This is a Tabletop Roleplaying Game (TTRPG) based on The Black Hack, a rules-light Old School Renaissance (OSR) fantasy game with some modern elements. Adapted for one-shot games and convention play, the game can also run a full campaign from first to tenth level. Play the game whole cloth or pull out modular ideas and sub-systems to use in other RPGs. Elements include:
- Simple “roll under” system that is flexible and elegant
- Player-facing mechanics that puts the action in the players hands
- “Roll and Keep” system for damage that allows variance without huge swings typical in most exploding dice systems
- Armor as damage reduction instead of hit reduction
- Usage dice to make resource management easier and more fun
- Innovative time measurement and random encounter system that allows for choices that build tension and allow players to “push their luck”
- Effort based skill system allowing binary tests to have more weight
- Fun mini game for treasure acquisition that gives players more choices and allows sessions to have a “winner” without causing PVP problems
Price: $3.00
