You had me at “[…] a giant genetically-modified Kraken intended to cleanse Earth’s oceans.”. Publisher 3DARTLAB is currently running a Kickstarter campaign for Space Kraken, a rouge-like science-fiction dungeon crawler for 1 - 4 players designed by author Markus Geiger.

“Immerse within a fantastic science-fiction adventure full of strange aliens, quests, and mysteries. You will set up your crew, contend with various enemies and try to claim what you can procure, to upgrade your spaceship and equip and level up your crew. A Crypted Game Master (CGM) breathes life into the game by guiding you through various story lines that develop in parallel. It also administers secret things which are occurring. The CGM consists of scripted printed sheets (CGM SHEETS).

You can handle developments even if you are not able to see the contents of the events it prepares in secret, in a way never previously presented in a game. You will also plan your own space flights and discover worlds which have never been discovered by any human. In space there are also risks, so you will become involved in different types of space combats as well.

This game is made for all RPG, science fiction, and tactical game fans who want to recruit their own crew to escape from Earth and discover the dark systems of the SPACE KRAKEN.” - description by the publisher
