Beschreibung

A roleplaying game of mystery and hardboiled action in a city that never sleeps.

I woke with a start, my mouth tasting like an old glove and my head pounding from the events of the previous evening, though I wasn't sure if it was the beating from Benny's boys or the half bottle of drugstore whiskey that had done the most damage. I lifted my eyelids like stubborn blinds to find my gaze fall on a dame with a hundred-dollar purse in one hand and a cheap bean-shooter in the other. I groaned and cursed myself for ever getting involved in this mess...

In Hard City, character creation is swift and simple, generating competent yet flawed individuals and focusing on what sets them apart as they walk the fine line between right and wrong. Fast action resolution places the emphasis on the momentum of the plot, while the sandbox setting provides evocative hooks for adventures - fight crooks, rescue the innocent, thwart blackmail plots (or start them!), or uncover corruption in the Mayor's office.

Stalk the mean streets of a world filled with two-bit thugs, hard-nosed gumshoes, intrepid reporters, gangsters, and femme fatales, all doing what they must to survive in the concrete jungle. With trouble around every corner, a secret on every lip, and a gun in every pocket, danger is never far away in the hard city.

Über den Autor
Nathan Russell is a teacher, writer, father, and man of imaginary action. He has fought vampires, flown spaceships, plundered dungeons, and rescued Viking princesses. That is what he loves about tabletop adventuring - you can go anywhere and be anything. He has been playing, tweaking, and writing roleplaying games for 30 years and, in 2005, began publishing games for others to enjoy, including the popular Freeform Universal and Neon City Overdrive. Nathan lives in Australia with his far-too-indulgent wife, children, and pugs.
Zusammenfassung
The sandbox setting provides evocative hooks that allow players to build the city they want - whether it's pre-war Berlin, post-war Los Angeles, Capone-era Chicago, or anywhere else - and to tell the kinds of stories that appeal to them the most.
