In 2016, Grant Howitt decided – flippantly – to write a one-page roleplaying game every month and release it for free online. Little did he know that the barely-intelligible pen-and-ink scratches he turned out would go on to define his career, and the shape of roleplaying games, for years to come.
Played by thousands of people all over the world, Grant’s one-page games run the gamut from strange to silly, daft to deadly serious, and powerfully original to potentially copyright-infringing. Each volume contains (at least!) 13 games in their original single-page format, complete with SECRET BACK PAGE material for every game that’s never been released online. Plus, where relevant, the longer games Grant and his collaborators have released are printed in full-color, saddle-stitched booklets.
Each game has been written, illustrated (sorry) and laid out entirely by Grant, unless someone else helped him, in which case it says so. As of 2024, all these volumes come in US Letter size, in a sturdy cardboard folder with a spine.
What's in the book?
You’ll receive 13 games printed on high-quality paper and signed by Grant, bundled together into a folder with a fancy cover.
These games (and their back pages) are:
JASON STATHAM’S BIG VACATION. Make sure that the international superstar has a nice time on his holidays, despite the efforts of a vengeful sniper and his own unpredictable nature.
Back page: BRYAN CRANSTON’S BIG EXPANSION. (Definitely) written by famous actor Bryan Cranston, this expansion for JSBV features new characters, loads more locations, bonus secret missions for the characters and the Statham Master, and several facts about Bryan Cranston.
LAST CHRISTMAS. You’re a time-travelling festive ghost who attempted to teach Ebenezer Scrooge the error of his ways but instead gave him a heart attack – and that, somehow, caused the world to end! Can you avert the apocalypse by using your GHOST POWERS?
Back page: LAST CHRISTMAS: IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE EDITION. Uses the same rules as LAST CHRISTMAS, but this time the time-travelling ghosts have to help Jimmy Stewart not get drunk and jump off a bridge. Contains rules for hopping back and forth between the light and dark timelines in the film!
CRASH PANDAS. Why are you, a raccoon, embroiled in the high-stakes world of illegal LA street-racing? Can you all drive the same car at once without crashing? Find out!
Back page: CRASH OVERRIDE. An expansion for Crash Pandas, featuring rivals, another random equipment table, fun things to crash into, and exciting locations for street races.
THE FIVE. Years ago, the corruption – gears and oil and filth and grease – overran the world, killing the Queen. You are the last five knights of the Queen, fighting to honour her memory even as your bodies are wracked and changed by the corruption.
Back page: THE FEW. You fight monsters in the dark places of the city, and you’re infected with whatever it is that makes them monsters. You hope it’ll kill you before you hurt someone you care about.
GIANT GODDAMN ROBOTS. A very silly mech combat game where you draw pictures of giant robots and then throw dice at them in an attempt to cause damage and win the day.
Back page: METAMAGICIANS. A roleplaying game with five rules that you will write as you play. Each player is given power words that they must include in rules that they introduce into the game; see if you make something beautiful, or even just functional.
