Hey y'all, I'm Rath. I've been making tabletop games for ages, but WINTERGREEN is the first one I've shared publicly. It's a tiny tabletop RPG designed to fit a ton of ideas entirely in a tin of mints, alongside all the dice it needs. I'm gonna be releasing three more flavors over time, and while they'll all have different themes and focuses they'll be cross-compatible and each expand on the world presented in the others. I'd love it if you checked it out!

I really like the idea of the game fitting into such a small space!

Thanks! It was definitely a challenge, finding the right mix between brevity and substance. Eventually I settled on a really simple rules system without a lot of built-in depth, but a lot of variety in characters and quests. That way players running it as-is find themselves doing interesting things each game, and anyone taking inspiration from the system for their own games gets as much interesting material as I could fit.
