Blacksad: The Roleplaying Game is a full color 168-page hardcover book. It's illustrated with art from the comics and includes information and characters from the five volumes of the comic series.

Blacksad: The Roleplaying Game is divided into various chapters and sections to make the search for information easy. Content includes:

• Introduction. An initial look at roleplaying worlds and this one in particular.
• Chapter 1: Characters. Everything you need to know about creating a character and about the non-player characters (the secondary characters portrayed by the game master).
• Chapter 2: Rules. In this chapter we explain how to play a roleplaying game. You need a handful of six-sided dice to play. These dice simulate a story's unpredictability.
• Chapter 3: Script. The game master is responsible for the vast majority of the story. We devoted an entire chapter to advice on running roleplaying games in general and to running a Blacksad game especially.
• Chapter 4: Game Setting. In this chapter, we give more tools for the game master to use. We focus on describing the scenes of the game where the comic’s action takes place and we also describe some of the typical places that frequently appear in the noir fiction genre.
• Chapter 5: Cases. And last but not least, we offer a set of stories for the game master to “warm up” before they start creating their own.
• Character Sheet. At the end of the book is a blank character sheet.
