A Fantastic Journey to Mars will be a role-playing scenario with a built-in rules system based on Risus. You can play this game in an evening, or stretch it into several sessions. It can also be played with or without a GM.

The players control a group of Victorian-era adventurers in a Jules Verne-style story of planetary romance. They begin in the marvelous Steel Sphere, en route to Mars. What happens next is up to them.

The game will be played with six-sided dice. Each character sheet will include an explanation of the rules, so you can just hand each player one sheet of paper and they have everything they need to play.

This makes A Fantastic Journey to Mars an ideal convention game.
