I love this little product. Perfect for players new to role playing, and also for experienced veterans. The vets can fill in the blanks and take the story anywhere they want, creating new stories.

At face value, this game seems simple. That's because it is! However, do not let the simplicity fool you. With only a bookmark (hence the name) and a standard set of RPG dice, one is free to do whatever they want within the limits of the GM. Be that food truck owner that by day dispenses tacos to the masses and by night is a sword wielding maniac. And that pesky HP? Forget about it! There is a system using those standard set of RPG dice to accomodate it. To further add to the understandability, my daughter who at the time of this writing is 6-years-old is able to pick it up and go with her food truck owner.

I can't recommend this game enough! It is an epiphany of game design being so brief but encompassing such multitudes in it's concise design. If you are looking for an easy to pick up and play right away game I think you should certainly give this one a try.

The worst part of the Bookmark No HP RPG is... that it is so short you can't really explain anything about how it works without giving the whole rules system away (and this leads to a Fight Club-like situation: "The first rule about Bookmark No HP RPG Club is you don't talk about the Bookmark No HP RPG rules.”) Anyway, Lester Smith has managed --much like he did with D6xD6-- to create a deceptively simple system with hidden depths, built upon a robust dice mechanic and, most of all, fun and suspenseful and which you could probably play anywhere with the help of a smartphone dice roller. Highly recommened if you want to give an innovative minimalist rpg a try. That said, I am going to bend the rules of the Bookmark No HP RPG Club a little bit and present a sample character:

Nina Rodrigues Vocation: Postapocalyptic taxi driver and part-time vigilante Attributes: Brawn d8, Grace d6 Will d10 Wits d4

How do you roll these Attributes? What do you use your Vocation for? I am afraid that would be telling too much ;-)

This is game design at its most daring, folks: write a multi-genre RPG that fits on both idea of a bookmark and still gets the job(s) done There's some adjudication required, sure, but this is necessary when there isn't room to fit a "rule for everything" on something that can fit between two pages of a paperback This is the kind of fast and felxible game that puts imagination and improvisation up front, but it also has a simple, robust set of (a few) rules to back it up

BnHPRPG puts forth a set of unique rules that not only get out of the way of role playing, they in their own unique way facilitate your imagination. They encourage you to answer why. If you want a high crunch rpg, this is not it. I know you are shocked about that given that all the rules actualy fit on a bookmark. If this appeals to you, give it a try, I expect you will have an enjoyable time.
