With this one, I am approaching at some serious stuff I bear. The tone doesn't have to be heavy, but it can become very dark, depending on the values you choose to start with and the individualism you put in it. You can lighten the tone by reading "when you stay" instead of "when you reach" in the resolution mechanic.
It is totally inspired by Mesopotamians, by Nick Wedig. |

You and your companions have traveled across long distances and faced many trials to come to this point, in the hope that you will be heard by the one person who can grant you what you need. Now you stand at the gate to the Monarch’s throne room, seeking entrance and an audience. All that stands in your way is the Gate Guard, who extends their hand and demands that you leave your weapons at the door. |

This is a role-playing game about a home. In this home lives a family, or a succession of families. You’ll draw the home and watch as it changes with the family over the years.
You will need a good-sized sheet of paper to draw on, pencils, and something on which to record characters (index cards are good). A big pile of 10-sided dice is helpful but not necessary. You'll also need to print and cut out the game cards, or transcribe them onto something.

You are imps: you are puny, cowardly, clumsy, mean, inept, and ambitious. You all serve a powerful demon, and if you impress them they may let you reincarnate as something stronger or smarter or less smelly. You have your eye on a gift for your master, but there's no way in Hell you can get to it on your own. Maybe you could together. First though, you need a plan, and the more complicated it is, the better you look. |

The character creation process is fast and collaborative, producing unique goblins with lots of personality.

It's a character-driven dungeon crawler that works for short, punchy sessions and long campaigns. |
