Hello friends!

SPROUTS, aka Sticky Papers Rolling Over & Under Tricky Situations, is a lighthearted adventure ttrpg where players have their hand-drawn creatures travel across real-life terrain.

This game turns any living space into a charming adventure. Players act as Sprouts, delightful little creatures that can climb up furniture and travel over counter tops. As a team, Sprouts will adventure from Landmark to Landmark to collect Treasures until they reach The Ending Place together.


Required For Play:

• Markers, pens, or pencils to draw with

• Sticky Notes, any shape large enough to draw on

• A 10-sided die (D10) to share, or one for each player

• A sense of wonder and imagination

An Inspired Adventure

With SPR☼UTS my aim is to create a simple and fun real-life adventure game that players of all ages could enjoy together.
My main inspiration for this project is my youngest family members  who range from age 4 to 14. While looking for TTRPGs to introduce them to I found it difficult to find an easy game that could accommodate the entire family; The chaotic energy of the youngest, the creative problem solving of the eldest, and all the kiddos in-between!


What has been developed so far?

This project is nearly done! This game is finished and playable! A free demo of the Character Creation section is free to download and view below. ( I would love to meet your Sprouts! Use #SproutsRPG or post them in the Comments! )

Physical versions available (if you're lucky!) at DinoberryPress.com

Your support is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Such a cute premise!  What's the average play time of this game?

It depends a lot on the space you decide to adventure in and how closely goals are placed. An average bedroom can be within an hour for four players. Opening up the play area to a large living room and a dining room can make the game last much longer. But there are fun ways to play with space. I know a family who had their characters use little toy cars (hot wheels) and ramps to zip down the hallways in their home. Another family had their kiddos build bridges out of legos that they could place before starting the game.

OMG what a charming game. I can't wait to try it - I used to love pretending to be a tiny creature when i was a kid, which seems like a pretty common experience. I will definitely also post my sprouts in the comments once I get the chance to play!

I loved to imagine little creatures running around as a child. :) I can't wait to see them!!

Could I get a community copy of this to use with my students? This sounds amazingly fun and like something that I can use to encourage them to write.  Thanks!

How many players is this game?

Hello! There is no player limit. I'd recommend trying your first game with anywhere between 2 - 5 players if you're unsure, but you can have as many players as you want!
