Play fantasy worlds and modules with a whimsical twist.

CRESCENT B/X is an extra-light fantasy role-playing game for going on odd, whimsical adventures. To play, you and your friends embody characters in a world of your making—either by using a role-playing setting book, lifting from your favorite book or series, or creating a new world altogether.

C:B/X's minimalist ruleset draws inspiration from the NSR and FKR scenes. Use this game to quickly set up campaigns in a shared world or to explore your favorite RPG module with a story-gamey focus that encourages worldbuilding-over-rules.

Included comes:

  • CRESCENT B/X6 pages. Includes guidelines, 1-2 rules, and a character creation table.
  • 4 example characters: Enter the motley crew composed by Luzien Morningstar, Igor the Nefarius and their twin Tim, Kreiry Woodenhands, and Grethalia Prototype v4.
  • A blank character sheet to make your own weird little guy!

Physical Edition available through these retailers:

so is this the whole game or is this pretty much just a free sales pitch for another digital version? I'm not trying to be rude, just a touch confused, seems like it would be easier to have a paid version on here, at least from a user experience?

Hello there, Crescent B/X is free: You can access all the game's files in this page. It just so happens to be a small game :-)

If i buy from your webstore, will i also get access to the digital version here? Thanks!

Hey Benji, not automatically since that's a bit wonky to set up atm, but I'm always happy to forward digital keys upon request :)

This is beautiful and I'd love to grab a physical copy but can't afford commiting to the patreon at the moment :( any chance you will have copies in your webstore soon for individual purchase?

Hey Glenn! Thank you for your interest. I'm still figuring out how/when physical sales will be on sale, but it's definitely in the plans. In the meantime, feel free to send me an email and we can work something out :)

thanks for the consideration I will email you shortly!!!
