark.
