SimpleSet is an RPG framework that I have been working on for 7 years. we have thousands of hours of play-testing, scores of player characters and hundreds of NPCs that have been built in the system.
I got really tired of a few things in other systems, so I started building my own.
- Lack of flexibility. Creating custom monsters and characters was difficult.
- Too many rules.
- Closed architecture so you had to buy books (see #1)
SimpleSet is the bare minimum of what I feel is needed for a “complete feeling” but very flexible game. SimpleSet is a very thin framework of mechanics that you hand custom stuff onto.
The core concept behind SimpleSet is “Yes.” When a player wants to do something, the GM should strive to answer “Yes” to their request.
I will add more as time permits.
