The Quest Machine [Free]

The Quest Machine [Free]:

Gather your friends and embark on an epic quest. Classic fantasy sentiment, wrapped in a modern system that rewards quick thinking and improv, but also has some rules, let's call it rules medium. 

A labor of love, inspired by the epic quests of my childhood such as Lord of the Rings, and Waylander. 

This tabletop role-playing game is about sacrificing all to achieve the goal.

Finding small moments of triumph in the dark.
