Noah’s Yacht - a One-page RPG

The Game: God's doing another deluge because people suck. But this time, more people have boats. Like your neighbor Noah. He's got a big boat. Not like, two of every animal big, but y'know - a solid yacht. And a lot of people (and critters) want to be on it...

What I Like About This One

I have an abiding fascination with diceless systems, and I think that for something with a vaguely Judeo-Christian theme, the idea of Faith and Hope being non-random levers at play kind of tickles me. Seven saintly virtues as stats, also fun.

What I'd Do Differently

I thought I was being clever with the way I laid this one out. I was not being clever, I was being a dumb-ass.

I wish that I'd put some more mechanical depth into this one. I think I got kinda swept up in the idea of something like Honey Heist, that's just a bunch of hilarious random tables, and was like "I can make a funny list!" And then I did that instead of making a more interesting game.

Notes

It's pay-what-you-want on GumRoad. If you'd like to throw me a dollar for the ink, that'd be awesome! If you want it for free, just put $0 in the 'name a fair price' section. Either way, please enjoy this stupid little game I made and I'll see y'all tomorrow for the next one!

Still figuring out other publication platforms like itch.io and DriveThru, but those platforms are coming!

Get it on Gumroad!
