For those who don't know and haven't checked the rest of OP's channel: Earlier this year, he changed the rule about champions fighting without number cards attached (5:32). You can no longer guess any number you want, you must choose 11 or 12.
I created a low budget rpg. It's called cards and cobolds. It's a game where you play as yourself, and the dungeon master is the narrator for the story. You can play cards to perform actions while the dm makes out the outcomes for those actions. The rules are written on the dm screen. The setup is very easy. All you have is a bunch of decks of cards, and a game master screen.
When I played this with a friend, we altered the game rules a bit. Instead of dying after the opponent rolls their number, you remove one of the assigned number cards! (HP system)
I literally had to stop after watching the first minute. I decided to finish the video and I will never play this game in my life... because you inspired me to make my own card game using a standard deck. There are lots of rules and things ,but it only took me a few hours and its still relatively simple I just need to add in a few more things and I'm done. Thank you and great video.
The new SF RPG from Spain, FAITH RPG, uses playing-cards as well. The players are given a limited number of cards, and can choose to apply the relative "strengths" of the cards whenever it seems to them most dramatically important. When they really really have to "make" a roll, they play a high-power card. If they can tolerate interesting failures, play a low card. They may still succeed if the opposition goes lower.
This is really cool! I cant get over how simple the supplies are! This can be more exiting using playing cards with legit anime characters on them and if both players bring their own deck, you could have xmen vs yugioh ect. This game is underrated as fuck.
The probability problem is the most common values for two dice are 7, then 6 / 8, then 5 / 9 etc, but 11-12 will always be misses (as you only have cards 2-10) and also the sweet spot weirdly peaks part way up. I've tried a variation of adding aces into the numbers deck and using a D10, so you always have an equal chance of rolling any of the ace through 10 values and there are no outright impossible rolls (like 11-12 in the original rules). With this, I added the two Jokers into the face cards as the best ones as they're rarer, so Ja2 Qu3 Ki4 Jk5. The main disadvantage with this version is that a D10 is less common that D6, but you know.
7:00 it's not simple math. If your king has 4 cards, say 2,3,4, vs a queen with cards 6,7,8, you have more cards but still have less chance than the queen. Ultimately it's a bluffing game. Nice idea!
Hi there! I wanted to thank you for this video! My brother and I love playing this game ❤️ We actually changed a few things where instead of fighting each other, you fight against the deck! It’s a bit long to explain here in a comment but I still wanted to tell you that this is a very fun game and thank you very much for putting in the time and effort to make it ☺️
Glad you liked it and thank you for the kind words. Co-op against the deck sounds interesting. If you find a way to bullet down the basic rules I'd like give them a try.
Super creative game that incorporates simple playing cards and dice to make a fun "roll"-playing game. I also created a cooperative RPG with playing cards if anyone is interested: Ascension- RPG with playing cards
I love playing this game! I ran into a couple of issues due to lack of information, so I just filled everything in by making tweaks to some of the rules. First, I had no clue how many cards I'm allowed to attach to my party members at any given time, so I simply limited it to 1 card. Second, I had no clue when to stop rolling during challenges and random battles, so I set it so each player gets one chance to roll one of the numbers attached to his/her champion in the case of challenges. In random battles, the initiating player gets one chance to roll one of the numbers on his/her champion, and the opposing player has one chance to roll one of the cards assigned to the face card from the face card deck. In the event that neither player can roll a number on one of their cards, the result is a draw which means no penalty for loss and no rewards for winning. Also, if a random battle results in a tie, the face card being battled is discarded along with the number cards assigned to it. I have found that running the rules like this significantly speed up the game. If I knew how many cards I could attach each turn and how many times each player can attempt to roll the dice in challenges and random battles, I wouldn't have come up with these solutions which I feel help greatly in improving the quality of play from this game.
