Spellbinder: A Little Free Library RPG
A downloadable game
YOU ARE A WIZARD
In your post-apocalyptic world, magic is hidden in ancient spellbooks. The spells inside are powerful but fleeting. When you cast one, it disappears from the spellbook forever.
Spellbinder is a quick-play tabletop roleplaying game intended for 4-5 players. Players borrow books from a Little Free Library and use the words inside to cast powerful (but unpredictable) spells. Now available in English and French!

Found a copy in the Little Free Library at McCormick Park a little while back—very clever concept to activate the kind of devalued books one tends to find inside a LFL.
Thanks! I’m glad people are finding the zines I’ve been scattering around Toronto. And yes, after visiting 70+ libraries, I’ve noticed the books on offer have been… interesting.
How does one exorcise the tiny wizard from a library? He is weaving his miniscule magicks atop a stack of Nancy Drew novels and WON'T STOP.
I love the idea of leaving a copy of the game in a Little Free Library!! That's fantastic! I have three right near my house!!
Thanks! I’ll be printing off a bunch myself and dropping them in little libraries all over Toronto very soon.
