Merry Murder Elves

ADD TO WISHLIST >

It’s Christmas Eve, but something is terribly wrong. The elves have gone mad with bloodlust, the reindeer are rabid, the gingerbread houses have been burnt to a crisp with the families inside, but Santa still must deliver presents by Christmas morning.

Can you help Santa and his Wife navigate through his house, workshop, and stables—and kill off the murderous elves and reindeer—in order to reach the sleigh and deliver the presents before Christmas morning?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Murder Elves is a Roll+Write Role-Playing Game of Christmas mayhem for a solo player. That means you don’t need a Game Master. This system uses a single D12 for all rolls and is based upon a simplified version of the Micro RPG system created by Noah Patterson for such games as The Dark West, Radio Mystery RPG, and Barbarians of the Gothic Waste. This new system is called the MicroD12 system and it is specifically designed for solo play.

This introductory edition of the game, featuring premade characters and premade maps, will show basic concepts and mechanics that will appear in the future rulebooks and adventures utilizing this system. Future books will include various game genres and settings that have become popular with gamers in recent and past years.

Is there a Micro RPG rulebook that is required to play this game? Or is this a standalone / introduction to they system?
Also, is this appropriate for a D&D playing 12-year-old as well as adults? It'd be nice if not only myself but my son could play it...

Anne, thanks for the question. Yes, this is a stand-alone game. While sharing some mechanics with MicroRPG (Rolling low, 3 simple character traits, enemies with only one or two stats, etc.) it is its own new system meant for solo gaming (tentatively titled MicroD12). There is no blood or other adult content in the game whatsoever. If your 12-year-old is okay with the idea of evil killer elves and reindeer, it could be very good. Also, while it is designed for solo play, there is no reason you and your son couldn't both play together, each taking on the role of either Santa or Mrs. Claus and working through the three premade maps together. I hope that helps.

Noah, thanks very much for such a prompt and informative response! I've been playing off-and-on with my older son since he was 7, right as I was getting back to tabletop RPGs after a looooooong break. So he's used to D&D levels of violence - and his best friend is a bit of a murder hobo ;D Sounds like it could even be a good fit for my younger son, who's 8, and just getting into our junior D&D games. I'll be adding it to my cart to pick up in the next day or two - thanks again for getting back to me so quickly!

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
