SCRAP!
A downloadable solo game
SCRAP! is a 20-30 minute solo game where you explore a wasteland scavenging for SCRAP to sell at the next settlement. Along the way you'll fill in a small hex map, avoid Night Goblins, and be up to your neck in SCRAP!
At the end of each run, tally up the value of your SCRAP share it with others on instragram or twitter using #SCRAPSCORE.
My personal High Score is : 89
v1.3
- SCRAP! is available in Spanish! Huge thanks to Daniel Hernández for translating!
- Minor tweaks to text, but nothing that impacts rules.
- Updated cover artwork.
Materials Need:
- 2 standard d6
- 1 Pencil and Eraser
- 1 Character Sheet
- 35 minutes to read rules and complete first run!
I created SCRAP! as a self imposed 24hr game jam. I wanted to see if I could go from concept to "finished" in under a day. I didn't quite make the mark, go over by a few hours, but I still consider it a success. I learned a ton from this exercise!
Some omitted ideas that may be added if there is a large interest:
- Daily mutations: Gain rerolls, armor, loot roll buffs, etc.
- Collectibles/Achievements: Ways to track certain outcomes and events. Example, collecting 3 Lunar Fragments unlocks ???.
- Wandering Trader: Offers healing services, help navigating, etc. in exchange for your SCRAP.
The cover artwork is a mixture of Public Domain works and my own drawing/embellishing on top. All artwork and writing within is my own.

HeyHo. Cool nice little game ^^
Survived in my first run, sadly with only 27 SCRAP, meh :P
BTW: in the "Event&Outcome - 6" is written "+1 of any currently owned SCRAP". My english is not the best so I added +1 to one of my Scraps. Or is it supposed to be +1 for every SCRAP I own?
After 13 games i finally lived!! Super fun game that I am finding difficult, lol. Great lunch time game.
Hello there!
My name is Mykyta, I am a fellow ttrpg player / content creator from Ukraine.
I've already left a message on your discord, however, decided to attach it here as well.
We've come over the SCRAP! game and found it hilarious! It took us some time to translate and lay out the Ukrainian version. Here comes the question, is it possible to add the Ukrainian translation to the game's itch.io page?
We also would like to add it to the community drivetrhu page as a FREE-to-download, with appropriate credits, of course. Would this also be possible?
Appreciate your work!
Just got done with my first session. Got a score of 7 😢 the shadow beast slashed my head off at day 4. I live journaling my days, makes the game much fun and love the setup of it!!
tough luck! Glad you’re enjoying!
My sister and I LOVE this game and play all the time. Recently, I decided just for fun to create a Secular Christmas version but with all the same mechanics and scrap values just different names (Ex: the night goblin is the grinch).
Today I hit (in complete disbelief!!) a total SCRAP score of 122?! I don’t think I will ever get it again but I just had to share. (I write my scrap with the value it is already multiplied so ignore that)
This is fantastic! Congrats on such a wild score!! I 've never broken 100, this is awesome.
I love the Christmas themed idea! thank you so much for playing and enjoying :)
hehe thank you! I don’t think I’ll ever reach it again, I felt like I was cheating as it was so crazy?! Thank you so much for creating the game! 💚🎄✨
i love this game! its really fun. my character died in just 3 days after getting mauled by hounds the first day, and getting stabbed by goblins during his final days
yeah, then hounds will get ya! Glad you enjoyed 😁
I've just tried it, it was fun! I've made it through 5 days but I was killed at night by a Stabby gobelin. I got a score of 63, largely gain by a huge scroll on a day where I got 6 lunar fragment and by multiple x2 SCRAP on outcome.
The creativity for creating such a game in 24h is amazing!
This was a lot of fun!! I definitely misread the rules about understanding when I'm rolling more scrap or getting rid of them, that was entirely on me so this may not be the most accurate lol I tried to retroactively do stuff so it's MOSTLY correct... I think.
Either way tho my rolls were consistently high, and Dirk went on a very lucrative scrap journey with some close calls! I'm excited to give this another (proper) shot soon
very fortunate indeed! Many trips to the moonshrine as well :) lookin forward to seeing more runs! There should be an update in the next week or so with some minor tweaks that may help clarify the rules a bit.
Quite a lot of fun!! Though the dice have a love/hate relationship with me.
it would seem so! Though I’m not sure how you’re getting a 0 in your quantity for the SCRAP? Maybe I can clarify a rule?
Another Direquest excellent game! I like! 👍
aye thank you!!
This looks so awesome! I can't wait to try it out. I really want to make my own little solo game and the fact that you did this in around 24 hours is super inspiring to me, really makes me want to create.
I super recommend it! I learned so much in such a short time, it was well worth it.
