While most generic systems offer a generic core rules book and one or more optional settings books, Tiny D6 takes the opposite approach. They include the entire system's core rules inside each setting book, tweaking it slightly based on the setting (eg. human-exclusive settings have Archetypes, while multi-race settings have Heritages).

Thus, there is no one "Tiny d6 rulebook", onlt a variety of different setting-specific books, such as Tiny Frontiers (space), Tiny Living Dead (zombies) or Tiny Wastelands (post-apocalypse).

To match, we'll offer three separate recommendations, with the first one (Frontiers) discussing Tiny D6 overall, and the second two (Living Dead and Wastelands) focusing on how Tiny D6 adapts differently for those settings.
