In 2016, Grant Howitt decided – flippantly – towrite a one-page roleplaying game every monthand release it for free online. Little did he knowthat the barely-intelligible pen-and-ink scratches he turned out would go on to define his career, andthe shape of roleplaying games, for years to come. Played by thousands of people all over the world, Grant's one-page games run the gamut from strange to silly, daft to deadly serious, and powerfully original to potentially copyright-infringing. Each volume contains (at least!) 13 games in their original single-page format, complete with SECRET BACK PAGE material for every game that's never been released online. Plus, where relevant, the longer games Grant and his collaborators have released are printed in full-colour, saddle-stitched booklets. Each game has been written, illustrated (sorry) and laid out entirely by Grant, unless someone else helped him, in which case it says so. As of 2024, all these volumes come in US Letter size, in a sturdy cardboard folder with a spine.

Volume 4 (2020–2021)

• System Shutdown: As a team of ultimate cyberpunk badasses, can you survive enough to enact your terrible mission of revenge after the digi-bank forecloses on your implants? The longer play continues, the fewer limbs, competencies and senses the punks have access to.• Back Page: BIG MAN ADVENTURE! You're a BIG MAN and you have one stat: BIG.

• Night Hag: Grim urban horror game where sleep paralysis sufferers team up to reveal the truth: malevolent spirits are sapping the life from them when they're unconscious. The only option left to them is to hunt down and kill the night-hag that's been plaguing their dreams.• Back Page: Additional content for Night Hag including magic rules that will kill the user, firearms rules that will kill the user's friends, and more.

• Sepulchre: Powered by a cut-down version of Spire and Heart's Resistance System (and set in the same universe), Sepulchre puts players in the role of relic-hunters in a vast subterranean arctic arcology.• Back Page: Black Market Black Magic, additional content for Sepulchre. Additional details on all the districts evocatively but vaguely alluded to on the front page, and some illegal spells you can buy.

• Nice Marines: The Space Marines are renowned across the galaxy as immortal killing machines. What happens when they try to do some diplomacy? Charming Warhammer 40,000 fan game (with enough names changed so we don't get sued) with the potential to Succeed with Catastrophic Collateral Damage.• Back Page: A Fete Worse Than Death. Hack of Nice Marines which tasks evil Iconoclast Marines to spread the fearsome gospel of their dark gods at a local village fair.

• Orcball: Orcball is a cross between the riots that happen after other, more respectable sports and Burning Man. As new rules are handed down from mushroom-addled shamans after every goal, can your team of scrappy underdogs win the championship?• Back Page: Orcball Fun Facts. How was orcball invented? What's the largest game of orcball ever played? How does the religious hegemony of Bog-Al-Kurruk complicate sports reportage? Is elfball a thing? All these questions and more are answered.

• Goblin Punks: You're a no-good goblin kid with a distinct lack of prospects and a gang of similarly snot-nosed goblin friends. What are you going to do today? Includes full rules for goblin slang, rewarding players for inventing their own shared language.• Back Page: Lists of names for things that I struggle to come up with names for when I'm GMing, such as: an Orc, a Goblin, a Sexy Wizard, A Gruff Bartender, A Friendly Shopkeeper, A Tiger You've Put In Someone's Bedroom Without Them Knowing About It, and more.

• Briarwood: Two (!) page game which sets players on a recovery mission deep into shadowed and lawless woods. Jolly little OSR thing with a magic and abilities system, as well as a cool drawing of a tree that you can use as a map.• Back Page: Mirror/Mirror. There's another you that l…
