Rough Destiny
A downloadable game
A post-apocalyptic game based on Flexpiel, a fast and flexible system which works well for FKR style play.
Rough Destiny builds on Flexpiel by adding skills, roles, and a few extra rules for a post-apocalyptic setting. The game includes tips for running the game, play samples, a micro setting along with some adventure hooks, and tables for creating mutants and scavenging. There are tables for scavenging, spark tables for ideas, solo oracles and tools to facilitate solo sessions.
Fresh Pickin's is a short one page adventure which is fun to play in a group or solo and is a great introduction to Rough Destiny.

Hey Squidhead games! I purchased Rough Destiny and I am really enjoying it! I played a solo game scavenging an abandoned military base and I though it would be fun to turn it into a one page adventure like Fresh Pickin's. Would that be cool with you? With the necessary credits to you and your game of course as per CC BY-SA v4.0. Let me know and I can send you a copy to check it out and give me the green light!
Great to hear you're enjoying the game. That adventure sounds really cool. I absolutely approve. Share the link when it's done and I'll check it out.
Here it is! Thanks for the inspiration!

Awesome! Nice work. I like how you setup the traps, mutants, and final fight. I'll be running a solo session through this soon!
Thanks! Your game was the inspiration! I am really enjoying it!
Hola, me gustaria saber que porgrama usas para hacer el archivo Pocketmod.
Hola, I use Google slides to layout the PDFs. Getting the pocketfold all lined up is a bit of a challenge, but it works.
Even though I was not able to playtest the game yet, it looks pretty awesome to me! I feel like you gave it just enough structure, while still keeping it light and super customizable. 🙂
Also, I absolutely love how you made a pocketfold edition. 😆
Thanks! It was fun putting the pocketfold edition together.