PRIDE AND EXTREME PREJUDICE. It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman in possession of a giant war machine must be in want of a fight. Take up arms against the invading French forces and find yourself a husband!
Back page: GIANT ROBOT CLUB. Everyone thinks you’re a nerd for taking part in extracurricular science clubs, even if you do get to build giant robots. But now that aliens are attacking the school, it’s finally your chance to impress someone enough to convince them to go to prom with you!
NO MORE ROOM IN HELL. A GMless game, or a game with four GMs; take control of individual facets of a story that sees desperate survivors struggle to survive in enemy territory – whether that’s war-torn cities, the hunting ground for ghouls, or a state that believes you cannot be allowed to spread your ideas.
Back page: UNPLAYABLE GAME POEMS. Some of them are kind of playable. Includes MARK RUFFALO’S RUTTING BUFFALOS, GILLIAN ANDERSON’S BANNED HER SONS, ELECTRIC CHAIR 2: SPECTRAL BOOGALOO and WHERE’S THE BEEF?
RETROGRADE. You just woke up. You don’t remember a thing. People are hunting you, and you need answers – fast. A cyberpunk amnesia game in the style of Flashback.
Back page: REVENANT. A fantasy hack of Retrograde where you wake up after dying, hungry for revenge.
TRAMFORCE. Following a disastrous Brexit and increased coverage of tram lines in the UK, the government have resorted to using power-armored cops to police city centers – even if they have to remain tethered to the trams or risk running out of power. You are those cops. You… are TRAMFORCE.
Back page: IT’S GOLF! Promotional material that we found in Grant’s uncle’s attic detailing a mysterious golf-based board game/RPG hybrid. Features classes such as Roughian and hints at the evil forces of Bad Golf.
ADVENTURE SKELETONS. You’re a skeleton. You’re bored of being told to guard a boring old dungeon by a boring old wizard. Time for an adventure! You set off to the human dungeon (“village,” in their tongue) in search of wrongs to right and things to fight.
Back page: BONUS CRUD FOR ADVENTURE SKELETONS. Two D20 tables containing rules for random body parts and magic items. Includes multiple rules for geese.
THE STREETS OF KARAZUN. Evoking Fighting Fantasy gamebooks in vibe if not mechanics, this A7 rules booklet unfolds to reveal an illustrated map of Karazun. Play cut-throat adventurers on a quest for glory and plunder in this dangerous port-side city.
Back page: BENEATH THE STREETS OF KARAZUN. Flip over the paper and you’ll reveal a map of the mysterious catacombs and secrets that lay beneath the city streets – the midden witches, the ogre king, and stranger things besides.
THE BEAST. You’re a sub-par 18th-century monster hunter in the arse-end of Eastern Europe; you work for the Baron, and you hate him, but he pays your wages. You’re tasked with hunting down The Beast that’s been terrorising the locals and; you will most likely die, mad and alone, in some godforsaken forest. Best prepare yourselves.
Back page: THE FOREST WITCH. An illustration of the kind of thing you’ll be expected to murder as part of your job.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS. You died, and you’re really angry about it. You can possess people, and you will, in an effort to exact revenge on the people that killed you and your friends. Contains full rules for unfortunate supernatural side-effects and ghostly powers.
Back page: HELL BOUND. You’re an insubstantial demon sent from hell to capture escapees and drag them back for eternal damnation – you can only further your goals by possessing luckless fools and throwing them into conflict with your targets.

