Goblin Quest is a TTRPG by Grant Howitt about slapstick violence, fatal ineptitude, and the greatest adventure of your life.. Doodle and play five goblins each (in sequence, not parallel) and watch them one by one meet hilarious ends. This time, we're playing a hack, but the goal is the same: You’ll steer them through (or, more commonly, directly into) adversity, and you’ll have a fun time doing it. Will they survive the dangerous world and complete all their silly quest? Probably not. But you'll have fun finding out! The pitch for Kobold Quest: You live in the Underdungeon, a sprawling network of disused mines, mysterious tunnels, natural caves, and underground seas. At the centre of it all is the Mighty Dragon King, sitting on his pile of gold, with legions of kobolds under his direct command. Your lord and master The Mighty Dragon King has called upon your collected gangs to fulfill his next whim. Of course, the best solution to any problem (as all kobolds know) is to build an over-complicated contraption to solve it for you. You’ll all work together to build a Contraption, then push the big red button(s) and watch everything go swimmingly horribly wrong. Come up with your components, set out to gather/steal them, assemble it and most likely lose many Kobolds in the process.
This game will be great if you like drawing, kobolds, Mouse Trap, weird inventions, shenanigans, harebrained schemes, saturday morning cartoons, Grant Howitt's games Note: drawing your Kobolds and random items for the contraption is a required part of gameplay. These will be quick doodles so not artistic skill needed, think crappy MS Paint levels and you are fine :P This can be done digitally or on paper. If drawing on paper, please be prepared to take photos (using a smartphone or similar device) and share/upload them in our game's thread on Discord.
This system is especially great for new players.
The game runner is well-versed in this system.
We will build characters in session.
This game will be played in room #4 of the TTRPG Pickup Con Discord Server. Spectators are welcome in the Discord room, using Miro whiteboards. https://miro.com/
