The Usagi Yojimbo Role-Playing Game is an American role-playing game based on Stan Sakai's Eisner-award winning comic-book series Usagi Yojimbo. The game is written by Jason Holmgren and Pieter van Hiel, published by Sanguine Productions in 2005.
The game is set in a fantasy version of Japan in the Edo period (beginning of the 17th century) and uses a heavily modified variant of the systems used in Sanguine Productions' other role-playing games Ironclaw, Jadeclaw, and Albedo: Platinum Catalyst.
In late October 2006, a version of the game translated into Spanish was released.
Famous quotes containing the word game:
“One of life’s primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustn’t hide too well. You mustn’t be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
