I've been working on a Science Fantasy Hack of the Maze Rats RPG by Ben Milton. Inspired largely by games like Metamorphosis Alpha and Gamma World. My aim was to keep the Maze Rats game unchanged as much as possible, to make it feel like perhaps taking place in the same world as Maze Rats but just in the future.
I was hoping for feedback on the random tables.
- What is confusing?
- What do you hate?
- What do you like?
Most of the setting and general hackery is in the random tables so you can largely skip the other text. Following Maze Rats' lead meant trying to paint a clear picture with very few words (which only enhanced my appreciation for what Ben Milton has accomplished). I relied heavily on tropes but my hope is that it is still interesting and unique.

Been working on polishing this, going through repeatedly, culling the weak entries and replacing them with stronger ones. I'm feeling good about my latest draft that you can find at:

Any feedback is incredibly welcomed as I am going to continue to try to polish this into something hopefully great.
