(Kickstarter) Snomes: A Quirky RPG Zine

ZineQuest on Kickstarter has plenty of cool concepts, but I would be remiss not to mention Snomes, a zine about magical snowy-gnomes and dangerously stupid situations.


Snomes is a mini tabletop role-playing game with a focus on magic and wintery gnomes. With its D6 based system, anyone with a standard six sided die can quickly jump in. Making it a great role-playing system for new players. Snomes also uses a unique mechanic called “Reckless Reactions”. These Reactions take place whenever a player rolls a 1 on their die. This causes them to use random spells, for better or for worse, creating constant chaos and laughter in every role-playing session.

Imagine you are trying to jump across a river and you fall asleep mid-jump. Or you are talking to a shopkeeper and accidentally shoot a fire ball at them. Maybe you are trying to sneak into a castle, but instead you scream at the top of your lungs. Reckless Reactions will keep you on your toes and make for hilariously stupid situations.

Five bucks for the pdf, ten for the pdf+hard copy, with higher pledge levels for other stuff.
