Time & Temp

Adventure awaits you in the exciting field of temporary staffing!

Time & Temp is a game of time travel and underemployment for 3 to 5 players written by Epidiah Ravachol, author of the ENnie-award winning Dread. 

Employed by Marigold Staffing and working at Browne Chronometric Engineering, Inc., you travel through the ages actualizing solutions for the anomalies and paradoxes that threaten all of existence. You are reality's only line of defense in the war between the rigidity of causality and freewill. And your only reward is the hard earned satisfaction of a job well done (plus $11.50 an hour and a modest health package including comprehensive immunizations for history's most prolific diseases).

"For sheer delightfulness of presentation and concept, it will be hard to beat Epidiah Ravachol's Time & Temp, in which you play temp employees of an agency dedicated to protecting / interfering with the timestream....The system for accumulating temporal anomalies is hilariously recondite. My favorite detail is the session wrap-up, in which each PC undergoes and employee evaluation and is measured for the attainment of ongoing professional goals."  - Robin D. Laws 

"Overall, Time and Temp is a game which is innovative without being po-faced, with mechanics which mesh perfectly with the setting." -Simon Rogers

"Everyone really enjoyed this game and I whole-heartedly recommend it to everyone. We played it on the less serious end of the scale, ghostbustery, but I'm sure it would work equally well for Dr Who or Sapphire & Steel....[B]uy one, now, or yesterday even." - GB Steve
