The Anything Machine
A role-playing game for tabletops where players create and control characters using a system that resolves conflicts with one roll each player's dice pool, allowing them to tell any story genre while the quick resolution ensures smooth gameplay like chess on steroids. The game has no ability scores or classes required but does require some set up time between sessions before starting play in order for new storylines of interest can be added into an existing session without a lengthy rewind back through prior conflicts and characters' histories necessary to recreate previous events with full details again, making it perfect for storytelling purposes. The inspiration behind the game is from games like Dungeons & Dragons World (Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup), Fate Core system, ApocalypseWorld RPG, Blades in the Dark adventure path series which were all well-loved RPGs of their time that offered a lot of content within shorter campaigns with more room to grow and develop player characters. Play sheets are included for easy customization!
