(Kickstarter) #ZineQuest2022 - Notorious - A Solo RPG Zine

From Jason Price, the author of Last Sentinels and A Complicated Profession comes the Kickstarter for Notorious, a RPG 'zine for one player.

From the Kickstarter:
Play to tell stories of the Nomads; notorious bounty hunters who strike fear among the scum and villainy of the universe and follow the dubious code of the Nomad's Guild.

In the midst of an intergalactic war, you'll take on a lucrative contract from one of six factions. The job is simple: bring the target back, dead or alive—no disintegrations.

There are also two ways to play NOTORIOUS, depending on how you want to record your Nomad's story:
  • ARCADE MODE: a fast-playing mode where you write basic notes on a single player sheet to track your attributes and encounters and simply roll dice to resolve combat and events.  A full games playing this way takes around 1-2 hours.
  • STORY MODE: a more relaxed mode where you create and write a short story as you play, responding to the questions and prompts you're presented with during each encounter. You'll still roll dice and it may help to write basic notes on the player sheet, but the game can last as long as your story does.
$7 for the pdf, $13 for the physical copy, and $31 for a "Deluxe" Edition, but beware of UK shipping charges.
