Colonial Gothic and Shadow, Sword & Spell are powered by the same rule system. All you need to play are two 12-sided dice. Once you know the rules, you can easily play both games.

One Rule

Every action, regardless of whether your character is firing a musket, or intimidating a merchant, is handled the same way: roll the two d12s (2d12), and if the result is equal to or greater than the given Target Number (or TN), the action succeeds. Simple as that!
