Role Playing Games

  “In Eregion long ago many Elven-rings were made, magic rings as you call them, and they were, of course, of various kinds: some more potent and some less. The lesser rings were only essays in the craft before it was full-grown, and to the Elven-smiths they were but trifles – yet still to my mind dangerous for mortals. But the Great Rings, the Rings of Power, they were perilous.” In the twilight of the Third Age, three realms of the West-elves still endure in Middle-earth. By the power of the Three Rings, they exist as a testament to a time that was. But not only the Elves remember. As Sauron gathers his strength to bring war to Middle-earth once again, he plans a devious vengeance against those who humbled him long ago.Keepers of the Elven-rings™ is a supplement for The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying™, the official tabletop roleplaying game based on the works of J.R.R. Tolkien. Chapter 1: Where The West-elves Still Linger describes the realms of Lórien, Rivendell and Lindon and those who dwell there, including the Elf-lords who are their guardians. Chapter 2: The Days Darken provides the Loremaster with details about Sauron’s schemes against the Immortal Folk, including possible events, Adversaries, and Loremaster characters. Chapter 3: Landmarks outlines twelve sites of interest, including locations mentioned in The Lord of the Rings™ and others created specifically for the game. The Appendix contains rules to play High Elves and Wood-elves, and introduces guidelines to create Elf-lords, powerful characters who can reach level 20 and are therefore suited for epic level play.

You are caught in the wake of the Delving Machine: a device that bores through rock, blood, bone, space, time and reality, towards the scintillating terror of a crimson eternity. As your journey progresses, you doomed delvers will encounter a trio of antagonists who each seek control of the machine to shape their ideal future: the arms dealer Ptolemy Bay, the aelfir politician Aramos, and The One Who Waits In Ashes, a ragged figure who appears all too familiar. You’ll witness the dreadful impact of Zenith abilities – your Zenith abilities – on the places that they journey through. You’ll venture via uncanny passages to Summersisle, home of the humans, on the eve of their greatest tragedy. Ultimately, if you survive long enough, you might just stand before the Heart itself… This 144-page release is dripping with evocative prose from author Gareth Ryder-Hanrahan, grotesque full-colour illustrations by Sar Cousins, and immersive layout by ENnie award-winning Minerva McJanda. A complete narrative campaign for Heart: the City Beneath which guides your group from your first steps into the streets of Derelictus, to the deepest depths of the Heart itself.

New player character Beat sheets designed specifically for Dagger in the Heart, which chain a character’s fate to the Heart and the Delving Machine. Dozens of new creatures and NPCs to encounter, from eccentric Junk Mages to body-snatching insects, and worse. 40+ new landmarks to explore, overflowing with unique resources, fallouts, and plots to ensure every delve is distinctly beautiful and horrifying. 20+ new delves ready to use as paths and connective tissue that drags your party inexorably towards the bleeding wound at the centre of reality. 35+ detailed full colour illustrations by Sar Cousins which paint a picture of life, and death, in the Heart.

