Powered by Perilous Pamphlets: Less is four times more TTRPG

In the run-up to Gen Con, four indie TTRPG Publishers have entered… well, a sort of friendly competition or competitive alliance on Kickstarter.

Philip Reed Games, Crumbling Keep, Headcheese Productions, and Egg Embry Publishing are all in the Powered By Perilous Pamphlets promotion. While this means each wants to hit their funding goal, they’re also all promoting each other’s campaigns from their stories.

Let’s take a look!

TTRPG pamphlets?

RPG pamphlets are compact yet powerful tools for tabletop roleplaying games, condensing thrilling adventures, detailed maps, innovative game mechanics, evocative settings, and even entire game systems into a single sheet of paper. These accessible guides offer Game Masters a wealth of one-page inspiration for one-shot sessions or as enhancements to ongoing campaigns. With clever layouts and imaginative designs, RPG pamphlets showcase the creative potential of a single page in enriching the tabletop gaming experience.

All the campaigns are over in about a week. Small, but fast!
