Adventurer and Troll

ADD TO WISHLIST >

ONE IS ADVENTURER:

ADVENTURER IS WARY OF TROLLS BECAUSE THEY EAT PEOPLE

ONE IS TROLL:

TROLL IS WARY OF ADVENTURERS BECAUSE THEY HUNT TROLLS

This is a nano-sized storygame about negotiation in the context of power imbalance. A single regular die counts down the game and moves toward the final scene. It is meant to play quickly while encouraging both players to tell short tales, and reach the conclusion of their shared story in about 20-30 minutes.

I got this game for free from an itch.io bundle, I don't recall which one. I HIGHLY recommend it for a starter rpg with a young child (4 - 10 yrs) old. It was a very enjoyable 30 min with my 4 yr old niece!

For older kids or adults, I'd add any sort of timer. I've rated it 7 out of 10 on rpggeek.com and I'd rate it as an 8 with a timer. Otherwise, the Adventurer has a big advantage. Could be a GREAT game with some tweaks.

This seems like an interesting storytelling experience for a couple, but I'm wary of spending $4 for a single page. Has anybody played this and can confirm they got their money's worth out of it?

Hi Patrick, thanks for taking a look. If you’re interested in hearing it played, She’s a Supergeek recorded an episode here https://sasgeek.com/podcasts/136-adventurer-and-troll/

If you’d like to check it out via another platform it’s priced lower on Itch.io (to reflect their lower cut) and there are free “community copies” available. https://bansheegames.itch.io/adventurerandtroll

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