In 2016, Grant Howitt decided – flippantly – to write a one-page roleplaying game every month and release it for free online. Little did he know that the barely-intelligible pen-and-ink scratches he turned out would go on to define his career, and the shape of roleplaying games, for years to come. Played by thousands of people all over the world, Grant’s one-page games run the gamut from strange to silly, daft to deadly serious, and powerfully original to potentially copyright-infringing. Each volume contains (at least!) 13 games in their original single-page format, complete with SECRET BACK PAGE material for every game that’s never been released online. Plus, where relevant, the longer games Grant and his collaborators have released are printed in full-colour, saddle-stitched booklets. Each game has been written, illustrated (sorry) and laid out entirely by Grant, unless someone else helped him, in which case it says so. As of 2024, all these volumes come in US Letter size, in a sturdy cardboard folder with a spine. These games (and their back pages) are: JASON STATHAM’S BIG VACATION. Make sure that the international superstar has a nice time on his holidays, despite the efforts of a vengeful sniper and his own unpredictable nature. Back page: BRYAN CRANSTON’S BIG EXPANSION. (Definitely) written by famous actor Bryan Cranston, this expansion for JSBV features new characters, loads more locations, bonus secret missions for the characters and the Statham Master, and several facts about Bryan Cranston. LAST CHRISTMAS. You’re a time-travelling festive ghost who attempted to teach Ebenezer Scrooge the error of his ways but instead gave him a heart attack – and that, somehow, caused the world to end! Can you avert the apocalypse by using your GHOST POWERS? Back page: LAST CHRISTMAS: IT’S A WONDERFUL LIFE EDITION. Uses the same rules as LAST CHRISTMAS, but this time the time-travelling ghosts have to help Jimmy Stewart not get drunk and jump off a bridge. Contains rules for hopping back and forth between the light and dark timelines in the film! CRASH PANDAS. Why are you, a raccoon, embroiled in the high-stakes world of illegal LA street-racing? Can you all drive the same car at once without crashing? Find out! Back page: CRASH OVERRIDE. An expansion for Crash Pandas, featuring rivals, another random equipment table, fun things to crash into, and exciting locations for street races. THE FIVE. Years ago, the corruption – gears and oil and filth and grease – overran the world, killing the Queen. You are the last five knights of the Queen, fighting to honour her memory even as your bodies are wracked and changed by the corruption. Back page: THE FEW. You fight monsters in the dark places of the city, and you’re infected with whatever it is that makes them monsters. You hope it’ll kill you before you hurt someone you care about. GIANT GODDAMN ROBOTS. A very silly mech combat game where you draw pictures of giant robots and then throw dice at them in an attempt to cause damage and win the day. Back page: METAMAGICIANS. A roleplaying game with five rules that you will write as you play. Each player is given power words that they must include in rules that they introduce into the game; see if you make something beautiful, or even just functional. PRIDE AND EXTREME PREJUDICE. It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single woman in possession of a giant war machine must be in want of a fight. Take up arms against the invading French forces and find yourself a husband! Back page: GIANT ROBOT CLUB. Everyone thinks you’re a nerd for taking part in extracurricular science clubs, even if you do get to build giant robots. But now that aliens are attacking the school, it’s finally your chance to impress someone enough to convince them to go to prom with you! NO MORE ROOM IN HELL. A GMless game, or a game with four GMs; take control of individual facets of a story that sees desperate survivors struggle to survive in enemy territory – whether that’s war-torn cities, the hunting ground for ghouls, or a state that believes you cannot be allowed to spread your ideas. Back page: UNPLAYABLE GAME POEMS. Some of them are kind of playable. Includes MARK RUFFALO’S RUTTING BUFFALOS, GILLIAN ANDERSON’S BANNED HER SONS, ELECTRIC CHAIR 2: SPECTRAL BOOGALOO and WHERE’S THE BEEF? RETROGRADE. You just woke up. You don’t remember a thing. People are hunting you, and you need answers – fast. A cyberpunk amnesia game in the style of Flashback. Back page: REVENANT. A fantasy hack of Retrograde where you wake up after dying, hungry for revenge. TRAMFORCE. Following a disastrous Brexit and increased coverage of tram lines in the UK, the government have resorted to using power-armoured cops to police city centres – even if they have to remain tethered to the trams or risk running out of power. You are those cops. You… are TRAMFORCE. Back page: IT’S GOLF! Promotional material that we found in Grant’s uncle’s attic detailing a mysterious golf-based board game/RPG hybrid. Features classes such as Roughian and hints at the evil forces of Bad Golf. ADVENTURE SKELETONS. You’re a skeleton. You’re bored of being told to guard a boring old dungeon by a boring old wizard. Time for an adventure! You set off to the human dungeon (“village,” in their tongue) in search of wrongs to right and things to fight. Back page: BONUS CRUD FOR ADVENTURE SKELETONS. Two D20 tables containing rules for random body parts and magic items. Includes multiple rules for geese. THE STREETS OF KARAZUN. Evoking Fighting Fantasy gamebooks in vibe if not mechanics, this A7 rules booklet unfolds to reveal an illustrated map of Karazun. Play cut-throat adventurers on a quest for glory and plunder in this dangerous port-side city. Back page: BENEATH THE STREETS OF KARAZUN. Flip over the paper and you’ll reveal a map of the mysterious catacombs and secrets that lay beneath the city streets – the midden witches, the ogre king, and stranger things besides. THE BEAST. You’re a sub-par 18th-century monster hunter in the arse-end of Eastern Europe; you work for the Baron, and you hate him, but he pays your wages. You’re tasked with hunting down The Beast that’s been terrorising the locals and; you will most likely die, mad and alone, in some godforsaken forest. Best prepare yourselves. Back page: THE FOREST WITCH. An illustration of the kind of thing you’ll be expected to murder as part of your job. UNFINISHED BUSINESS. You died, and you’re really angry about it. You can possess people, and you will, in an effort to exact revenge on the people that killed you and your friends. Contains full rules for unfortunate supernatural side-effects and ghostly powers. Back page: HELL BOUND. You’re an insubstantial demon sent from hell to capture escapees and drag them back for eternal damnation – you can only further your goals by possessing luckless fools and throwing them into conflict with your targets.

