Hack 'n' Slash is a Roguelike Fantasy Rule System that is D6-based, easy to get into, but has many different options. Potions can be used on your character, on a weapon or items, and even thrown at enemies! Adventures may add extra and additional rules, expanding the world and setting.

With this package, a first introductory adventure is also included: "The Alchemist's Dungeon." This is a 46-page, 40-section adventure that brings you into the world of Hack 'n' Slash. More adventures are planned, and you are encouraged to create your own for private use.
