So, Shopkeeper Showdown released fairly recently, but a friend of mine is running a jam focused on TTRPGs based on video games. We came up with a few ideas but none that we could do in time...until we realized that Shopkeeper Showdown could be included with a few tweaks! But "a few tweaks" turned into a heck of a new project, and I'm proud to unveil Shopkeeper Showdown: Now More RPG-ier! It's free, along with the base game, until the jams we threw it into end! It includes 4 new name tags, motivation cards for all 12 name tags (including the 8 in the base game), and some major, game-changing new Upgraded Abilities. All twelve characters can be used with either set of rules, and you can choose to use a name tag that requires stealthy, sneaky actions like avoiding getting caught while literally grabbing cards off of the table or re-throwing them until you get what you want OR trying to get other players to do or say what you want to trigger your abilities OR rapidly try to set up and trigger awesome events like bringing those "dead" things in the dungeon back to life for major rewards!

We also made some changes to the base game. Here's a list!

• Replaced The Barbarian with The Champion
• Altered the abilities of The Collector and Salesgal of the Year
• Updated name tag character art to be more uniform
• Added the "All Set" set (one of each type) bonus
• Added page numbers to the rulebook (lol whoops)
• Made minor edits to the rules text and added/updated visual references
• Created a reminder card that includes set bonuses, turn order, and icons! It gets sleeved behind the assistant to the manager card so it finally has a back (and I added this to the Print and Play guide doc)
• Edited the PnP guide doc (changed "Part One" to "Cutting and Prep"... having "Part One" without "Part Two" drove me batty lol)

I think that's it! I tried to keep track (this part is new to me) but it got late and I got tired and 💤
