###
Players take on the role of ruthless bounty hunters, desperate prisoners, or prison guards in way over their heads, all of whom are trying to escape the collapsing prison of Crush Mare.
Crush Mare is a maximum-security prison located deep below Titan’s methane sea, Kraken Mare. The worst criminals in the sector are kept here - mass murderers, serial killers, and political prisoners.
Tectonic activity on Titan was thought to be non-existent...until today. A massive 8.5 earthquake has rocked the facility and sent the prison into total anarchy. Life support has been destroyed beyond repair. Liquid methane is pouring in at every crack. Fires have broken out across the prison and are spreading rapidly.
Prisoners are rioting. Communication with the surface has been lost. The only escape sub is locked behind a biometric key, and the only non-pulverized guard with biometric access hasn’t been seen since the quake. Guards and prisoners are racing against one another to find the Keyed Guard and escape. To worsen matters, bounty hunters have arrived on-scene to transport two highly dangerous criminals from the facility, Edmund and Brace. They will do whatever it takes to escape the prison alive with their bounty, while Edmund and Brace will do anything and everything to prevent their own capture.
Start a timer, because in two hours, the entire facility will implode under the pressure of Titan’s Kraken Mare...
Everything needed to run Crush Mare is free to download - but the Mothership TTRPG is required to play (unless you want to hack it into another OSR system). Download Mothership Player's Survival Guide here:

What is this game? Ive never heard if it. Is PC game, table top? How does it work, play on the internet somehow? I apologize for asking dumb questions. I stumbled on this by accident doing research on the crush depth and other specs of the German Type VII U-boat and the Gato class US submarine. And I came across a link to this. I initially thought the link had to do with subs. But I'm curious what exactly type of game u guys have going here. Thanks and again sorry for dumb questions
Hey CAV_SCOUT! No worries, these aren't dumb questions at all! Without context, I can see this being a very confusing thing to stumble across.
This is an adventure for a sci-fi horror tabletop game called Mothership from Tuesday Knight Games. The rulebook is pay what you want. The game itself is very rules-lite, so there's not a lot of things that Wardens/GMs or players need to remember. It's extremely easy to learn even if a person has no experience playing or running tabletop games. You can play it in person, through a voice client, text/chat app, or through a virtual tabletop website like Roll20.
The idea with these types of modules is that you use them in conjunction with the Mothership core rules in order to give your players an adventure to try to survive or a world to explore.
If you've got any other questions, feel free to ask - I'm happy to answer anything! Alternatively, you can join our Discord community and chat with other players and Wardens/GMs. We're a growing community and we'd love to have you if you're interested!
Hello, Jet McFin!
I really liked this booklet so much that I translated it for myself. Is it possible to share the result openly?
That's awesome! Share away!
Thank you very much for the permission!

Fantastic work! This is amazing stuff.
Thanks for this module! It is very well structured. I'm looking forward to new ones.
I find this pamphlet utterly captivating. It is so simple, yet full of creativity. I couldn't help but vividly imagine all the possible scenarios in my head as I was reading it. Incredible job!
Really cool idea, perfectly in line with Motership tone and mood
Thanks kindly! Hope you enjoy it
