Macuahuitl is an old-school game featuring gritty sword and sorcery adventures across the Aztec Empire set during the rise of the Triple City Alliance. This game is in its final hours on Kickstarter.
Created by Jon Torres, known as “The Basic Expert” online, who created Atomic Punk and Cowpunchers Reloaded. He has previously created art for games running from Call of Cthulhu to Traveller to The Expanse RPG.
It is the age of the 5th sun. The Mexica (Me-Shee-Ka) people settled and conquered the valley of Mexico. The grand city of Tenochtitlan is feared throughout the valley. The Tlaxcala Confederacy and other kingdoms and cities resist the might of the Aztecs, but for how long?
Players will roll up characters and select a class from iconic warrior societies from within the empire. As a group, they must survive not just the human foes of the Mexica, but the supernatural forces hailing from the 13 heavens that lurk in the wilderness as well.

Torres says that Macuahuitl will feel familiar to anyone who has played the classic dungeon-delving rules created by Gary Gygax and Dave Arneson. The game, however, adds many unique mechanics and ideas that fit the Mesoamerican setting.