This pack includes 13 main games and 13 back pages, which are: THE WITCH IS DEAD, where you play murderous woodland animals attempting to gain revenge for the death of their mistress. Back Page: LITTLE HELPERS, in which you play demons accidentally summoned by a good witch and now must help her go on a date to the county fair using only your nightmare hell-magicks THE GOLDEN SEA, a D20 game of traders and mystics setting sail across a trackless ocean of sand Back Page: Additional material for The Golden Sea, including equipment, portents, encounter tables and Upsearchings, crystalline miracles from the Goddesses that grow up from beneath the dunes WE THREE KINGS, in which you play the three dudes from the bible and stop King Herod’s plot to kill the baby Jesus with swordplay, necromancy and two-fisted sorcery Back Page: THREE KINGS’ HILL, an unrelated fantasy dungeon that nevertheless contains an eye the size of a small house ADVENTURE DICE, a simple numberless storytelling game for kids, which includes special dice to cut out and colour in Back Page: An adventurer generator for Adventure Dice, or really any fantasy game WE THAT REMAIN, a survival horror game played with a single deck of cards, in which you will all probably die Back Page: A map of the Space Station Elysium, designed for use with We That Remain, that details an abandoned space colony that accidentally opened a portal into Hades HONEY HEIST, a game in which you are a criminal bear with two stats: CRIMINAL and BEAR; also contains an optional D8 hat table Back Page: 36 spells for Honey Heist, including Summon Chandelier, Summon Mexican Standoff, and Jesus Take The Wheel (or: Summon Jesus) BIG GAY ORCS, a game in which you play a load of orcs trapped in a doomed fortress, and generally make out a bunch Back Page: SAD GAY SPACE ROCKS, a hack of Big Gay Orcs, which emulates the Steven Universe Cartoon JUSTIFIED ANXIETY, a game set in a suspiciously familiar paranoid dystopia where you shoot trouble for Companion Machine Back Page: TRUE PARANOIA, a game which involves dumping all your dice in a pile in the middle of the table and punishing your players whenever they dare to touch them THE RAPID AND THE RIGHTEOUS, a fast and furious game about living your life a quarter-mile at a time Back Page: SPIN THE BOTTLE, a game played by spinning a bottle, about a tumultuous teenage party HACK THE PLANET, in which you are a console cowboy or cowgirl, and the man is trying to keep you down so you jack in, hack in and get revenge; contains a grid of inaccurate techno-jargon to use at random to give you benefits to computer use Back Page: RUN THE SHADOWS, in which you and a bunch of other street samurai put the metal in the meat and do corporate espionage for Mr Johnson GENIUS LOCI, in which you play a post office in a 1960’s Suffolk village, and you eat the spirits of other buildings to survive invasion from the city Back Page: GENIUS LOCI: MALL EDIITON, which is largely similar to the regular game except it takes place in a late-2000’s midwestern mall and you can eat inquisitive teens for power DEAD CHANNEL, a game of straight-to-VHS horror, where each character has an individual set of misfortunes and injuries that shape the plot as they play out Back Page: DEAD CHANNEL: CHANNEL HOPPERS, which includes rules for getting bored and changing the channel only to have the characters and monsters from the horror film invade other TV shows TRASHKIN, a fantasy game in which you play the races who get left out of the stories: raccoon-kin, ratboys, half-possums, goat girls, etc, then embark on a stupid quest for very little gain that will probably get you all killed Back Page: TRASHKIN: THE ZINE, which includes rules for Ibis-kin, Trash Bardic Music, alternative dice rules and a fun wordsearch with rude words in it

