before i consider buying this, i have to know if this is a game

(+1)

The acronym "TTRPG" stands for "Tabletop Role-Playing Game", which is to say, the same general kind of thing as Dungeons & Dragons or Call of Cthulu or Eclipse Phase or so on. I hope that helps?

I'm still making my way through the rulebook but
1) Could I play this through discord? Or do we have to be in the same room?
2) There's no GM for this game, right?

It's designed for a GM - the role that the rules refer to as "Control".


The combat rules are maybe a little bit crunchy, as written, to run entirely without a map grid - but if you handwave the weapon range rules, there's no reason you can't run it as pure theatre of the mind. (I certainly don't see a problem running it unmodified in something like Roll20.)

Thank you so much for the quick reply and clarification!

No problem!

Er... There's already a game called Rain World.

There is indeed a platform video game named "Rain World", which has no connection with this pen & paper RPG named "Rainworld". I hope that clears up any confusion you had!

I wasn't confused, I was pointing out that it might cause other people confusion.

Okay!

were you stupid enough to get confused? lol because i don't think anyone else has or ever will have this "problem" you feel the need to point out.

These rules have such a great section on safety that I'd like to ask if I can re-use it verbatim, with credit, in the RPG that I'm planning on releasing.

What, really? Sure!

Thanks - much appreciated. I'll drop you a line when it's out.

Oh man, that's amazing — I think I'm going to need a week to absorb the game properly!
