What’s most interesting about this RPG are the number of options: GM led games, co-op games, and solo RPGs, all are possible with this system.

I already know this year will be a deluge of great content and I can’t wait to check out all of the zines! [I]Egg Embry participates in the OneBookShelf Affiliate Program and is an Amazon Associate.
