For those living in North America, today is Indigenous Peoples' Day. It is a day of celebration and commemoration of the history and culture of indigenous American tribes. As part of this holiday, the developers of the TTRPG Coyote & Crow are giving away copies of their Core Rulebook.

Coyote & Crow Indigenous Peoples' Day Core Rulebook Promo

The announcement of this Indigenous Peoples Day promo of Coyote & Crow was made on the official Coyote & Crow Games' Twitter account.

According to the post, PDFs of the Core Rulebook will be available at a "pay what you want" amount until 12 p.m. PST today. The post concludes with the developers asking to support fellow Native creatives where possible.

What this means is if you go to Coyote & Crow Games' official website, add the Core Rulebook to your cart, and check out, you will receive a 100% off Indigenous Peoples Day discount. There is still an option to provide a tip if you wish.

Overall, this promo is a sharp bit of marketing by the developers. The Core Rulebook of Coyote & Crow normally sells for $70 for physical and $25 for PDFs.

In addition, the inherent fantasy of the TTRPG aligns well with Indigenous Peoples' Day itself. Unlike D&D or Cyberpunk RED, this setting portrays a world where colonial powers never set foot in North America, allowing the natives to prosper and develop their own modern society.

This fantasy is reinforced by the developers all being from Native tribes. The rulebook isn't just a game, it is introducing new audiences to the indigenous peoples' philosophies, culture, and values through considerate design.

The world of Coyote & Crow has only grown. Their online store page includes prewritten stories, custom dice, enamel pins, the dice game Naasii, and even novels.

If you have ever been interested in this TTRPG, now is the time to give it a look. But the clock is ticking.
