Holy heck this is very, very cool! An absolutely elegant and streamlined little game that looks hella fun.
I didn't even mention the overall appearance, which is awesome.
thanks so much!
Tremendous game with excellent style and production value and a setup that carries out the best of the roguelite genre while still feeling like a game that you can tell great stories in.
thank you!!
A great example of maximizing the potential in such small format. Everything needed to play is inside, layed out nicely, crisp and simple. Would also make for a great solo module! A bit light on the "rogue-lite" theme, but other than that it's so well done!
Thanks so much!
Seems like a really fun little game. Bonus points for the booklet format. Makes it pocket sized and easy to play at any time, any place. I also like how there are multiple "resolution mechanics", to pick up depending on what you have available (d5, d20, coins, diceless). Though they are meant to be rolled, I think I would prefer to choose this one specifically. Generally, very nice tables to quickly randomize a game and have a unique experience each time.
Also while it's not mentioned, I think it would be a great fit for some Solo gaming. Find some fitting oracles (or just go with your imagination) and you have a quick and fun RPG solo activity.
One thing I would like to see expanded more is the "rogue-lite" aspect. Maybe more tables for the Boons, plus possibly some different mechanics and or synergies between them, or even more specific mechanics about flaws and curses. Though I understand, it would be tough to fit more in such a pocket game, may be a good idea for an expansion module or new tables.
