Hey adventurers! Skellies' version 0.95 playtest: Bonebreaker Edition is available now, for free, at PlaySkellies.com! Playtesters that leave feedback for it (good, bad, and ugly) at PlaySkellies.com/Feedback can get their name in the credits!

Just because you're dead doesn't mean you can't still have fun.

Skellies is a low-stakes roleplaying game where you play as risen skeletons in a lich's thrall. Your undead purpose is simple: make your lich's immortality as great as possible—organize their journals by century, knit them a warm sweater, listen to their poetry recitals, and, yes, even fend off the occasional band of so-called heroes. If your skelly perishes, you can always make another to take its place.

All you need is a handful of six-sided dice and a few minutes to get started: the rules themselves are covered in under ten pages.

Get ready to rise to the silliest of challenges and play out the goofy stories behind fantasy's deadest dungeon-dwelling denizens (and the beloved necromancers who make them). Skellies is the perfect go-to game for parties, first-time roleplayers, and anyone looking for a good-humored break from the rigors of playing traditional heroic fantasy.

This is slated for release later this year through Kickstarter, so you stand to get your digital hands on it first: have fun, tell me how it's balanced (again: good, bad, and ugly), and get your name in the credits. I wanna see your names there!

Plus, it's my birthday tomorrow (I'll be 35), so consider your fun a birthday gift to me! 🎁 I'd love to hear all about your time with Skellies!

Until next time: keep on adventuring!
