| A Bitter Gambit Regular price: $4.99 Bundle price: $1.83 Format: Watermarked PDF
| A Bitter Gambit is a dice-less swords & sorcery roleplaying game that can be played with just pen and paper, but is much more fun if you throw in a set of poker chips for the players & a suit of cards for the Storyteller. We use Tarot cards for extra fantastical flavour.
A Bitter Gambit replaces the traditional dice rolls with a series of bids against difficulties set by the Storyteller to check how the players’ characters advance through the story. Quick to learn but trickier to master, the system keeps stories – and the conflicts that power them – flowing in almost real time.
2 pages for players, including character creation & play advice
2 pages for GMs (Storytellers) including advice on how to build exciting sessions and r...

| The Sun Also Rises Regular price: $5.00 Bundle price: $1.83 Format: Watermarked PDF
| Imagine an OSR inspired more by Tamora Pierce and Mercedes Lackey than Fritz Leiber and Robert Howard, where kindness pays as much as sharpened steel. The Sun Also Rises is a “romantic fantasy” game, in the sense of being about fantastical stories without too much edge or grime. The world is not a safe place, by any means, but violence and treachery are by no means the only answers. With a simple 3d6+stat mechanic that uses advantage/disadvantage to avoid complicated factors, the story is never derailed by a need to pore over the rules.