I made an RPG with 1 deck of cards that I play when I'm bored at work Step 1. Separate all 4 card pairs Step 2. Take all face cards and ace and put then together Step 3. Mix Spades and Clover numbers together with all face and ace cards including heart and diamonds Step 4. Take 1 of the 2 jokers and shuffle it into the big deck/deck with face cards Step 5. Shuffle Heart number deck and draw 1 card...that card number is your health number...you put it next to the 2nd joker/who is your character Step 6. Shuffle the Diamond card deck full of just numbers...this is the damage deck Clarification. You should have 1 health number next to a joker infront of you...then a big deck full of all Spade and Clover numbers and every ace and face card...then a damage deck...and deck full of health points Begin. [Step A]. Flip top Big deck card over. [Step B]. If a number repeat [Step A]. [Step C]. If a face card put a random health point next to it like your joker card. [Step D]. Draw the top card of the damage deck and whoevers health point number gets drawn first dies. [Step E]. If you die game over [Step F]. If you win take face card as Trophie put damage cards and health cards back into there own decks...give yourself a new health number and then Repeat [Step A] Bonus. When and ace is drawn that means you are friends with whatever face card of the same suit...Example if you draw a Ace of Clubs all Club face cards won't be at war with you and you automatically win Goal. Your a joker and your goal is to be friends with each and every Kingdom in the land...When you find the second joker it becomes a companion and gives you double life meaning it gets its own health point. Can you unite all the kindomes and be the best joker in the land? Or will you fail like so many others before you
@@ryan.1990 it's already been a year since I made this wow...I changed it up alot and Made it more simple and without using dice which makes if more on the go
Just a heads up, if you are allowed to choose a number to roll when attacking with no number cards attached, and you are using 2 6-sided dice, it doesn't make statistical sense to pick anything other than 7. There are more roll possilibites for a 7 than any other number. 1+6, 2+5, 3+4, etc... however, rolling a 2, for example, only has one possible roll, 1+1. So allowing a person with no numbers attached to freely pick a number can put the other player at a disadvantage.
You could have a rule that party members can't challenge/be challenged for the first two turns (encouraging you to spend first 2 turns assigning cards), but still need a rule to incentivise assigning a card in the first place. Forcing unarmed party members to roll 11 or 12 could work since those are unused in normal play (I assume, haven't finished watching); flavor as unarmed fighting or improvised weapons. Will edit as I finish and think of better alternatives.
I'm creating my own card and dice game and man I really like this one you've created! Very smart way of simplifying combat! I want to see more content from you man! You have something special to make regular cards fun again! Very Inspiring 🤘🏾🔥
Wasn't expecting Rare Square from Voices of the Lifestream (OverClocked ReMix Final Fantasy 7 album) when I clicked on this video. This one always gives me James Bond vibes. Nice Card RPG btw.
Hello Hezzop, thank you for inspiring the following: Schmiegel 2.0 is a “minimalist” role playing game that requires merely two players, a regular deck of cards, and a standard pair of dice. Each player manages their own adventure party, and the two parties are in battle with one another. Each party begins with four characters, and they can be rogues, clerics, wizards, or fighters. A player wins when they have eliminated their opponent's characters. www.reddit.com/r/rpg/comments/fosyui/schmiegel_v20_minimalist_standard_deck_dice_pvp/
Thank you. I've recently got back together with the co-creator and we've hashed out some new elements to make the game a little more tactical. It still only requires cards and dice, no new expenses. Hopefully I'll have a new video up soon with what we've dubbed Hezzop's "Pro rules", as they merely add to, but by no means, supersede the older core rules in this video.
Wouldn't it be better to make it so that a person with no cards only wins on a 2 or a 12? Because you're using two dice, there's no reason not to choose 7 as a number when you have no assignment (since 3-4, 4-3, 2-5, 5-2, 6-1 and 1-6 all add up to 7.)
The game is adjustable to satisfy individual preferences. If for any reason you wish to alter a rule, there's no Hezzop police that'll stop you. I'm all for the evolution of the game. So if you try something new and it works out, go ahead and share it with the community.
