A downloadable One-page RPG

Your Masters have abandoned you, their artificially constructed servants, and the remains of their civilization. Now shrouded in the smog, fungi, and fading myth of this ruined world, you and your fellow Forsaken wander these warped wastelands and sunken cities, in search of the precious components that will allow you to continue functioning; all in the hope that, one day, you can discover where the Masters went and become more than what you are. 

Artifice is a rules-light RPG about robots scavenging the ruins of human civilization for treasure and honor. Resolution centers around tearing and and repairing an index card to manage a limited die pool. Your characters will slowly fall apart as you play, making teamwork and wise-decision making essential to surviving your quest.

The game was written and playtested to Lookfar (Louie Zong)'s Beyond the Edge of the world (https://louiezong.bandcamp.com/album/beyond-the-edge-of-the-world). It is a wonderful dungeon synth album and playing to it is highly recommended.

Really interesting design! I like the way the mechanics reflect the limits of the forsaken as well as their adaptability. The setting is pretty fun too
