One page games?

HERE’S THE DEAL: I write one tabletop or live roleplaying game a month. It will be no bigger than one side of A4 paper (that’s one side of letter paper, for you American types) and I will do all the art, layout and design myself in pen.

My games are, in general: short, punchy, well-written and exciting. Over the last six years of writing I’ve become more serious and less silly, so expect to see a mix of tones ranging from introspective and heart-breaking to daft and explosive. I’ll always strive to innovate and offer something original or surprising in each game.

Support one page games on patreon

You'll get access to the PDF of the games a week before everyone else on the internet, as well as occasional Patreon-only posts.

    I really liked the resolution system, very simple but also source of story twists. The list of “conditions” is also well thought and create a sense of time pressure, of playing against the clock. Even the table determining the NPCs attitude towards the PCs is fun and useful ! Really, this little game is condensed with cunning and efifcient game mechanics.
