24 Hour RPG

1KM1KT is the official mirror site for 24HourRPG.com. Project participants may submit their work for online publication and view archived 24 Hour RPG submissions.

The 24 hour RPG Project is basically the budding and professional game designer’s equivalent of a triathalon- You put your body, mind and spirit through some major punishment in a race against time, in this case to develop a full, working, playable role-playing game within a mere 24 hours with other peers. Like a triathalon, there’s no “award” for winning; Rather the award is in itself to participate, test yourself, overcome the challenge at hand at your own pace and skill level, and share in the brief glory with your peers.

Dwarfen Veterans

Saturday, November 9th, 2013

You are dwarfen veterans and recall the memory of old battles. You will disagree often, since everyone wants
to be the best fighter, general etc.

The only way to find out who is right is by drinking, one of the favorite activities when dwarfs have no enemies to kill.

Dwarfen Veteran is story driven. Who wins the contest can narrate the outcome. No stats, no dices, no game master. Just your vivid imagination and a lot of beer.

Dwarfen Veterans was submitted to the 2013 Harder than Granite 24 Hour RPG Competition.