Hello Daniel. This is a great game that you and your friend Zach invented. I've played it around a couple of months now and added a few modest tweaks into this very fun game. I'm curious to see what you think. Change 1: When rolling 2d6 every roll has almost a 17% chance of coming up 7. 7 is indeed the most probable number one can arrive at when rolling 2d6. So when a player is challenged/challenges an adversary or has a random encounter without any cards attached, or as I like to call it (for thematic reasons) "equipped", where is the incentive to name any number other than 7? To combat this, I opt to roll 1d10. Now the numbers one can arrive at are truly random. However, what happens when you roll a 1? This brings me to my... Change 2: Because I'm opting to roll 1d10 when a 1 is rolled this is considered to be a "critical hit" when rolled by a played controlled "Champion". The number 1 can never be named by a Champion that has no cards attached. This means that every roll of the die has a 2 out of 10 chance of success with no cards attached, making combat way more dangerous. When rolled by a random encounter it's treated the same as a normal success (the adversary would simply discard any attached/"equipped" cards). When rolled by a player controlled Champion, not only is this a success, but the player that rolled it can do 1 out of these 2 options: (Option 1) Fortify Equipment: Draw a number of cards from the "Number Deck" up to the "carrying capacity" of the Champion that rolled the 1. Choose 1 and place it in your hand. Discard the remainder. For example, a player controlled Queen rolls a 1. The player can draw up to 3 cards from the top of the Number Deck, choose 1 to place in their hand and discard the remainder. Thus potentially bettering their chances of being able to "equip" a card next turn. (Option 2) Scout the area: Draw a number of cards from the "Random Encounter" deck up to the "carrying capacity" of the Champion that rolled the 1. Secretly look at them and place them back on top of the "Random Encounter" deck in an order of the player's choosing. Thus potentially setting up an easy random encounter for them on a future turn(s) and/or setting up their adversaries for a harder one(s) on future turns. For example, a player controlled Ace rolls a 1. The player can draw up to 5 cards from the top of the Random Encounter deck, secretly look at them and place them back on top of the Random Encounter deck in an order of their choosing. Change 3: Do not reshuffle the Random Encounter deck when depleted. I've found during my play testing of this wonderful game that reshuffling the Random Encounter deck can make the game drag because players can potentially have "Last Resort Random Encounters" for quite awhile. After making the decision to not reshuffle this deck, the game sped up significantly. Well, that's it! I've really enjoyed playing Hezzop and thank you for inventing it!
The Hezzop Pro Rules are finally up! th-cam.com/video/JlWrpJ6rSZs/w-d-xo.html We've added level battles, resistances and spell casting to promote a more fluid and strategic experience. Enjoy!
Two times. After drawing a card to start your turn, you have two moves. Assigning a card counts as one move. If you choose to assign a second, you can, but it'll end your turn.
Technically, it is ROLL play since there are dice involved. I believe the word you were searching for was ROLE. I apologize if this homonym confused you.
I do have intentions to release typed, updated rules with my next video. Unfortunately, my schedule has been a bit unpredictable this year, so I can't give you an exact time frame when this will all be finished. But I hope to get it posted within the next month.
Conceptually speaking, this is a pretty cool game. Im interested in trying it out, but i gotta ask, what inspired the name? "Hezzop" just sounds.......well, it just sounds like someone sneezing.
How much would it affect the game if you started it out with each of the 8 face cards having a random number card of the same suit attached to them? This would help avoid the "guess a number" situation if the person never attached a number before a fight. Also I don't know why the card dies if the opponent wins the challenge against him automatically on matching one of his cards. I think the attacker should also get the opportunity to get his number, and it would go back and forth until one person failed to match their numbers. .... And even better! Ditch the dice and get rid of that random factor in the game, and instead make it more about skill and decision. WHen you load up a card with numbers, that character chalenges whatever card he wants, and you match cards highest with highest against your opponent, with the lower card returning to the deck, and the one that runs out of cards first dies. If you can destroy your opponents face cards in a round, then that person loses the round. This creates tension as you don't know if you should hold out for a greater defense or go for the assault and hope for victory.
This game is great!! Kudos I thought of an extra rule how about the joker card be the same as the lowest face card in your party? So for example if I have a queen, a king, and an ace the joker would be a queen!
I would make a modification since guessing a number makes ZERO sense. All cards have 7 by default since it is the most common number rolled on dice. If you add a #7 to one of your cards that card is now immune to any 7 rolled. This is definitely a must. Also making the Aces BOTH an 11 and 12 makes alot more sense then using as a face card. You could use one joker each as a face with 5 possible add ons.
If you lose a random battle but have no number cards attached, do you lose your face card? If you have 3 face cards and win a random battle, do you still have to switch out the won card with an existing party member or do you simply increase your party number back up to the maximum of 4? What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow? Thanks for the excellent video, can't wait to play it!
