Best Friends

ADD TO WISHLIST >

What Is Best Friends?
OK, it's a game about being Best Friends and all the little hatreds that Best Friends have for each other.

Oh, I know. You're gonna say that y'all get along just peachy.

Well, that's fine too. No one said any of this was true...

But, between you and me:
it really is.

Best Friends is a role-playing game for 4 or more friends.

It features a simple and genuinely innovative character creation system, and devilishly childish circle-triangle artwork.

Written and illustrated by Gregor Hutton (3:16, Frenzy, ERP, Ghostfighter) Best Friends bristles with dark humour and an impish tone.

Featuring an innovative group character creation system it requires only tokens, such as poker chips or shot glasses, to play. The simple rules are designed to get players telling stories of Best Friends and all their petty hatreds right from the start.

Equally adept for playing characters in crisis or angst-ridden teenagers Best Friends is illustrated throughout with devilishly stylish art, which gives it a quirky care-free feel.

"Best Friends is one of the most genuinely innovative role-playing concepts I have come across in a considerable time" - Hendrik Little

“My fave element of this is character generation, where the other players vote on your various stats. Nice clean visual presentation.” - Robin Laws

“Even though the game is about conflict and hatred, it lends itself easily to a humorous, tongue-in-cheek tone.” - Michael Erb, Graffiti Magazine

“...the game is nothing if not subtly provocative... Character creation is brilliant. Setting creation is simple and elegant...” – Don Corcoran

Gregor Hutton's first work was Frenzy (co-writer, co-illustrator) published by Venture Press in 1995. He also created Elegant Role-Playing (ERP) and has written for Contested Ground Studios' a|state (Ghostfighter and others). His latest work is 3:16 Carnage Amongst The Stars, which is the polar opposite of Best Friends.

Best friends may not be the most testosterone filled RPG in the market, but dang it if its not one of the most creative to come along in a long time. If you have seen your share of dungeons, dragons, cyborgs and evil bases, you should enjoy best frie [...]

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.
