Crowns RPG, OSR Fantasy
A downloadable game

What’s this?

While rereading the rules after posting the great and powerful Perilous Update I realized there were now some inconsistencies that existed in the later pages. So, this update is just me going through and cleaning up all of those inconsistencies before printing. I’m excited!

Changelog
