Mages & Maniacs $5.00

Mages & Maniacs: $5.00
Publisher: Dylan McClure

Mages & Maniacs is a zany tabletop roleplaying game set in a modern fantasy setting. This game is designed to incentivize creativity, roleplaying, and fun, with a simple design that just... works! Dark wizards will be facing off against uzi-wielding housecats - this should tell you what you're getting into here. 

Mages & Maniacs utilizes six-sided dice only. Pilfer those dusty board games in the attic, if you don't have any on hand! The simplicity of the gameplay style mixed with the usage of a single dice for all rolls creates an experience that is very pick-up-and-play, good for anything from quick one-shots to multi-year campaigns!


Also included: rules for hardcore & dangerous play, for daredevils and those used to the insta-death scenarios of early 80s RPGs.

The thesis statement of this game is as follows: Fun Comes First.
