The Pip System is a generic role playing system created to let you play games in any type of genre or setting. Four genres are presented: Fantasy, Modern, Sci-Fi, and Spooky. The rules use a simple D6 based system and are great for introducing new players to the RPG hobby. A set of simplified basic rules also exists in the back of the book, which is great for introducing children to roleplaying. 

The Pip System Corebook was created by Eloy Lasanta with help from Carol Darnell, Derek A. Kamal, John D. Kennedy, Martin Manco, Crystal Mazur, Amanda Milner, and Jacob Wood. It features artwork from Jacob Blackmon, Kennedy Cooke-Garza, Gary Dupuis, Gunship Revolution, Jeremy Hart, Widodo Pangarso, Shaman's Stockart, James Shields, Rian Trost. It was originally funded on Kickstarter and published in 2017 by Third Eye Games.
