Here’s a basic timeline: 1973 - WIlliam Goldman publishes The Princess Bride, a swashbuckling adventure which tells both the story of a pirate rescuing a princess and the adaptation of that story into the novel which is being read. While Goldman wrote the entirety of the novel himself, the text presents the actual adventure story as the work of ‘S....
The Princess Bride RPGruns on the Fudge system, which I think is a good choice for a game which is built in this manner. The Princess Bridedoes not bury itself in the little details of its story - and neither should the people playing a game based on it. The effort of adding up a dozen modifiers, or the time needed to count so many dice, would easi...
Setting
The basic setting of the Princess Bride RPGis, pretty obviously, the setting of The Princess Bride. That means that it’s centered around Florin and Guilder, the two fictional nations in which the story takes place. The rules book includes basic information on each of these nations, as well as various locales within them, both in the movie (such as the Fire Swamp, Cliffs of Insanity, and the Thieves' Forest) and the book (such as the Zoo of Death), plus a few more. There are also notes about t...
Character Creation
Players coming straight from 5e D&D will likely find the character creation process in this game a little looser than they are used to. Fans from other rpgs, or even older editions of D&D, will probably have less trouble with it, though. When you make your character, you select the various Skills, Gifts, and Inconveniences that will guide your gameplay from the various lists included in the book. Then, you set your Heart, Wits, and Body attributes (these games equivalent to basic stats) accor...
After several warnings for readers who do not intend to GM, the sourcebook provides several game scenarios and hooks for you to potentially run with your group. Personally, I am thrilled with this inclusion. I’ve seen other sourcebooks include similar things, and I'm happy about it every time. Even if you don’t intend to run one of these scenarios,...
Tone and Presentation
While the overall setup and gameplay is perfectly usable, if a little loose, the presentation of The Princess Bride RPGis fairly decent as well. The book is well-organized, easy to read and understand, and the tone is familiar and engaging. I personally enjoyed all the little references and jokes that are scattered throughout the narration and explanations in the book, not just in the actual setup and rules. The FAQ at the beginning of the book is particularly funny, and I’d really recommend...
Supplemental Material
You can only buy the sourcebook for The Princess Bride RPGin a physical copy, not a pdf or digital file. I don’t mind - I prefer to have a real book in front of me anyway. The book, in turn, however, makes semi-frequent reference to online materials and supplements that can be downloaded off ThePrincessBrideRPG.com, or other places. These include character sheets, maps, modules, and other materials. These would be very nice to have access to. Unfortunately, at some point between its 2017 rele...
As stated before, The PRincess Bride RPGis an interesting and well laid-out game. The use of the Fudge system feels particularly appropriate for the setting and source material, and the looseness of the rules and gameplay allow for an epic adventure that really feeds into the atmosphere of the movie and book. Unfortunately, there are some typos and...
Jun 21, 2008 · Granted, the game isn’t perfect. The fifth episode, though based on a unique concept, isn’t really a full-fledged episode at all but more like a quick climax. Experienced gamers will find the ...