This is genius! I have a couple of questions though. First of all, if you lose a random battle, do the random cards go back into their piles or get discarded? Also, does the random encounter ALWAYS have the max cards attached? because in the video you didn't attach anything to the ace when you did the random encounter with the jack.
I've noticed some have had trouble with audio on this video. For whatever reason, if you're trying to watch the video via a phone or sometimes a smart TV, the audio occasionally plays a lot lower. Your best bet would be to try and listen to it on a computer, or worse case scenario, with earbuds.
I AM listening on a computer and the audio is just as bad. The problem is on YOUR end, not ours! You used bad equipment or used good equipment badly, or dont know how to control your input and output gains....
I've made my own game built on the basics of this game but I've changed a fair bit of it. Would it be OK to go ahead and share it with friends and online if I'm mentioning that you were the inspiration for it?
For number cards we've simply taken the discard pile and reshuffled them into a new deck. While I've not played through a game where the face cards have been completely depleted, I would be tempted to refrain from reshuffling them, and let the game run its course. Otherwise, you could end up "Last Resort" battling your way until the cows come home...
A champion card without any number cards attached should have to roll a 12 to win, not whatever number they pick. If they can choose then they'll just say seven every time because it's the most commonly rolled number. But a 12 is not a card value. An 11 should have some kind of bonus too.
I have contemplated it. There are a few ways I could see a solo Hezzop work, however I feel they're lacking a strategic element. I know the game tends to work in tandem with blind luck, but I feel there are better ways to utilize that trait than simply rolling dice against yourself. I do have updated rules for dual play coming up (once I have the time to film them), including ways to incorporate three or more players. But seeing as I'm not the only one considering solo play a possibility, I'll definitely look into it.
No worries. Friendships are overrated. At least that's what my friend would say ;) Here's a solitaire style Hezzop which might be what you're looking for. th-cam.com/video/sWZPvRXD9ws/w-d-xo.html
I have had no issues on my end. Audio plays fine on both of my computers, and my phone. If I could duplicate the problem you are experiencing to resolve the hiccup, I would. I apologize if this has caused some frustration, but it's hard to fix a problem that isn't occurring on my own tech.
Uh....yikes! This should be called maybe something like "Combat Cards" or something like that as there is absolutely no role playing elements involved. It's a good effort and could be fun for pretty young kids,but not really for anyone over 8.
Something i didn't understand is when you start a random battle then win and switch one of your face cards if the face card has any numbers attached do you discard them or do you do something else?
@@TravanePhoenix oh, and if you have more then 7 cards do you have to discard the extras immediately or can you keep them until your 2 moves end (before your opponent draws the starting card) and then discard them?
You will need a deck per player, but yes, it's possible. You can have as many people as you can fit at a table, and play elimination style: out of cards and you're out. Typically with four or more I have a house rule that you can only challenge the person to your left or right. That way everyone in the circle can't gang up on one person.

Sormflaith exactly! so flawed. I stopped watching at that part.
I wouldn't allow that rule. Simply allow to put non matching color, but when called, those don't count.
Rolling an 11 or 12 makes sense. Perhaps a soldier with no weapon has to roll a double six in order to win. It's a lucky shot.
You could have a rule that party members can't challenge/be challenged for the first two turns (encouraging you to spend first 2 turns assigning cards), but still need a rule to incentivise assigning a card in the first place.

Change 3: Do not reshuffle the Random Encounter deck when depleted. I've found during my play testing of this wonderful game that reshuffling the Random Encounter deck can make the game drag because players can potentially have "Last Resort Random Encounters" for quite awhile. After making the decision to not reshuffle this deck, the game sped up significantly.
Well, that's it! I've really enjoyed playing Hezzop and thank you for inventing it!
The Hezzop Pro Rules are finally up! th-cam.com/video/JlWrpJ6rSZs/w-d-xo.html
We've added level battles, resistances and spell casting to promote a more fluid and strategic experience. Enjoy!
Two times.
After drawing a card to start your turn, you have two moves. Assigning a card counts as one move. If you choose to assign a second, you can, but it'll end your turn.
Technically, it is ROLL play since there are dice involved. I believe the word you were searching for was ROLE.
I apologize if this homonym confused you.
