Tagged: IndieRPGs, rpgs, Zine, Zine Quest
Hey there all,
I launched a kickstarter yesterday for a small zine format rpg. Think Secret of NIHM meets Mouse Guard in a world where Humans have dissappeared and intelligent rodents have built city-states in abandoned houses. Thanks to anyone giving us a look!!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tredhed/crawlspace-rodent-roleplaying-in-a-post-human-world

The Outside . . . a dangerous place, filled with predators of all kinds: Hawks, Owls, Cats, Dogs, Foxes . . . monstrous beasts, all of them. Thankfully, here in The House most stay out, except for the occasional Cat.
The House . . . a place of huge walls and many rooms gives us space to make our homes. Small communities gather in various sections. In Dentown, the mouse Wordbinders tell the history of the world of Before. Stories of giants ruling the lands and building the enormous structures that allow us to thrive in relative safety. In Kitch End, the rat Foodsniffers, and their fabulous warehouse larders, feed us all. In Playrume live the hamster Tunesingers, who entertain with song and dance, making sure we laugh and enjoy life. The gerbil Newsrunners, who abandoned the tunnels of Playrume, run The Walls between communities gathering and sharing information.
You, as one of these Peoples, make your way in the world. Will you run the pathways of The Walls as a Newsrunner to bring updates to the various villages and towns? Will you be a novice Wordbinder, tasked with finding more of the precious Words that molder away with age? Will you be a Tunesinger, passing on the songs from Playrume? Will you go beyond these pastimes and become an Adventurer, seeking treasures and dangers in the unknown of … The Crawlspace.

Nowhere near the advanced state of Rock N’ Rule as far as tech but the idea is great. A much smaller world but not at all limited if you wanted to expand it a bit like a roaming Redwall saga.
