Party First

Mechanically, Party First is a d6 based roll and keep style system designed for narrative storytelling in a pulp horror world. It is inspired by a variety of 80s classics and modern hits including, but not limited to Red Dawn, Rocky IV, From Russia With Love, Ice Station Zebra, The Thing, Poltergeist, The Fly, and Stranger Things.

Here in the TWILIGHT WORLD of Party First, however, your perspective has shifted. Here, players take on the roll of various citizens of the USRA (United Socialist Republic Alliance), the continent spanning communist nation of this world. In the TWILIGHT WORLD, history has played out as though a dark mirror of our own. Events may be similar. People may echo those you’ve heard of. But this is not our world. Here, the monsters are real.

In Party First, the players must not only navigate the murky political waters of a 1980s where the Long War that devastated Europa and toppled the empire of the Rus to bring the USRA to power and the decades long Twilight War still rages, but they must also do so while surviving the onslaught of eldritch horrors, cruel experiments, and atomic abominations that hover at the fringes of the known world. In this world, bureaucracy may be as deadly as the monsters.
