Articles & Games Available for Download

Currently we're compiling the various Articles and Games we've written for anyone to download.  We believe now that they've been ran once, why not make them available for anyone to use! Just click on one of the links below and the appropriate PDF file should begin to download...

All we (the members of PMC) ask is our Games are not reproduced, distributed or performed for commercial use without our written permission.  Feel free to run our Games, use them as source material, etc, but if you plan to sell our intellectual property, we'd like to know about it!  See our Legal Disclaimer for more information.

A quick e-mail to pmc@pointlessmentalcruelty.com is the best way to ask us for permission.

Future Availability of Games

The Games we've ran at Australian conventions previously take time to check, edit, format, re-write and upload. Material needs to be clarified and in some cases added so that it makes sense and is easy to run.

One of our Games - "Brotherhood of the Carribbean" - is at present lost due to a PC crash back in January 2009! We have a hardcopy copy of "Brotherhood" (it's in Adelaide with Daniel!), but... If anyone downloaded the PDF, please contact us at pmc@pointlessmentalcruelty.com


Some Games, such as "Caveman Shakespeare" or "The Money or XP" , will likely never see the light of day due to their complexity (or in the Cavemen's case, the grammar!).

"A Pointless Fairy Tale" is in the process of being edited, and should be available in September 2009. By the end of the year, we're hoping to add "The Greatest American Tragedy" to our on-line repository for you to download (it's 95% complete as of August 2009 - up from 80% 2 years ago!). Also, one of the collaborative works written with Scott (now a PMC member), "The Manor of Darkmoor" could find its way onto our web site 'in the near future'. That will make somewhere in the realm of 9-12 Games published by Pointless Mental Cruelty!

Everything else, well... We're getting around to it!
