With Gründer: Business Adventure Game, you'll start your own company and head out on a dangerous adventure. Securing funding requires clever cooperation and the courage to take risks. In this world, profit always has a bloody price.

Rules for immediate action

Forget about endless flipping through rulebooks. The game is built on OSR principles, which guarantee minimal friction. Your party can get straight to solving real problems.

Risk it all, or lose everything

Profit requires complex and painful decisions. Every step your company takes brings rewards, but also harsh consequences. The entire game session ultimately comes down to a single roll.

The manual uses the Into the Odd ruleset.

The manual is in English.

Gründer is a business adventure RPG for 3–6 players.

You found a Company together with fellow ambitious minds and set out on a daring adventure to secure the funds you need. Through risky decisions, clever planning, and cooperation, you chase opportunity in a world where profit always comes at a cost.

The game is designed for fast, focused play and works especially well as a one-shot. Sessions culminate in a final roll that determines the fate of the Company: success, failure, or something in between.

Gründer is inspired by OSR design principles and historical business realities, emphasizing:

• Clear procedures and low friction at the table
• Meaningful risk versus reward
• Player-driven problem solving and consequences
