Hello!
I'm recruiting six players who would like to play through the first playtest scenario, learning the rules together. The first day the scenario is available is August 1, so we will start on August 3, using pregen characters so that we can get started right away. We will be following society playtest rules, and the game will be reported as a society game. I will leave recruitment open for 48 hours, or until I have 9 applicants, after which I will make my choices to put together a party. It's OK that you won't be familiar with the rules when we start; we'll be learning together!
Recruitment is here!

Because this is a repeatable playtest is it ok to play in more than one game at the same time?

Yes!
There are no organised play rules for SF2 at this time, so you can in fact do anything you want (as your GM allows). I'd still recommend following the gist of SFS/PFS org play rules, just to avoid total anarchy :-)

Gameday XIII Both low-tier Starfinder Specials "The End Awakens" are still open if anyone is interested.
The End Awakens sign up.

From the FAQ:
Will there be Organized Play playtest involvement?When the Starfinder Second Edition Playtest launches, visit starfinderplaytest.com and download the Starfinder Playtest Tracking Sheet. Each time you play one of the Starfinder Second Edition Playtest Adventures or Starfinder Second Edition Playtest Scenarios listed on this sheet, check off the associated box. By checking off these boxes, you’ll unlock rewards in our Organized Play campaigns! Earn Achievement Points in Starfinder Society (first edition), gain access to exciting alien ancestries from the wider galaxy in Starfinder Society (first edition) and Pathfinder Society (second edition), and gain access to campaign-exclusive backgrounds themed to the events of these adventures in Starfinder Society (second edition). No need to select which rewards you want most—you get them all!
For the purpose of Starfinder Society (first edition), these adventures are considered repeatable, meaning players and GMs will earn Achievement Points every time they play or run them. Characters do not earn in-game rewards such as credits or XP for these adventures.
In order to get the SFS1 AcP, your GM must report the game with the players PFS number (note that character numbers are not needed, since they don't exist yet). You can also check off a box on the chronicle sheet that comes with the playtest adventures - that unlocks the special boons for SFS1 and PFS2.
So you get:
- SFS1 AcP
- SFS1 boons
- PFS1 boons
- SFS2 boons

Now recruiting for:
A Cosmic Birthday
A nascent cosmic entity stirs deep within one of the Pact Worlds planets. To aid the god’s birth, its most devoted followers search the Ghost Levels of Absalom Station for a sufficient power source—a strange pocket dimension existing alongside the hub of the Pact Worlds. As the entity’s emergence sends ripples across space time, a group of heroes becomes trapped in the Ghost Levels! With dangerous creatures and ominous power surges threatening the station, the heroes must team up with the residents of Little Akiton to investigate these horrifying new foes, stop their meddling—and stay alive!
A Cosmic Birthday is a complete Starfinder Second Edition Playtest adventure for 1st-level characters written by Jenny Jarzabski, and features fan-favorite Starfinder creatures updated to Second Edition, all-new cosmic horrors, and a mix of classic dungeon crawling and narrative-rich sandbox adventures. This adventure is designed to introduce the Starfinder Second Edition Playtest rules, giving players like you a chance to shape the new edition through feedback surveys about your playtest experience! It also takes place during a pivotal moment in Starfinder history—even if you miss the playtest window, you won’t want to miss the adventure!
Written by: Jenny Jarzabski
Note that this is a full-length adventure, not a scenario or one-shot. Characters start at first level but will level up. It has three chapters, and counts as three adventures for Society playtest credit.
Sign up >HERE<!
Also recruiting for Shards of the Glass Planet.
A Starfinder Second Edition Playtest adventure designed for 1st-level characters.
For millennia, Birnam’s Bubble has been a planet untouched by outsiders, fully encapsulated in an impenetrable shield of unknown energy and protected by powerful automated defenses. Through this barrier, explorers and surveyors have glimpsed pristine settlements, verdant flora, and inexplicable magical emanations—yet no fauna or citizens populate the world’s surface.
As in many other parts of the galaxy, the Drift Crisis changed everything. Now, the energy barrier surrounding Birnam’s Bubble cracks like shattering glass, and shards of this solidified energy have begun to fall through the atmosphere to the planet’s surface, causing significant destruction. Enter the breach and uncover the secrets of the lost civilizations of Birnam’s Bubble before they're lost forever!
Welcome to the Starfinder Playtest! You can directly shape the future of the Starfinder Roleplaying Game by participating in a fun and rigorous playtest period using the Starfinder Playtest Rulebook and one of several playtest adventures—including Starfinder Playtest Scenarios! Each Starfinder Playtest Scenario is a short, single-session adventure designed to be played in 2–3 hours and written by a member of the Starfinder Team.
