The Geared Towards Loner line is a growing family of standalone games built on the same minimalist engine as Loner. Each title uses the familiar core (tags and the Oracle) but adds its own flavor, tools, and focus to bring out the essence of a genre.
Every book is complete in itself: you can pick it up and play without owning the Loner core rules. At the same time, all titles are interoperable: supplements, Adventure Packs, and guides can be mixed freely across the line.
What unites the Geared Towards Loner line is not setting, but approach:
Minimalist Rules: No new dice, no stat crunch—just tags, fiction, and the Oracle.
Genre Resonance: Each title highlights what makes its genre sing, from pulp cliffhangers to temporal paradoxes.
Interoperability: All titles can draw on the same supplements, Adventure Packs, and community content.
Whether you want to fight crime in the alleys of 1930s New York, wander neon streets haunted by anomalies, or get caught in a time loop, you can always rely on the same foundation: simple tools for emergent storytelling.
