Welcome to Critical Success RPG

Critical Success RPG is a love letter to TTRPGs written by Michael Perez. Over 2 decades ago, he was pulled into the gaming world because no one else would DM, and he stuck with it ever since. He started off with Dungeons and Dragons, but after many years, the draw of something different pulled him to other systems. So began a journey into the interesting and sometimes weird world of nontraditional TTRPGs, and the inevitable collection of far too many systems, books, and dice to be healthy.

This blog is for the people who want something different. There is nothing wrong with mainstream or traditional TTRPGs. In fact, there will be content and information aplenty about D&D and others like it. But what this blog is really for is to look at systems you might not know or love yet. There are more games out there than most people know, and this blog aims to shine some light on them.

If you have any suggestions for content, please use any form of contact to let us know! There is always room for more games, and interesting, unusal, or just weird gaming is the point. This should be a community, not just a source of reading, and contribution is essential. Speak up! We want to hear it.
