The Dig: A Roleplaying Game

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Unimaginable wealth buried ages ago; works of art thought long lost; new works bringing glory to House and Cog; a new tavern because, really, that one down the street just isn't what it used to be.


In The Dig: A Roleplaying Game, Dwarves band together to reshape the underworld. Players tell grand stories of subterranean adventure and craft in a light, GM-less, storytelling RPG set in the Homes, the vast and sprawling dwarven civilization featured in the novel HOMES.  Games are played over five rounds. Players take turns narrating the action and drawing the Venture to its finale!

Features:
  • Spin tales of lighthearted adventure in the underworld
  • GM-less storytelling puts every player in the narrative
  • Simply designed action mechanic includes players of all experience levels
  • Character design centered on storytelling, not crunch
  • Randomly generated, zero-to-no prep options
  • Plenty of house rules to customize the game to your tastes
  • Set in a complete world brought to life with original art by Jacob Hunt
"A nicely polished product from start to finish...the whole thing is impeccably put together.”
- Alex Roberts, Backstory Podcast

“Here’s yet another entry that challenges typical thinking while still delving (pun intended) into some traditional tropes.”

“The Dig is a fast and innovative GM-less game with a five act structure. It’s like Dwarf Fortress meets narrative RPG.”
- Thorin Tabor, Tab Creations

What does "zero-to-no prep" mean?

It means you can jump in and play without having to get ready beforehand.

That makes sense. I guess I'm just confused by the phrasing, which seems to imply that "zero prep" and "no prep" are different

Would this work for only 2 players?

I've purchased this through Amazon around two years ago and it's such a great game! I'd highly recommend this even if you're new to storytelling games. This is light on it's rules and rich on it's setting, lore and comes packed with great ideas on creating your own adventures (the three it comes with are fantastic!) and advice to change elements of the game to suit your tastes. I've never had a bad session of this one and it's certainly entertaining! Your friends and family will often surprise you with the little elements they'll add to each story!

Well that's embarrassing! Sorry, I hadn't noticed this before. It's fixed now.

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.
