Coin Op </em> is an arcade game-inspired modification of the original rules light <em> Dungeon Squad! </em> roleplaying game. The players are called "Hero Guides", and have up to two characters under their control. As in <em> DS!</em>, each character is created by assigning three dice (d4, d8, d12) to three abilities (Explorer, Mage, Warrior) and Hero Guides attempt to roll equal to or over a difficulty number (default is 4) using the appropriate die when attempting an action. The game is broken into "stages", each of which occur in a distinctive setting or location. Monsters and traps have values, and at the start of each encounter the GM pulls the appropriate number of tokens (pennies or quarters) from a pool in the center of the tabel. Hero Guides then earn these coins by defeating the traps or monsters, and spend the coins for character advancement. The GM also awards loot, but only in an abstract sense; Hero Guides are responsible for describing where the bonus comes from (i.e. a bonus to Mage can come from a magical amulet or just increased personal skill). </article> <article> <h1>Complete Dungeon Squad!</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2009-11-19</p> <em> Complete Dungeon Squad! </em> is a free, rules light roleplaying game based on <em> Dungeon Squad!</em>.

The biggest changes are the addition of a point buy system instead of the original's simple die allocation character creation method, a magic point system when using spells, and "pacts" that provide certain mystical benefits but proscribe certain behaviors. Other smaller changes include the addition of freeform talents that provide a one die step bonus to related actions, new rules on dungeon hazards, and an expanded spell list.

Characters are still defined by assigning dice (d4, d8, d12) to aspects, though the fantasy-appropriate aspects in the original have been replaced with Reason, Influence and Physique. Stuff dice (d6 and d10) are used to detail weapons, vehicles, and "extras" (including skills, talents, and contacts). Characters have a profession, and actions that fall under that area of expertise increase the die roll by one step. Mental shocks increase Insanity by one point, or two points if a Sanity check is failed. Sanity checks use d20, but add the character's Insanity to the difficulty. Foes range from cultists to cloud beasts.

The house is intended to serve as a microcosm of the chaos in Soviet Russia from October 1917 to September 1918. The players define their own characters, including a pair of related NPCs. They then collectively define their environment, including the physical nature of the house they live in, elements of the house that can influence external events, and other NPCs affiliated with the group. Over the course of the following months, different events and conditions are thrown at the group, who use their own traits and the traits of affilated NPCs or household elements (including "the gun", the only way to kill another character) to perform actions (including electing a leader during the subcommittee meeting). Contests are resolved by rolling a die for each relevant trait, earning "books" as they are alternately revealed. During their turn, the two players describe their actions and how they counter the other player's actions, with no conclusive results until books are spent to purchase goals. Goals include injurying an opponent, meta elements like ending the conflict, changing relationships, or making permanent changes (to either character; concept is not sancrosact). </article> <article> <h1>Kpachoapmee: Krasnoarmeets</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2009-11-15</p> <em> Kpachoapmee: Krasnoarmeets -- The Role-Playing Game of the Unglamorous Parts of the Battle of Stalingrad </em> is a miniatures game about new Red Army troops patrolling in the mud to northwest of Stalingrad and waiting for the orders to attack the Germans around the city.

Characters choose the other members of their unit that are most important to them, and measure mental strain using Stress.

Characters under too much Stress have Episodes. </article> <article> <h1>Holodomor</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2009-11-15</p> <em> Holodomor </em> is a roleplaying game set in the Ukraine during the winter of 1932/1933, when the collectivation of the farms led to the deaths of an estimated eight million peasants.

Characters are defined by their Nutrition, or the number of days until they die from hunger (starts at 40), which is used for most actions and doubles as hit points. The basic mechanic is 1d10 plus Nutrition/4 against a target number. Each character chooses any number of things they feel strongly about (Emotions) and assigns an intensity from 1 to 10. The total number of Emotions is the Moral score, which is used for initiative and can hinder others who try to act against the character. Emotions can be permanently reduced to succeed at actions, and acting against an Emotion increases Despair, which measures the will to live and can be raised to gain a mechanical advantage. </article> <article> <h1>Cities of Golarion</h1> <p>RPGnet Gaming Index — 2009-11-14</p> Most adventurers think of cities as the places to go after the adventure is over.
