BAGS

This game is being worked on under the new name, the Entropy Engine.  You are viewing the old version.

BAGS, or the Build-A-Game System, is an incredibly lightweight tabletop game system built for a couple of kids who want to run their own games. This was made to help foster creativity, teamwork, and imagination - all while being super easy to plan and run. It turns out it's great for anyone looking for a quick pick-up game, too! It fits on one page and doesn't need a character sheet - a scrap of paper or a notes app and a few d6 are all you need, though it can be expanded to have a bit more depth if you'd like.

Tags replace all stats, attributes, traits, and circumstances. When characters want to do anything, they roll six-sided dice based on the tag, and see what happens!

This 1 page RPG includes:

• Basic rules that are easy enough for an 8-year-old with ADHD to run a game.
• Expanded Tags Optional Rules
• Expanded Dice Pool Optional Rules
• Expanded Mechanics Optional Rules
• A phone-friendly PDF!

Add or take away whatever you want, it's your game after all!
