There is no Character Sheet. No textbook to read. A game about imagination, storytelling, and fun! 

GambitRPG is a quick-playing adventure game for any setting. The box set contains item cards for fantasy adventures. 

There are only two attributes in GambitRPG:
Red for physical ability
And Black for mental ability.
As a player you pick 5 cards of the 26 player cards (hearts and spades) to create a character. You may start with gear that provides bonuses or acquire it as you play. 

The Dealer (GM) presents challenges, playing his deck (diamonds and clubs) against you. The Dealer will urge you to push your luck ... and sometimes you will push to far. 

The system is very rules light, it allows for creative freedom with story and plot. (Pre-written adventures and settings from other systems are easily adapted to GambitRPG.)
The game's focus is on player interaction, and choices at the table. You also don't need a lot of space to play it, leaving lots of room for table snacks.

To play with just the PDF, all you need is a standard poker deck, and you can make your own item cards to suit your genre. 

Gamblers on the road risk it all for their next meal, payday or adventure. Here we take the adventure to you as you embrace the gambler's way. Your hand is your very life and each card is a part of your soul.
Do you dare Gambit on your next tabletop adventure?
