Icarus: A Hot Mothership One-Shot
A downloadable module
You’re on the crew poised to make history on the prototype jump-ship Icarus. Today you’re going to prove that in-system FTL jumps can reduce interplanetary travel to a matter of minutes. Some say shooting a jump drive towards the sun is a bad idea, but Dr. Haste insists her new Coronal Plasma Manifold can harness this risk into free speed! Is this technology impossibly perfect? Will you earn your Innovation Bonus? Can you race across the surface of the sun?
Icarus is a Mothership One-Shot for 2-4 players with high-intensity, a twisted hook and some high-powered loot!
Icarus won several awards in the TripTech2 Game Jam:

I ran Icarus and it's a perfect Mothership one-shot!
If you REALLY, REALLY just have 2-3 hours to play (which I did) I would rank it higher than most of the standard recommended MoSh one-shot pamphlets. Nothing against them at all! but a more investigative focus can threaten to spiral into multiple sessions, whereas Icarus' GO GO GO vibe gets to the meat quickly.
Xiaofang! I’m so glad that it ran so well for you! Thanks for playing!