Amazing card game well done
Cool idea! I was wondering how I could integrate Hezzop into a TTRPG as maybe an NPC battle of something. Represent armies...
I do have intentions to release typed, updated rules with my next video.
Unfortunately, my schedule has been a bit unpredictable this year, so I can't give you an exact time frame when this will all be finished. But I hope to get it posted within the next month.
Conceptually speaking, this is a pretty cool game.
Im interested in trying it out, but i gotta ask, what inspired the name?
"Hezzop" just sounds.......well, it just sounds like someone sneezing.
Very cool, nice job!
So Ace goes with the face cards in this game?
I've always seen it with the numbers in place of the fact there's no 1 card.
I wonder if there's a way to make the suits thematic--for example hearts = hit points, clubs = combat, diamonds = treasure...
How much would it affect the game if you started it out with each of the 8 face cards having a random number card of the same suit attached to them? This would help avoid the "guess a number" situation if the person never attached a number before a fight. Also I don't know why the card dies if the opponent wins the challenge against him automatically on matching one of his cards. I think the attacker should also get the opportunity to get his number, and it would go back and forth until one person failed to match their numbers.
....
And even better! Ditch the dice and get rid of that random factor in the game, and instead make it more about skill and decision. WHen you load up a card with numbers, that character chalenges whatever card he wants, and you match cards highest with highest against your opponent, with the lower card returning to the deck, and the one that runs out of cards first dies. If you can destroy your opponents face cards in a round, then that person loses the round. This creates tension as you don't know if you should hold out for a greater defense or go for the assault and hope for victory.
This game is great!! Kudos I thought of an extra rule how about the joker card be the same as the lowest face card in your party? So for example if I have a queen, a king, and an ace the joker would be a queen!
I thought they could count as 6 cause there is only two of them
I would make a modification since guessing a number makes ZERO sense. All cards have 7 by default since it is the most common number rolled on dice. If you add a #7 to one of your cards that card is now immune to any 7 rolled. This is definitely a must.
Also making the Aces BOTH an 11 and 12 makes alot more sense then using as a face card. You could use one joker each as a face with 5 possible add ons.
If you lose a random battle but have no number cards attached, do you lose your face card?
If you have 3 face cards and win a random battle, do you still have to switch out the won card with an existing party member or do you simply increase your party number back up to the maximum of 4?
What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
Thanks for the excellent video, can't wait to play it!
The Basic Rules have been included in the description section. I hope this helps.
I love the idea.
You should make a 1p version
I had to make a bunch of alternate rules and players by adding the jokers and aces count as some kind of special nice idea though
This would be a great card collecting game.
Can I make it a card collecting game
This is really cool and fun
I love it
This is genius! I have a couple of questions though. First of all, if you lose a random battle, do the random cards go back into their piles or get discarded? Also, does the random encounter ALWAYS have the max cards attached? because in the video you didn't attach anything to the ace when you did the random encounter with the jack.
great idea!
7:07 Hmmmmmm... It actually depends on what cards, you are more likely to roll a 6, 7 or an 8 than a 2, a 3, a 4, a 10, an 11 or a 12!
I got distracted because of the pokemon music.. lol
Thanks! You're the best
I've noticed some have had trouble with audio on this video. For whatever reason, if you're trying to watch the video via a phone or sometimes a smart TV, the audio occasionally plays a lot lower. Your best bet would be to try and listen to it on a computer, or worse case scenario, with earbuds.
Travane Phoenix is it possible to make this a coop game? versus the face card deck?
I AM listening on a computer and the audio is just as bad. The problem is on YOUR end, not ours! You used bad equipment or used good equipment badly, or dont know how to control your input and output gains....
how many times can you assign number cards in one turn?
That was very fun and challenge.
sorts the deck
starts the video
oh yes hello this deck has already been sorted
XD
I've made my own game built on the basics of this game but I've changed a fair bit of it. Would it be OK to go ahead and share it with friends and online if I'm mentioning that you were the inspiration for it?
make sure if u do not have any cards under your party member guess 7 because your odds are way up vs any other number
...to roll a 7 using 2 dice
8:40 pokémon song?
how can i play this in 1p mode?
Try to defeat all the monsters
Or in other words. Set up the game normally, draw two cards, equip them, then random battle.
So when challenging an opponent, am I challenging a card of my choice or does my opponent pick which card to face my challenge?
