	Games - Microgame

A microgame is a small board game, wargame or role-playing game packaged in a small set. Microgames enjoyed popularity during the 1980s. The term generally refers to board wargames or role playing games which were packaged and sold with instructions and maps or playing surfaces either printed in a booklet format or as one large sheet folded until it became "pocket sized" (approximately 4"x7"). Game pieces (also known as chits or counters) were printed on one or more sheets of thick paper which the player had to cut for themselves rather than the die cut cardboard sheets included with most board wargames.

Some publishers of microgames include:

Metagaming (defunct)
Steve Jackson Games
Cheapass Games
Microgame Design Group (defunct)
