Let’s face it: dueling is sexy. But do you know what’s sexier than dueling? That slower, higher tension duel that occurs before any damage is done—before any blow is even struck. The duel of word and wit, of casual motion and threatening maneuvers.

I Have the High Ground is a short collaborative tabletop roleplaying and storytelling game for 2 players about that kind of duel. Players are also encouraged to think expansively about what constitutes a duel. It's wonderful if you are knights, fencers, or Jedi with your blades crossed for sport or mortal combat. But what if you were hackers, trying to speedily exploit your way into control of a contested server? What if you were a murderer and the aggrieved loved one avenging their victim? What if you’re assassins and ex-girlfriends, or you’re in a boxing match, or a bar fight, or even just a school talent show? Pick your weapons, push the limits, and whenever justifiable: flourish your capes.
