Welcome to the thrilling world of "Steam Build Riders," a two-player tabletop RPG set in the exhilarating realm of steampunk rally raids. Players become a duo known as "Riders," consisting of a "Driver" who expertly steers a steam-powered vehicle and a "Navigator" who not only handles the armaments but also offers crucial support from the passenger seat. Together, they navigate a story filled with no-holds-barred rally raids, enjoying a narrative where anything goes.

This game is divided into two distinct phases: the 'City Phase, ' where players prepare their machines and depict everyday life in the steampunk city of 'Laminepolis, ' and the 'Rally Phase, ' where they take their custom-built machines to compete in the rally. During the City Phase, players gather custom parts for their machines and experience the outlaw life in a steampunk setting, enjoying a variety of events in Laminepolis. The Rally Phase is filled with challenges as players, in their custom machines, overcome enemy attacks, difficult terrain, and unexpected monster encounters, all through teamwork.

"Steam Build Riders" is a tabletop RPG packed with elements of steampunk, rally raids, and buddy action. Its unique features lie in its simple yet deep racing game mechanics, the freedom of storytelling shaped by outlaw characters, and the randomness of dice rolls.

The game rules are both straightforward and profound. Players customize their machines with parts and race them, using only six-sided dice to create a varied gaming experience for each machine and customization. This leads to a refreshing board game experience that can be enjoyed in just over two hours.

The characters in this game are outlaws, eccentric thrill-seekers who take on the high-stakes rally raids for a chance at quick riches. Their adventures are filled with unexpected happenings, and the game's rules reflect this, requiring frequent dice rolls. The roll of the dice might lead to a heist at the police station for parts or a sudden, high-speed leap of the machine (and the steampunk setting is just the perfect backdrop for these amusing stories). For those who wish to immerse themselves in a narrative that's both free-spirited and rebellious, "Steam Build Riders" is the perfect choice.
