''Kobolds Ate My Baby!'' is an independently published humorous role-playing game from Creator/NinthLevelGames, based around its UsefulNotes/BEEREngine. The players assume the roles of kobolds, small furry creatures considered to be cannon fodder by practically everyone, including other kobolds. Dangling at the bottom of the villainous food chain as they are, their chaotic attempts to scratch out survival frequently collapse under the weight of their own stupidity.

They're also perfectly happy to [[MonstrousCannibalism eat each other]] should babies be in short supply. Their stupidity often causes them to die in droves, something they compensate for by being very, very numerous.

* ImpossiblyDeliciousFood: To kobolds, babies are this - that's why King Torg (All Hail King Torg!) wants them for his feast. This is even mechanically reflected in the rules - if a kobold screws up while holding a baby, it's very easy for them to lose control and just eat the baby. [[ChaoticStupid And kobolds screw up a lot]].

King Torg (All Hail King Torg!) is hungry, and he has a job for you: to go to the nearby human town and bring back the freshest, tastiest, plumpest human babies you can find to sate his gourmet palate. If you don't, he will eat you--after all, the meat of a fellow kobold is pretty tasty as well.

Dangling at the bottom of the villainous food chain as they are, their chaotic attempts to scratch out survival frequently collapse under the weight of their own stupidity.
The game pokes good-natured fun at many fantasy role-playing stereotypes, and encourages boisterous, ludicrous behavior among the players. The first edition of the game was printed in 1999, followed by the third edition on 2001. The Super Deluxx edition was published by Creator/DorkStormPress in 2005.

!! All Hail King Tropes!
* BlackComedy: Considering half the game focuses on kidnapping babies for a feast and the other focuses on the hilarious ineptitude of the player characters, this is a given.
* CannonFodder: The kobolds in general are numerous and stupid enough to count, but the player characters themselves are the stupidest members of their tribe.
* ChaoticStupid: The kobolds in general, with a special emphasis on ''stupid''.
* EatsBabies: The entire kobold species.
* AFeteWorseThanDeath: The plot is kicked off when King Torg (All Hail King Torg!) announces that he's throwing a party the next day, and the feast won't be complete without human babies. The pantry, alas, is bare of babies, and if you can't get any, you will take their place as the main course.
* InvasionOfTheBabySnatchers: This is half the point of the game (the other half being kobolds dying horribly).
* MonstrousCannibalism: Kobolds consider other kobolds to be the second tastiest after human babies.
* RunningGag: One of the house rules is that every time King Torg's name is mentioned, all players must immediately shout, "ALL HAIL KING TORG!"
* WeHaveReserves: Possibly the only thing that keeps kobolds from going extinct is the fact that there's a ''lot'' of them.