Profound and timely
Format: Paperback
If I could give this book 6 stars I would. The way the world is right now, I needed to do a deep dive into anger. And I needed to see how God wants me to handle my anger. There were some very challenging and humbling parts to this book that I needed to hear. All the application questions at the end of each chapter helped me solidify what I learned and what I needed to evaluate personally. Which leads me to the statement that this book was deeply personal to me and I am grateful for the changes it’s helped me make to reflect God more and myself less.

Profoundly biblical and wise
Format: Paperback
David Powlison’s Good and Angry is a powerful book. In the book Powlison dives deep into what anger is and then gets very practical about how to biblically deal with your own anger issues (issues, he assures us, we all have).
From the outset, Powlison makes it clear that anger, while dangerous, can be handled to produce good. “At its core anger is very simple,” Powlison says, “It expresses ‘I’m against that’” (39). Powlison says that each of us handles anger differently. Some of us freeze over, some of us quietly brood, some of us simmer, some of us explode. Powlison encourages us not to look at the way others mismanage worse than us, but rather, how do we mismanage anger? Each type has their own blind spots.
Powlison then dives into anger itself. Anger is about our displeasure toward something, so what are we displeased with? And why? How are we justified? Unjustified in our anger? And what do I want to happen? Anger is physiological. As embodied beings, anger manifests itself in us physiologically. How is it impacting me when I’m angry?
Powlison then dives into mercy, what he calls a constructive displeasure, or constructive anger. When the constructive displeasure of mercy is functioning as it ought, it has four characteristics: patience (a wonderful biblical synonym of patience is “forbearance”), forgiveness (which is “mercifully unfair” (80)), charity (a spirit of magnanimity), and constructive conflict (“Mercy is not a free pass. It is an invitation to turn and repent” (94). All of these fundamentally point to the work of God and his righteous response of anger to our rebellion. “The constructive displeasure of mercy means the redemption of the world” (102). Powlison walks through how God’s anger works: through his righteous and holy response to our sin, to him taking his wrath upon his son on the cross. He concludes, “God’s wrath is your hope. God’s wrath is my hope. We don’t often hear that, but it appears everywhere in the Bible. Wrath is our hope because love masters anger” (121).
The final portion of the book steps back and helps us move through analyzing our own anger. Powlison uses James 4:1-12 to help us analyze our own anger issues. At the heart of this analysis is James’s own analysis of his hearer, that they are fighting and quarrelling because of their “desires that battle within” them. In other words, if we have an anger problem (which we all do), we have a malformed desire problem. In other words, we have a heart problem. Significant in digging into this question is the ability to analyze my own motives. The issue isn’t what has happened with me, but is my heart and my heart’s motives and desires in the midst of any given situation. Key questions to ask myself when in a moment of anger are: “what do I want?” “what do I fear?” and “what do I most love?” (154-55).
Powlison concludes with a strong word of hope. God is in the process of changing us and reshaping our heart. Our problem, Powlison says, is that we tend to talk to the wrong person in the midst of our anger – ourselves. But when we turn and talk to our Good Shepherd, we will experience hope and change.
I’m so grateful for Powlison's Good and Angry. It is a profoundly biblical and wise book with both subtle and profound insights. I know I have been impacted by the book personally and will both turn to it in the future for personal use and as a resource for others who struggle with anger.

Format: Paperback
David Powlison thinks you have an anger problem, and a serious one at that. It is not because he knows you personally, but because he is one who has long studied the fallen heart. But he is also convinced that your anger does not have to be a problem and this book is intended to help redirect so that we can be both good and angry.
Anger, as Powlison who is the executive directory of CCEF, defines it, is a sense of opposition to something that is both important and wrong. That means it is a moral response. As those who are created in the image of God we all have come wired for the capacity to express anger. But, as Powlison carefully shows, we have a problem. Our anger is misdirected and misguided because of sin. Not only in the little daily frustrations and irritations, but also in extremely destructive ways. The goal, according to Powlison, is not to eliminate anger, but to have it remade into the image of God by the grace of the gospel. Far from being a therapeutic self-help book, his concern is that we come to understand how anger can coexist with forgiveness, patience, charity, and constructive displeasure.
This book should prove to be an excellent resource. However, if you pick it up with the intention to help someone else—your husband, wife, child, friend, or congregant—be prepared to confront the reality of your own anger first. Powlison has a wonderful way of acutely diagnosing anger as a personal problem for all, even those who do not consider themselves angry. A couple of highlights would be his detailed examination of God's wrath showing readers why it is actually because of God's wrath that we have hope. His chapters dealing with every day anger, long-held bitterness, and anger against God also flow from a counselor's heart as he addresses difficult and awful painful truths.

Good Christian Perspective on Anger
Format: Paperback
I read this book over the course of three months; it was not hard to get through but other books had to be read first because of library due dates and without intent, it kept getting pushed lower on my priority read list. I finally got back to it earlier this week and finished up the remaining chapters. After reading it, I have a better understanding of anger through a Christian perspective. Author David Powlinson is a counselor so he brings with him expertise in working with people who have suffered bad things. Unlike some counselors who give guidance without the Scripture, Powlinson incorporates God and His love in each chapter since God is the ultimate source of freeing us from the burden of anger and the other emotions that accompany anger. The book is broken down into four sections: Our Experience, What is Anger?, How to Change, and Tackling the Hard Cases.
Everyone is plagued by anger of different intensities and gets angry for different reasons and everyone deals with it in different ways, yet we are all the same in that we need to face our anger and seek God’s guidance so we may handle our anger in a constructive and positive way that glorifies Him. That is why I recommend this book to everyone, especially those who may be going through a hardship in life that makes them angry. I did not agree with everything Powlinson said or may not have understood where he was coming from on some things, but I still think he did a great job writing a book on a massive and complicated subject.

Brilliant and detailed.
Format: Kindle
I can’t say a single thing I felt missing from this book and can go on and on about what was included that I didn’t expect and found greatly helpful.
