ROCKPOOL

ROCKPOOL is a tiny RPG about tiny Rockpool creatures. With separate aims and a world that is both teeming with life and in constant flux, will you and your friends be able to use your Tidefast, Spinethrown, and Shelltwirled scores, your ability to craft items out of bits of rockpool junk, and most importantly your ability to work together to achieve your mist-shrouded, salt-encrusted dreams?

Will you build yourselves a tower to watch the sea, hunt periwinkle shells, face off against the monstrous power of a shore crab, or learn magic from the grief-tossed Driftwood Hag and the mysterious Watcher in Seaglass? The choice is yours!

In the 12 page PDF you will get:

• Basic rules for playing the game.
• A Table of Occurrences for unexpected things.
• A bestiary of creatures you might find around a rockpool.
• Some pretty public domain illustrations from 19th century natural history books.
• The general feeling of melancholic hope that comes from feeling small in the face of sea-spray and the ocean winds.

Feedback on the game is very welcome, I'd love to hear if you got any enjoyment from reading this or did a playthrough or got inspired by it in any way - or of course it'd be great to hear critique and thoughts on future versions.
