What is GURPS?
The '''Generic Universal RolePlaying System''', or '''GURPS''', is a [[role-playing game system]] created by Steve Jackson Games. It emphasizes a set of [[rules]] that can be used in any time or world. [[Fictional character|Characters]] are created using a [[Score (gaming)|point]]-based system. There have been four releases of the GURPS core rules and dozens of game supplements that extend the core rules with genre or setting-specific information. In 1990, GURPS became the focus of a Secret Service investigation when an as yet unreleased GURPS Cyberpunk game supplement was misconstrued by the Secret service as being a handbook for computer crime.
