Bullets are scarce. Hope is scarcer.

Welcome to the end of the world… it’s dumber than you expected.

DEAD SIMPLE is a brutal, fast-paced tabletop RPG with a grimly hilarious twist. Built for one-shots and full campaigns alike, this game drops your players into a collapsing world where the undead rise, supplies dwindle, and bad decisions get you killed.

Why DEAD SIMPLE?

  • Streamlined 2d6 System: Roll fast, die faster. Add Skills and Abilities, but be ready to panic when things go south.

  • Brutal Realism Meets Gallows Humor: Yes, food goes bad. Yes, your roommate might infect you. No, you can’t outrun a horde forever.

  • Zombieland-Style Professions: From Burger Flipper to DIWHY Expert, your job before the collapse might just save your life… or doom you hilariously.

  • Permanent Consequences: Bitten? Say goodbye to that limb—or to your life. No antidote. No second chances.

  • Panic System: Build stress until you break. Then scream, run, cry, or snap. Or all four.

This Is a Playtest!

This early version includes:

  • Core rules and mechanics

  • Full skill list and character creation

  • Sample gear and zombie infection rules

  • Optional darkly comedic tone (Zombieland-style one-liners encouraged)
