FUBAR (Release Prime)

You've been screwed...

At least one person wants you dead...

The only people you almost trust, are people who don't necessarily trust you...

But you've got skills and talents that might just get you through...

...might just let you get some revenge

...and might let you achieve your destiny.

FUBAR is a low preparation roleplaying game focusing on a group of talented individuals who have been betrayed by the people they trust. Using the cyberpunk ethos of "Style-over-Substance" it provides a rough framework to tell a tale of revenge, deliberately leaving out certain key information so that players can customise their game at the start of each play session. Character generation is quick (a name, four words, and a sentence describing a goal) but as a game progresses, these outlines are coloured and shaded to reveal complex figures desperately seeking vengeance and redemption.

(Downloading this product comes with the quick-start single page version of the rules, Naked FUBAR.)

An updated version of these rules can be found as the FUBAR Director's Cut.

[Note: This is not the FUBAR miniatures game produced by Craig Cartmell (with a following over at the Forge of War Yahoo Group), if you were looking for that product, have a look here. Both games are unrelated, but were coincidentally developed and released at roughly the same time in mid 2010.]

July 2013 Note: We've switched the two versions of FUBAR (Director's Cut and Release Prime) over to the Pay-What-You-Want model. At Vulpinoid Studios, we still want people to have free access to some of our games, but we're looking to produce a print copy of FUBAR in the near future. If you want to throw some support behind the product by offering some money our way, we'd be grateful. Thankyou.
