My new solo TTRPG is out!

HARDCASE is a light-weight solo TTRPG about trying to make it to payday in space. If you're a fan of grimy sci-fi and hate corporations (or just really like Mothership, 2400, and World of Dungeons), there's a lot for you to love with it!

You can grab it half-off for the next week <3

You and your pals have been hired to investigate strange occurrences in a famously haunted apartment complex. Are visiting witches to blame, or cantankerous ghosts? Did rent hikes get the poltergeist in apartment 14 in a tizzy? Well, it's up to you to find out!

Grab it for $1 today:

Starting a new 24xx project because the idea of it won't leave me alone.

Welcome to a timeline where Spirit Halloween Scarytown just bought your space colony and it's only a matter of time before you either get passage out of it or have to start selling 'sexy killer cyborg' costumes to more well-to-do space mercenaries.

Small Spotlight: Forbidden Coffeehouse

Forbidden Coffeehouse is a pamphlet sized rpg running on the 24XX system. Your crew are patrons at a vampiric coffeehouse, where there's more than just coffee in those cups.

I played this game mid 2024 and had a blast! A werewolf influencer and vampire chef saved a group of kids from a bored elder entity.

I really enjoy the 2400 ttrpgs. It's a super minimalist one‐page rules system, and there are a lot of really cool scenarios on offer. Want to play Fallout? That's Nuclear Family. Want to explore an anomalous area like in Anihilation or STALKER? Try The Zone. How about the 1999 hit movie Matrix? That's Codebreakers. Or Junior Hybrid Battle Cryptids, where you play a TMNT style group of animal heroes. And you can even mix and match the different settings like in Munchkin, so my spacefaring robot could learn some wizard skills if I want. But the true art is to boil a scenario down to 2‐3 sentences and still get you hooked.

"In New Coke City, if you want to give someone the finger, you have to jailbreak your cyberarm first" yes, thank you, I'm sold! (Resistors)

Super Unnatural: Community Copies Added!

I've added 10 community copies of my fun spooky investigative game, Super Unnatural! Feel free to take one, but please leave a comment or review if you're able. =)

[theresattrpgforthat]

Last year I wrote a quick rundown of three game systems: Powered by the Apocalypse, LUMEN, and Forged in the Dark, and this year I'm hoping to do it again! Help me to decide which systems to talk about!

[dungeonofthedragon]

Hey there, I'm Sam! I make a lot of little games, but since it's the spooky season I'll highlight my spookiest offerings:

Nowhere Home is a game about sad, formerly human monsters whose only home is each other.

Solve mysteries in a haunted apartment complex with Super Unnatural!

Play a ghost defending your home from threats in 24XX CEMETERY.

And stay tuned for more on Seasons of Magic- my upcoming, award-winning game of travelling witches healing the world!

Okay, I'm doing that thing again where I ask many indie ttrpg creators to post their stuffs down below this post for people to see and maybe I might even make videos on some of them!

I'm mostly doing this right now because, ya know, stupid Elon shit, but whatever.

Anyway, go post them now!

Sources used for my Assassins game

This is a 4 page 24xx game that I hope to finish within the week. A little bit of history for a game about one shots. This subject is covered in way too much sensationalism and so I decided to dig into real sources for it

Small Spotlight: Flesh Like Marble Blood Like Flame

Inspired by Vampire the Masquerade, this game has all the drama with far fewer rules to remember!

[thydungeongal]

Do you know of any good rules-lite Blorbo factories? Something with lots of options and ideas/inspiration without being crunchy. The best I can think of the 24XX games but I'm curious if there are more.

Hmmm, I think The Magical Land of Yeld might count as one! It has a bit of bite to it, so it's not on the rules-lightest side, but it is comparatively simple compared to many other games in the fantasy adventure game niche, and it has tons of character options. Character creation is very simple, but once the party basically graduates from their initial adventure they get to pick a heroic job. There are eight heroic jobs, and once characters progress far enough in their quest they get to switch to advanced jobs, but it's also possible to switch between heroic jobs. It's very similar to the Final Fantasy job system in that certain benefits carry over from previous jobs while others are only "on" while you are in a job.

It's also a really fun game. The first edition is free as far as I know and the 2nd edition can be purchased here:

I think FIST is also something of a rules light blorbo factory. It's based on a simplified "no moves and no playbooks" version of the PbtA framework and character creation basically involves taking two Traits and smashing them together. While it's possible to roll for Traits, it also makes an allowance for players choosing them, and there are literally thousands of possible combos.
