Reply: General Role-Playing:: Re: QOTD NOV 10: What RPG games/systems use a ladder or scaffolding approach to get players/GMs to learn the game?

Fabula Ultima's Press Start adventure is the obvious example of this, though it makes for what I found to be a frustratingly linear experience when playing through it.
The couple of CYOA style introductory solo adventures I've played - Call of Cthulhu (7th Edition)'s Alone Against the Flames and Legend in the Mist's learn to play comic adventure also do this, and I think it's a good structure for teaching games for that format.
Arguably Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast as a whole, with the chapters unlocked at the start of the game largely being simpler than the ones you unlock through play (Though I'm saying arguable because the game is still - Ignoring the hidden chapters - four RPGs in a trenchcoat, with even the two most similar - Relaxed and Pensive - having distinct mechanical framework from each other although you only have to worry about the RPG that the chapter you're currently playing), although you do start with a few Weird chapters unlocked which are more complex than ordinary chapters for their ruleset.
From what I've heard about it, I think Triangle Agency might also do this, with some mechanics being considered spoilers for even the GM at the start of the campaign.

Bundle Watch - November 10, 2026 - Two Little Mice, Warhammer FRP 40th, and OSE
Posted: Tue, 10 Nov 06:00:02
I had a nice weekend. I got to run again, and had a good game. The party essentially ran from one encounter to another, so that was a challenge for them, but it was nice. I was up too late, and my dog doesn't understand that daylight savings ended, so she likes to "woof...woof" over and over at 5 am. But oh well.
I also used a mode on my phone to turn it to "phone only" so I only got phone calls and texts - no notifications, emails, IMs, etc. It was glorious. I had to find things to do. We did the dog park with a friend, I read, I played a PC game...IDK. Probably more. This is something I'm going to do more, and recommend everyone try.
As a reminder, I cover bundles from Monday last week to this last Sunday so I can draft the post in advance. I'll cover yesterday's bundle's next week.
Bundle of Holding
:kF::ki::kr::ks::kt:<< these are the links Runs from 11/2/2026 to 11/23/2026
Our first bundle of the week is a revival from Bundle of Holding, featuring Household 2nd Edition by Two Little Mice. While I haven't played this game, I have played some of TLM's other games, including Outgunned and Twilight Sword. While neither of those games are in this bundle, I can say I've been impressed by them. Two little birdies also tell me that there will be a crowdfunder any day for a bestiary for Twilight Sword, whose core books just delivered. So that's a thing, if you're interested.
But, back to the bundle. We covered this one previously, here. Check that post for what's included; the price is again $15 USD.
:kS::ke::kc::ko::kn::kd: Runs from 11/2/2026 to 11/23/2026
New this week is the Household Expansion bundle. If you want more teeny tiny adventures, there right here. Remember to start at the previous bundle if you're new to the game.
This single tier bundle costs $13, and includes expansion book Household Volume II, which details the yard, new outside folk, a profession, new vocations for all the professions, and more; and a campaign, Saga of the Long Winter.
:kT::kh::ki::kr::kd: Runs from 11/4/2026 to 11/11/2026🔥
Next up, and last this week from BoH is Play to Win! This one is short, y'all! It ends TOMORROW (when this post drops). For $8, you get a pair of books documenting the board games renaissance we're all lucky enough to be living through. It includes Everybody Wins, and What Board Games Mean to Me.
Humble Bundle

:kF::ki::kr::ks::kt: Runs from 11/2/2026:?block: to 12/31/2026
Last up is (in my opinion) an excellent Old School Essentials bundle. I've had a lot of fun playing these at conventions, and the price is right, especially if you don't have these books yet. I'll have to decide sometime before the end if I need enough scenarios that it's worth it for me, having already procured print (and PDF) copies.
Once again we have a bundle that presents a ton of value. If you take care of your files (3-2-1 backups!!) this is enough to last years. If you throw in PDFs of other OSR or classic D&D modules, you have a lifetime of gaming.
Tier 1 - 3 total items - $1.00
- Old-School Essentials Player's Book
- Old-School Essentials Rogues Gallery I
- Old-School Essentials Character Sheet
Tier 2 - 14 total items - $8.99
