James and Robyn George’s Pits & Perils is published by Olde House Rules. The checked original electronic edition identifies its third printing, December 2015. The Black Paperclip page offers third-party supplements, not the core rulebook.

At the table
Use 2d6: combat normally needs 9 or better and noncombat actions 7 or better, with relevant modifiers. Explore, negotiate and cooperate; the referee adjudicates situations beyond the concise rules.
