Frequently Asked Questions

What is SPURG?

SPURG stands for Staunchly Public, Unrestricted Ruleset Groundwork. SPURG is not a game by itself, it is a framework, or set of tools, with which role-playing games can be made. It includes rules for role-playing, including dice mechanics, character creation, and combat, as well as guidelines and suggestions for creating games and content.

How do I use SPURG to make a game?

Using the established ruleset, you can use SPURG to create custom-tailored, fully complete role-playing games. This can be done without fear of copyright infringement, patent conflict, or other potential complications arising from intellectual property. You can even use SPURG to create copyrighted works based on licensed properties (although some involved with the project would urge you to reconsider).
