It’s Free RPG Day!

Free RPG Day started in 2007 that means this is the 6th year that we get some free RPG goodness. So as a companion piece to my last article, here are some great ways that are super free to get into RPGs. You can find all of these through the links I include or on DriveThruRPG.com

1. Wolsung: Steam Pulp Fantasy (World Tour) –  Find it here. Wolsung will actually appear twice as this great steampunk RPG has not one but at least 2 free products this Free RPG day!

2. Keep on the Shadowfell & Quick-Start Rules (4e) – It’s right here! This is one of the best places to start with D&D’s 4th Edition, you get the module, the quick start rules and loads of awesome information to get started for free!

3. Prowlers and Paragons – Capture the villain right here. Remember Mutants and Masterminds? This rules lite RPG is in the same vein but much more fluid. You want to smash into a bank vault or fight across a city scape? This game is for you. Full of tights, traitors, and tortured heroes.

4. Wolsung: Steam Pulp Fantasy (Test Drive) – Investigate something Victoriana here. This is the second book from the team at Studio 2 Publishing, realistically it should have gone first on this list because it is the quick start rules for the setting and system but I just like the other book so much.

5. Cogs, Cakes, and Swordsticks – Just a little more Victorian Alt-History, right about here. Cogs, Cakes, and Swordsticks is everything that pulp victorian roleplaying should strive to be, simultaneously fun and dark it strikes the right balance for each player set against the backdrop of Victorian London in the British Museum this game is just plain fun, and free, did I mention free?

There are many other free PDFs available on sites like Drive Thru RPG right now! Don’t miss out on all of this gaming goodness!
