Trapdoor

TRAPDOOR is a set of rules which allow players to explore perilous subterranean fantasy worlds using little more than dice, miniatures and their imaginations. It was born chiefly from two desires:

1. To devise a simple dungeon adventure rules engine that still allowed for detailed character development and thus longevity.
2. To create a set free from the constraints of being tied to a predetermined sword & sorcery background. In this way players can use whatever fantasy miniatures they have to hand and can place their games in whatever 'world' they like.
