Folklore: A Rules-Light Roleplaying Game
Folklore is a complete rules-light generic roleplaying game designed to be playable after about ten minutes of reading¸ with enough structure to keep your adventures running smoothly. If you and your friends want to slay dragons and save princesses with little to no prep-time¸ Folklore just may be the game for you. This game has been trimmed down to the point that the entire rules set fits into a nice 4 page pamphlet. The pamphlet is merely a double sided 8.5 x 11 piece of paper folded in half. Folklore's system uses standard six-sided dice in play¸ requiring players a certain amount of successes on their dice to overcome conflict. A die is considered to have rolled a success if it produces the numbers 4¸ 5¸ or 6. The system has been built around this dice mechanic and since the math never strays away from addition or subtraction¸ even kids should be able to play with relative ease.