What do you do when you run out of your face card deck or number card deck?
For number cards we've simply taken the discard pile and reshuffled them into a new deck.
While I've not played through a game where the face cards have been completely depleted, I would be tempted to refrain from reshuffling them, and let the game run its course. Otherwise, you could end up "Last Resort" battling your way until the cows come home...
Love this!
This is not an RPG, it's a more advanced version of the card game battle
A champion card without any number cards attached should have to roll a 12 to win, not whatever number they pick. If they can choose then they'll just say seven every time because it's the most commonly rolled number. But a 12 is not a card value. An 11 should have some kind of bonus too.
If you and your opponent miss, then you both get to roll again or the battle stands undecided?
14:00 definitely pokémon battle song
Could you make a single player version?
I have contemplated it. There are a few ways I could see a solo Hezzop work, however I feel they're lacking a strategic element. I know the game tends to work in tandem with blind luck, but I feel there are better ways to utilize that trait than simply rolling dice against yourself.
I do have updated rules for dual play coming up (once I have the time to film them), including ways to incorporate three or more players. But seeing as I'm not the only one considering solo play a possibility, I'll definitely look into it.
thank you i am looking for a good solo card game that isn't some strange form of solitaire, although my friends and i do enjoy a good game of hizzop.
Kumo Entertainment you could play solo by just doing random battles
what if all of your party has its maximum card limit? can u only challenge?
You can challenge, random battle, or draw a card. However, if you're already maxed out, I'd just keep challenging.
Can u play without dices?
Gunder Derek i was thinking equipped numbers are face down, and when you battle you flip them up. so the opponent doesnt see it till the battle starts
The google search engine has a built in random number generator, if you set it to 2-12 that’s the equivalent of rolling two six sided dice
Without dice or a computer, you can use two ace through 6 cards from a 2nd deck. Shuffle and draw two cards to simulate rolling two 6-sided die.
awesome
New single-player Hezzop is up! Introducing Hezzop Go! th-cam.com/video/sWZPvRXD9ws/w-d-xo.html
This game is fun for 2 players and solo(bot mode I added lol)
Can this be played alone. I have no friends
No worries. Friendships are overrated. At least that's what my friend would say ;) Here's a solitaire style Hezzop which might be what you're looking for. th-cam.com/video/sWZPvRXD9ws/w-d-xo.html
Thanks a lot! You're GOATED
Amazing
Volume is maxed and I can't hear you above my CPU fan. Turn up your gain FFS
I have had no issues on my end. Audio plays fine on both of my computers, and my phone. If I could duplicate the problem you are experiencing to resolve the hiccup, I would.
I apologize if this has caused some frustration, but it's hard to fix a problem that isn't occurring on my own tech.
Just use a D10
Re-roll on 1s
And where is the role playing?
But how do you win?
When your opponent is out of cards? I don't know, but that's how players are eliminated when there are 3 or more.
Music?
Uh....yikes! This should be called maybe something like "Combat Cards" or something like that as there is absolutely no role playing elements involved. It's a good effort and could be fun for pretty young kids,but not really for anyone over 8.
wow
I can't hear you
The volume is super low on this vid.
Something i didn't understand is when you start a random battle then win and switch one of your face cards if the face card has any numbers attached do you discard them or do you do something else?
Good question. Typically, I only switch out a face card I didn't invest anything into, but if there happens to be numbers attached I discard them.
@@TravanePhoenix oh, and if you have more then 7 cards do you have to discard the extras immediately or can you keep them until your 2 moves end (before your opponent draws the starting card) and then discard them?
@@Eden-fw7du If your hand exceeds 7 cards after you've used your 2 moves then you must discard the extras before your opponent's turn.
Thank you :)
Does anyone want to get together and play hezzop
Can't hear u
ok
205 sub
i can barely hear you.
You’re pouring the cards too fast! I dunno how much do I need to play
speak up
Plz speak louder
turn up your volume
the fedora man has spoken
can you play with more than 2 player?
You will need a deck per player, but yes, it's possible.
You can have as many people as you can fit at a table, and play elimination style: out of cards and you're out.
Typically with four or more I have a house rule that you can only challenge the person to your left or right. That way everyone in the circle can't gang up on one person.
