What is Daisy Chainsaw?
Once upon a time in a normal high school...

DAISY CHAINSAW is a game of magical girls, cosmic threats, and saving the world one episode at a time. Players roleplay as magical girls—teenagers with special powers living a double life. The transformation sequence is the split between a Main Character being a regular person and someone truly magical. The transformation sequence turns them into their magical persona, strong enough to deal with the big bad of the season. What happens to an MC when they transform can easily transfer to their everyday lives, whether that is a permanent scar or the horrifying ordeal of discovery.

If you're familiar with magical girl anime where violence is both question and answer, you will feel right at home in Daisy Chainsaw.


How do you play?
With a handful of six sided dice and another handful of friends, with one acting as the Disaster Master (DM). You pick the weapons your character uses, the spells they can cast, abilities they can use, and start blasting.
I didn't do my math homework, so I don't know how many weapon combinations there are, but when you pick two out of ten weapons, it's probably a lot.

OH MY GOD
YOU FINISHED?!

Bloody interesting premise! If you are handing out review copies, I would be quite glad to feature it in my Youtube channel. Is there an email where I can contact you?

Fantastic game! Though I have a question on a thing I noticed. The bat's first trait and one of its tier one abilities are the same. Are you meant to choose one of the traits for the weapon and the ability is the way of getting the second?

Oh no! That’s a mistake, thanks for pointing it out! I’ll have an update soon.

the correct ability text is:

Bell Ringer - Harm

Make an attack and if successful, the enemy is Stunned for 1 round.

Okay that makes sense! Like I said you've got a great game here and my partner has been loving every bit of it, hopefully we can play it soon.
