In my quest for ever-easier RPG introductions, I present:
- Choose-Your-Own-Trial is a CYOA[1] where you’re in jail, then on-trial. It introduces the system and gives you a tiny character sheet.
- Induction at the Temple of Beasts is a mini lore-dump in a short story (set after the trial).
- Another CYOA follows, where you hunt an albino basilisk who’s definitely not Moby Dick.
- The ‘Halfshots’ are tiny modules which take about two hours to run.
Everything was made to be printed (so you can score through HP boxes with a pencil) but reading should be fine.
A ‘Choose-Your-Own-Adventure’ book was a short book disguised as a long one, popular in the twentieth century. You make a choice at each paragraph to have the hero fight or flee or whatever by selecting the next paragraph you jump to. ↩︎
