Abandon All Hope

Travel through Hell and purge your sins in search of paradise.

• A low-prep narrative game. 
• Uses only six-sided dice.
• To play alone or in group.
• Start the game by reading the first page and simply move on, finding out about yourself and those around you.
• Use the sheets, which complement the rules, as instructed and don't let the weight of guilt trap you in HELL!

Abandon All Hope was a game created by my laziness to create characters. Sometimes I get overwhelmed with the mechanics and even opportunities to create a deep or optimized character. “Abandon” is an exercise on my part in making a game where I just start, not even knowing who my character is. I find out about him as I play. And isn’t that the strongest argument for those who advocate short preludes and more direct stories? I want to know who he is while playing! And who has never created texts and texts about a character to need to change everything at the time of the game, because simply what you imagined didn’t even come close to the dynamics of the game?

With “Abandon” I even managed to make a session in which characters were created playing the game, before we set up the sheets for another RPG, with other rules, but with a profound departure from a game session, from an RPG exercise.
