BIND Rules by Andonome
bindrpg.itch.io
Fold, cut, & bind with FLOSS.

With not enough space on the table for the gadgets, snacks, and flailing appendages, it’s time to make the rules smaller.

To make things truly minimalist, I’ve made the rulebook with the assumption that people have a character sheet in front of them, so they’ll see stats (and a couple of rules-hints, like the XP costs for Attributes).

If anyone has printer handy, I’d love to hear how clear the folding instructions are (they’re written with the assumption that you have the printed page in front of you, and only need to make sense in this context).

    I couldn’t make the downloads work in my phone but visited the Gitlab pages to make it work.

    It appears that (some parts of?) this is available in English and in German, which would be perfect for me.

    Would this be suited to playing with kids, too?

      Thanks for letting me know!

      We only have the tiny core rules translated right now, and the character sheet.

      Would this be suited to playing with kids, too?

      The system is just 2D6 + Attribute + Skill [ + Equipment sometimes ]. Should be fine for kids who are okay with small sums.

      The books have one or two spots of harsh language.

      I’ve just playtested and released a oneshot module. If you have any questions about running it, let me know!

        Thank you! Idont know when I will be in a position to really play this, but it’s now on my list!

        One more question - is there a simple way to just download a bunch of pdfs if I don’t want to go visit my local printer, as you recommend in every readme?
