Weird Fiction: Core Rules

Weird Fiction is a simple rules system for role-playing games. It allows players to quickly develop a set of unique characters and then provides straightforward rules that allow players to focus on the story.

When playing Weird Fiction RPGs, players don’t need to worry about tracking abilities, health points or counting ammo. They just need to think about their own character’s motivations, relationships, and role in the dramatic and exciting story that you, as a group, will uncover together!

This core ruleset does not come with a scenario to play. You can either play your own scenario, or download the free scenario, Trouble in Shadywood High - a high-school horror.
