Bite the Bullet: You are a legend (2024)

In the gamebook Bite the Bullet, you try to survive a shootout, killing your opponents before they kill you. The game is conceived as a cut-and-play game. You must cut the maps, character sheets and counters from the book. After reading the rules, you have a short preparation time to start your first shootouts. This concept is eco-friendly (as the book is printed on demand via Amazon KDP publishing) and cheap (compared to a similar boxed game). The game is designed to play in three games modes: solo, co-op, and competitive. In solo mode, you play alone against an NPC opponent. In co-op mode, you play together against an NPC opponent, and in competitive mode you play with four characters against four. At the start of the game, the opponent starts concealed and is approaching you. You must first try to find out where the enemy is. On your turn, you roll a die to determine how many action points you have to spend during your turn. Each NPC opponent has their own action table and reacts in a unique way. Shooting is resolved by rolling two dice and applying modifiers. The game contains eight scenarios, each with their own victory conditions, that you can play in a random order. Additionally, you can play the game as a campaign, either as lawmen or as outlaws. By winning several scenarios in succession, you try to become a living legend. There are also two expansions available with more scenarios and enlarged game maps. The gamebook is sold, printed and delivered via Amazon.
