As Below, So Above

You are Breakers, disparate rebel leaders condemned to mine a magic-enhancing mineral which feeds imperial pursuits. Work together to destroy the machinations of The Crown and make your escape. Compete for control to ensure your Faction’s success and initiate your uprising in the Life Above.

Chain×Link (pronounced “chain link”) is a semi-cooperative dungeon defying roleplaying game using minimal but evocative rules to facilitate the story of captured rebel leaders exploiting tools of tyranny to achieve victory for one of their Factions.
