What it is about

This is a rough and ready rules-lite solo roll and write game of dungeon exploration. Use a full set of polyhedral dice to: Hunt for treasure! Kick down doors! Narrowly avoid traps! Fight monsters! Bribe monsters!! Hire monsters?! Give yourself a fighting chance by using Amulets and Blessings. Gain experience and Level up… if you live long enough. And if it all gets too much run away screaming. All on a single print and play page. Warning, this game is old school, in the sense you will die… a lot. But that’s ok as character gen takes less than 30 seconds, with 216 starting combinations you’ll be back in the action in no time. The whole thing is just 369 385 425 471 words and two tables. The dungeon exploration part of this game is a super condensed hack of the amazing Four Against Darkness by Andrea Sfiligoi (buy that game!). The combat system was inspired by 36-word Solo Dungeon by Anthony Hobday (36 words of solo dungeon crawl perfection). Note: I'm still playing testing this so there will be regular updates as I spot typos, come up with new ideas and remove bad ideas.
