Roller Derby and the messy, though, funny lives of five young women.
Roller Drama is an interactive narrative and a strategic real-time sports game about five young women playing Roller Derby in an oppressive and surveillance-based society.
In Roller Drama you are the mentor and coach of a Roller Derby women’s team of five (the standard in-game team of one jammer and four blockers).
You have to:
live coach during matches, real-time gameplay;
try to be a spiritual, existential guide for this problematic team in their life between matches;
deal with psychological hurdles using the “Battle Go”, turn-based battle on a chess-like board, playing as one of the girls in turn.
