Colonial Lies, Protocol Game Series 28

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

Colonial Lies is a story roleplaying game about secrecy and distrust set in the years before the American revolution. Wealthy “traders” of Jamestown cannot trust the Tidewater elite and the homogenous Puritans of the New England see new Amsterdam as a threat to their way of life. As such, the colonies have placed agents everywhere. Players take on the roles of spies, in service to the developing nation, in an attempt to undermine the clashing virtues of the colonies. Will the burgeoning America survive?

In Colonial Lies, the enemy is not the British, or even Mad King George III, but the other ‘nations’ of pre-America, who are trying to maintain their wealth and independence at any cost. Everyone is a potential traitor against the might of the burgeoning nation — now faced with new threats at every corner. Can the colonies survive in spite of themselves?

Protocol is a series of story roleplaying games that thrusts characters together into dramatic situations. Each game uses the same set of rules, with vastly different parameters, start points, characters, and finales. Players take on the roles of directors outside the action and characters inside the action, using the ebb and flow of four different scene-framing styles (vignettes, interrogations, interludes, and ensembles) to tell meaningful stories about characters in crisis.

Each game in the Protocol series is zero-prep for 3 or more players. The game length is exponentially long, so games with more players take more time to complete. The Protocol Series requires a deck of poker cards as well as tokens to track drama points.


All Protocol Games are 100% GMless, require almost no preperation time, and use the same game system. There are over 50 games in the series, which means there HAS to be something here for you.

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.
