A love letter to Shadowdark, Cairn, Knave, Into the Odd, and many more...
Darkhall Dungeon is a fantasy roleplaying game reminiscent of other old school revival games. Only now with even more of the work of running and playing games stripped away. Leaving instead more opportunities for collaborative storytelling and fun.
A PDF of the game is available for FREE (or PWYW).
A print version of the game is also available from Lulu (see the itch.io page for the link)
Some features of the game include:
+ A polyhedral dice system (d20, d12, d10, d6, & d4) with a roll over action resolution system focused on 6 action types: know, manipulate object, move self, overpower, purchase, and resist
+ A simple combat system that is easy to run but that provides plenty of meaningful tactical choices
+ A high/low damage system that removes the need to keep track of hit points
+ A simple magic system with strange consequences for failing to cast 1 of 60 different spells
+ A simple inventory management system and weapons that feel unique from one another
+ Multiple random tables and monster profiles for creating your own adventures
+ Original illustrations by the author to inspire creativity (no A.I., ever)
