Spellzard is a simple and flexible tabletop game inspired by old-school British roleplaying games. It captures the essence of wondrous and fantastical adventures in a light and quick manner. The rules are easy to understand and can be customized to suit different play styles and preferences.

Spellzard by Robertson Sondoh jr, is a new rules light fantasy rpg clone from small game publisher, Experimental Playground. It is a retro-clone of the rules behind the Fighting Fantasy gamebooks of the 1980s. Fans of those books may remember 'Fighting Fantasy: The Introductory Roleplaying Game' by Steve Jackson. This was an attempt to make the gamebook rules into a 'proper' rpg. Later came 'Dungeoneer! Advanced Fighting Fantasy' and later still, the 2e of AFF. Spellzard fits in between the first two of these books mechanically... plus some new twists borrowed from games like The Black Hack....
