A downloadable tabletop rpg

The GATEWAY The Tabletop RPG is a Free, rules-lite, easy-to-learn, fast-paced, and universal d20 Roleplaying Game framework that is perfect for introducing new players to the hobby of tabletop roleplaying games. This system allows for any theme or setting, from Fantasy to Cyberpunk, from Horror to Noir, or whatever your imagination can create.

GATEWAY’s simple rules are based on similar mechanics from the 5th Edition of "The most popular roleplaying game in the world".  It is easy for new players to learn the rules, go on an adventure in a short period of time, and is the perfect "gateway" to other tabletop RPG’s. The open genre even provides an excellent format for "One Shot" adventures with your fellow veteran players and Game Masters. 

Alternatively, longer-term campaigns are possible by using GATEWAY's "Advanced Play Variant" or by simply incorporating rules from other d20 systems such as D&D, Pathfinder, Star Wars d20, Call of Cthulhu d20, etc. You can even move your adventure over completely to those rulesets.

This rule system includes the following:

  • 16 Pages of Rules for Players and a Game Master's Section
  • 1 Page Quick Reference Sheet to be used during gameplay
  • 1 Page Character Sheet (Printable or Form Fillable Options!)
  • Formatted in an easily accessible and printable PDF's
  • White Background and Book Textured rulebooks
  • Also En Español

I don't like the complexity of 5e, I like the FKR and the OSR lite.  This rules is perfect! Thanks for sharing them with the community!

Glad you like them!
