Hi.

As gamers, role-players and authors we want to express our discontent against the greed and the player-unfriendly acts that have been spread in the latest OGL news.

Something may be already changing in this regard, but today we want to push a signal – however small – by releasing our indie rpg for free, with its contents opened to anyone. No sign-up is required.

Diventi: Primo Contatto

FAQ

  1. Why should I bother? In the recent years we detected a soft wall between players of any skill level and those who play as game masters in their own system of choice. We believe there’s space in between and we want to facilitate any player that aspires to share their take on fantasy storytelling with their friends, removing as many obstacles as possibile to help them create outstanding adventures. Primo Contatto trains its players to be game masters from the first hour.
  2. What’s your pitch? Primo Contatto is a modern-fantasy rpg, set in a world like ours where technology suddenly turned off in almost a third of the planet. In this world there are those who are trying to set light in the event that isolated South America and those who strives to stay safe from warring individuals who are using their newly found gifts to rise to power.
  3. Is the system unique? We built on the foundation of the d20’s to manage ability checks, while we integrated our take to challenge the duality between magic and tech. Characters and game masters of Primo Contatto will be able to tap resources from both worlds!
  4. Did you playtest your game? We’ve been playing online and in live events in our country since 2020. Thanks to our early adopters we integrated so many improvements that we believe the game will be suitable for new and veteran players alike.
  5. Will you print paper manuals? It’s not in our plans, for now. Primo Contatto is an online publication because we believe in a rolling-release type of game, i.e. any updates will be pushed directly in our website so you will always get the latest version, automatically.
