Tell stories, vote on best.

Alternatively this:

>character creation
State 3 facts. One has to be where the character is from. One has to be what the character did. One has to be what friends/enemies he/she made doing it. All situations where those facts are relevant, that character can say an extra sentence in scene using these. A character may not have more than one extra sentence from facts.

Have each character pick a strong attribute (acumen, dexterity, vigor). The character can say an extra sentence in scene relevant to that attribute.

>gameplay
Each person gets 2 sentences to describe what their character does every go-around in a scene unless their facts/attribute applies. A scene is any situation that merits any kind of organization to play in. Other players can "donate" up to 2 sentences to a person currently speaking. However that means they forego that amount of their own sentences and are left with their fact/attribute sentences if they apply.

Add any rules you like to this.

As a fellow /out/doorsman I highly advise against bringing dice if you will play around a campfire. It's dark, they might get lost, or they might fall in the fire. Plus it adds needless rolling.

Remember to keep it fair as the GM about those sentence limits, but also remember that you're there to mostly have fun.

Be safe, and have fun!

Look up Wushu Open.

Something that works great for mixed groups with some sense of genre is 1001 Nights. You need some dice, but you only roll them at the end of the story. Everyone's a scheming bastard at the sultan's court and tells stories to insult each other. It has nice gimmicks to help developing characters even in other games.

Another great game with rules simple enough to explain as you go is Don't Rest Your Head. Only one dice pool roll each scene, mostly. And the theme fits nicely with telling creepy stories. It's a ride though, the GM doesn't get a moment of rest throughout.

I think you can play Deadlands entirely with cards, possibly Dogs in the Vineyard as well. Fate has cards as dice as a mod, and FAE is really simple.

I have played Dread around the camp fire, and that uses Jenga. I think rolling every round doesn't work well, but I've done that, too with anything from CoC over WoD to DnD.

But the best camp fire games are simple and fast. That doesn't have to mean unsophisticated, just uncomplicated. Character sheets that have only 2 or 3 numbers on them, or no sheets at all.

RPG designed for play while hiking.

Seconding Dread if you can fit Jenga into your pack.

Serves me right for not inb4-ing it

This might be right up our alley, thanks anon

Sounds flexible and good for larger groups, I like the system. Is it called anything or is it a homebrew?
Good call with the dices, too. Will try to avoid it or maybe bring some shitty ones.

Thanks for the tips, nice selection indeed.
I will most likely try to keep it somewhat simple though, Don't Rest Your Head sounds interesting for sure. Especially given we will camp out in the vicinity of an old medieval execution location.

Thanks for the pointers, people.
Much appreciated.

How come I've never heard of this? Sounds awesome

Also, I might look into Dread aswell. I like the horror vibe when deep innawoods. Atleast I like the idea of it..

Bumping a good question

Get a 100% plastic deck of playing cards. Personally, I've had a custom deck printed up with eight suits instead of the standard four, but even a standard 52-card deck gives you a huge number of games. Because they're plastic, you don't care if they get dirty and you can literally wash them off in a stream.

With a bit of creativity, you can use that deck to play a bunch of card games usually sold as custom decks, like The Resistance, Coloretto, Battle Line, etc.
