The Arcane Library’s Shadowdark RPG quickstart is over 130 pages long and free.
Kelsey Dionne pitches Shadowdark by saying;
Experience the world’s greatest roleplaying game in a whole new light. Lift your torch, draw your blade, and enter the Shadowdark!
The quickstart is actually two 68-page books; one Player Guide and one Game Master guide. The digests are enough to get running in the Shadowdark and all the way to 3rd level characters.
The free download offers;
- Lost Citadel of the Scarlet Minotaur, a 1st-3rd-level dungeon crawl where characters can delve for legendary loot…
- A classic, hand-drawn adventure map + player-safe JPEG for virtual table tops
- 36 spells, 19 magic items, and 52 monsters
- The four core classes: cleric, fighter, thief, and wizard
- Character creation rules
- A form-fillable character sheet PDF
