What a breath of fresh air! This is by far my favourite rules light system I've both read and used. You can hold all the game rules in your head. It was easy to teach the game to my wife before we played a short adventure together. I was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to run a one player adventure because the Karma and Hero Dice systems give characters a few ways to avoid bad rolls that could cause an early death. Those game mechanics are fun for players too. One of the problems with most other systems is that players that want to play wizards often have to waste a lot of time reading lists of spells before they even create a character. The spell system here is both simple and elegant. It's as easy to create a wizard or a warrior. The character creation rules strike a nice balance between quick character creation and customization. It's easy to homebrew new classes or inclinations if you want even more options. If you don't like the loot system, then use your own. You can also convert monsters or adventures from nearly any system on the fly. I like this system so much that it has replaced every other system I've used or read. This is all I want or need. I'm sick of rules getting in the way of the game I want to play. I don't have the time or energy to waste.

Great simple game! This is what I play with my family. The D6 mechanics are easy to explain and understand. I apreciate a complete game that's complex enough and interesting, yet still fits in a small book!

I love the concept of this ultra rules light system. TTRPGs have always been about telling a fun story as well as being total badasses. The character creation in this system is phenomenally tailored to unlock the imagination of new and old players of TTRPGs such as DnD 5e. The spell casting and limited resoure tracking in this game really frees up combat and the lack of stats really helps new players who do not want to memorize which bonus applies when and goes where. This game is perfect for getting creativity going. On that note, DM Scotty is a really creative person. If you have ever seen his youtube craft videos, you can attest to this. Really a standout game for veterans and newbies alike.

The mechanics of the system are so easy to use and make so much sense while being so flexible you really can use it for any hame type. Scotty really has kept all the fun parts you love about ttrpg but took out all the parts that slow you down and take you out of the game.

This thing is what all the cool kids are playing, Straight from the underground. From the mind of the mad man DM Scotty. It's a mayhem engine that never derails. If Dungeons and Dragons is pop music, EZD6 is METAL. It's fast, furious and a little bit insane.

A rule system that feels like it was written around "the rule of cool". fast and rules light, but just the right amount of depth and crunch.

EZD6 is the solution to a question I've struggled with in my 40+ years of being a game master: Why do so many games have so many unnecessary rules? Most games pile rules upon rules in a bizarre and unnecessary proliferation that only increases the amount of time lost to pausing the game to look up obscure rules and rules lawyering.

Not EZD6.

EZD6 functions elegantly to strip away every rule that is unnecessary for play, every bit of unnecessary math, to create an elegant, swift, intuitive system that can be quickly grasped, learned, and taught. Required math is single digit addition (using Karma points to enhance rolls); the majority of rolls rely on number recognition, which allows for swift resolution.

The magic system is quickly resolved and improvisational (promoting creative solutions and freeing the player from memorizing reams of dead trees worth of information) while also being chaotic and unpredictable.

I've already begun an EZD6 campaign, and the players spend far more time actually role-playing (rather than asking rules questions and trying to figure out optimized combos) than with any other system I can remember over decades of gaming.

If you like rules-intensive systems, then EZD6 will not likely be your go-to game, but for for someone like me who thinks that an RPG shouldn't reward the player with the most and deepest rules knowledge over the first-time player, who wants to keep the disruptions to immersion at a minimum, and who simply wants to get to the core activity - role-playing! - with rules that support the GM and provide quick resolutions, then EZD6 is a game you need to try.

EZD6 is an awesome game! Simple yet exciting. Easy to learn for new players but still satisfying, even for experienced gamers. Great for a one-shot or a long-term campaign. Highly recommended.

ezd6 is a fun, dynanic tabletop roleplaying game designed for all genres. It is rules light yet full of substance, and all you need are a bunch of six sided dice! The author and publisher are gamer geniuses. There is a vibrant community behind the game and additional settings are in the works. Highly recommended!

I love this game so much I tossed out all my others for now - and converting all my adventures into the EZD6 framework - because it is EZ that is why... and fun too

No more 10 hour battles with that other system.. now its super fast and GONZO and wild!

Karma is King!

My players love it....

No going back now!!!!

One of the best lightweight rules you can find. Very hackable as well.

Fantastic! Simple, versatile (the base mechanics can be used for any genre, play style, etc.), and intuitive. The method of play detailed in the book provokes GMs(RRs) to lean into the story! This game engineers and encourages cinematic combat and heroic flourishes that more cumbersome games prevent by micromanaging the GM with extra rules for various situations. Highly recommend this game. You will experience more dungeons and dragons in this game's fast paced adventure, than basic DnD because during your 3 hour DnD combat; EZD6ers have finished three combats, saved the world, built their own fortress and manifested an army.

One of the best systems I've ever play. I am so thankful I found it. Strikes the perfect balance between rules and flexibility. The way its designed lets you be creative both in adventures and during combat. It feels like what you always wanted an TTRPG to be: fun, exciting, and with little to no "rules break" and therefore optimal immersion. It can absolutely be used for long term campaigns! Not having 'levels' is like having your eyes opened for the first time: no more useless power or HP creep, no more linear level path you have to follow. Players advance through the narrative, new items, abilities, knowledge, relationships and the stories they make along the way.

RPGs are suposed to be about telling incredible stories with your friends, not minutiae of looking up paragraphs of rules in the heat of battle. The magic system is like no other, the character creation is a breeze, and you can learn the rules in 5-10 minutes.

This is a great system that reflects the OSR, but with an the pros of modern game design. Its everything you wish your D&D game was.
