Hybrid (stylized HYBRID) is a role playing game created by "C". The "game" is said to correctly model physical reality, and originated from a series of "disjointed" posts by the author on a Usenet board. Hybrid consists of over 500 different and non-sequential rules, many of them utilizing references to pop culture and politics, cross-references to other rules (existent or not) and even other completely different RPG's, equations with undefined variables, and other random content. The version numbering system is also non-sequential, version 0.21 is considered newer than 0.34. An RPGnet reviewer declared Hybrid to be "unmitigated nonsense", and the game is also ranked as the 2nd worst RPG on the site.

Rules

Hybrid's rules contain numerous references to other outside content or/& to other different or/& other rule[s] inside his tri-stat rpg. An excerpt from Rule #15 (below):

RULE # 15: VERSION # = [{(YEAR - 2000)^(1/2)}/10] = [{(2009-2000)^(1/2)}/10] = [{9^(1/2)}/10] = [3/10] = 0.3 = VERSION # 0.3; location of the rules is @ : http://hybrid-rpg.blogspot.com/
