Hamlet's Hit Points

See Your Stories Like Never Before

Hamlet’s Hit Points presents a toolkit that helps make storytelling in any RPG easier and more fun by classifying story beats and letting you track their ups and downs from hope to fear and back.

Armed with these tools, you’ll be equipped to lay compelling track for an emotional roller-coaster that will keep everyone at your game table involved, excited, riveted.

In these pages, you’ll find definitions of nine critical story beats. You’ll read about the relationships between those beats. You’ll also find complete analyses of three stories you know already—Hamlet, Casablanca, andDr. No—to show you how the system works.

Written with roleplayers in mind, Hamlet’s Hit Points is an indispensable tool for understanding stories, in games and everywhere else.

About the Author

Robin is the author of eight novels plus the short story collection and has edited five original short fiction anthologies. He has also designed some of our favorite tabletop roleplaying games such as Hillfolk, Feng Shui, and The Esoterrorists.

Quotes

A critical hit! Whether you approach Hamlet’s Hit Points as a writer, as a critic, as a film buff, or as a gamer, you’ll find that Robin Laws is there ahead of you, pointing the way. An unparalleled game designer and best-of-breed game master, Robin reminds us that narrative is worth it: worth creating, worth studying, and worth nurturing in any format, with or without dice.” — Kenneth Hite, author of Tour de Lovecraft

Nice jacket at a much better price for one night!
Color: Christmas Green, Size: Large, Color: Christmas Green, Size: Large
We were quite amazed with the fit and quality of this jacket. It was used for one night of prom and looked great! Each of my son's closest friends wore different colors of the same jacket and they all looked great and coordinated with their dates!

Sophisticated
Color: Wine Red, Size: Large
This blazer exceeded my expectations! The floral paisley design looks stylish and elegant without being over the top. The fit was true to size, and the shawl lapel gives it a classy, high-end look. The fabric is thick, but the texture of it is soft. I wore it to a formal event and received tons of compliments all night. Great choice for prom, weddings, or dinner parties at an affordable price.

Sized Up, Still great!
My son typically requires a 3x TALL, so I sized up one (4x) but had it gone to a 5x that might have been even better. For reference he is 6 foot tall, 300 lbs, and very broad shouldered (think lineman 🤣) However, the quality and print were so great! He opted for a chain instead of the bowtie because he did a bow tie last year, but that was decent as well. For the price, this is a GREAT buy.
