Blood Red Dreaming

“We are as gods and might as well get good at it.”

The Whole Earth Catalog

A Dangerous Game for Dangerous People

Blood Red Dreaming is a tabletop RPG with a ARG system linked to gameplay resolution. This is Dungeons and Dragons meets Pokemon Go with A custom deck of cards used for action resolution rather than the polyhedral dice so typical of tabletop RPGs. Blood Red Dreaming (BRD) draws heavily on gameplay elements from themed tabletop board games and from video games to create a gameplay experience that is fast, easy to learn and focuses more on storytelling than system rules minutia. 

BRD is also in the public domain. Use it how you like. Aardvark, Aardwolf, and Ape publishes our own updates on the game, but all e-copies are released for free. The game is designed to encourage habit building that will make players more capable in the real world. This is probably the only RPG where level grinding will actually help you become a bad ass.
