Description
Precious Things is a one-page RPG about tiny dragons building cozy hoards.
Your ancestors were colossal dragons with mountains of gold and earth-shaking magic. You are their proud descendants, building a hoard of your own full of magical power. It’s not easy, since you’re under two feet long.
A game for 2–5 players and one GM that takes about an hour and a half to play. Build your tiny dragon and set off on a big adventure!
If you were a dragon, what would you hoard?
Self-expression is limitless in a game where any household item can become magical. Choose what your dragon hoards, and describe the magic in your favorite precious thing. (It’s also a great question to ask to get to know people!)
Actual Play
Dan, his wife Christina, and their daughter Rachael played Precious Things on their podcast Almost Bedtime Theater. You can learn how the game works and have a hilarious heist adventure with Rumble and Loop the library dragons!
Precious Things is great for young players since it encourages creativity, exploration, and teamwork! Steph at TTRPG Kids invented a taco dragon with their kiddo. Here’s what they had to say about the game:
We had a fun time exploring the house with our dragons and collecting little trinkets and goodies for our hoards, and it was easy to understand too. Whether you’re looking for a game for friends who want a cozy adventure, are introducing new players to TTRPGs, or have young ones who want to join in on a game, it’s a great system that lends to a lot of collaboration and creativity for everyone involved!