This item is a pre-order item with an expected release date of Q4 2025 Orders containing a pre-order items WILL NOT SHIP until the final pre-order item is able to be shipped. Dates and product details are subject to change as new information from the manufacturer is updated. THE COMPONENT KIT You can play Hollows with a printout of the tactical grid, some standard 20-sided dice, and an assortment of coins, other dice, and tokens from games you already own. We know this, because that’s how we played Hollows throughout most of its development. The thing is, the component kit is nicer. It contains distinctive tokens for every aspect of Hollows’ gameplay, making it easy to keep gameplay flowing smoothly without asking “which one of these is Doom, again?”. And it gives you more of Sam’s art, which we highly recommend. Hollows is a tactical powerhouse of a TTRPG that’s both easy to learn and satisfying to master. It’s based around a simple D20 mechanic where actions can fail, succeed, or succeed brilliantly. Failure is always interesting – it exposes the Hunter to greater risk, creating moments for other players to step in, support, and help hold the line.  Character creation and advancement is simple but powerful. The Weapons a Hunter chooses to wield and the abilities they select for them open up hundreds of possible character builds. Players select new abilities with every kill and choose which ones to make permanent when they baptise themselves in the blood of a Hollow’s Lord. Gameplay moves elegantly between exploring a Hollow’s poisoned world – rules-light and roleplay-heavy – and many-v-1 tactical boss fights unlike anything you’ve seen in a TTRPG. Hollows’ combat keeps the player characters right at the heart of the action, with the battlefield changing and developing with every action. It encourages players to work together, paying close attention to each other’s moves and devising clever, cooperative strategies to take down Entities far bigger and stronger than they are. The world of Hollows is rotten and more putrid by the day, infested with awful realities that swell like boils around the worst people in the Isles – Hollows. If there’s to be any hope at all, Hollows need lancing. Armed with your Weapons – manifestations of humanity’s worst instincts poured into forms of shot and steel – you and others like you are the only things powerful enough to do it and human enough to still care. Designed to echo video games like Dark Souls, death is expected and intended. Dying slows a character down and gives the Hollow more opportunities to work against them, but it also gives a Hunter a chance to come back stronger.

The only advantage you’ve got is a sackful of theatre masks that let you do magic as long as you perform a play alongside your heist. Some knowledge of 17th Century Italian humour recommended but not required. HEARTSWOOD – with Sarah Gordon (Vicious Creatures) Once upon a time, someone broke her heart. Now she’s descending into the depths of her psyche to mend it. Play arcane facets of someone’s soul following a traumatic breakup and explore a cursed woodland to rebuild their life. BACK PAGE: Street Writer. Competitive slam-poetry game. Sarah’s list of Roller Derby-style names for contestants based on classic authors really makes it. LEXINOMICON – with Becky Annison (Bite Marks, Lovecraftesque) Explore the hidden world that pulses beneath our own by finding messages hidden in any old book you can find; edit, modify, cut-up and generally ruin second-hand novels to uncover the truth. BACK PAGE: Additional content for Lexinomicon including a vague cosmology, some moody bible verses, and expanded rules for play. WRECK THE HALLS – with Thryn Henderson (Ryne, Small Town Skeletons, Jolene) This game extrapolates the wretched self-centredness of the UK’s ruling class into a cyberpunk future and tasks you, a gang of holiday-themed cyberpunk rebels, to steal Christmas from absurdly wealthy people using improvised and subverted technology. BACK PAGE: The Mall. Alternate adventure for Wreck the Halls where you navigate a shopping centre filled with rival gangs, playing one off against the other to prosper.   THE RULES OF THE DEEP – with Jay Dragon (Wanderhome, Yazeba’s Bed and Breakfast) Strange OSR-style game where you must delve as deeply into forgotten subterranean ruins as you can before you die. Legacy campaign played by the GM; each group of players changes the world for the next. BACK PAGE: Tricks. Magic spells for The Rules of the Deep; some useful, some creepy, some creepy and useful.  CAPTAIN SWANHANDS – with Jeeyon Shim (The Longest Rest, The Snow Queen) Not a one-page game! An eight-page game, with art and animal facts. You’re a superhero! You have swan necks for arms and swan heads for hands. Can you save the city, find love, and hold down your day job at the office (despite the swan thing)? BIRD CRIMES – with Xalavier Nelson (Space Warlord Organ Trading Simulator, Hypnospace Outlaw, An Airport For Aliens Currently Run By Dogs) Thanks to a difficult life full of bad choices, it’s come down to this: smuggling illegal birds on board a red-eye flight from JFK to London. Turbulence strikes and the birds escape their restraints: can you recapture enough of them before landing to pay off your debts? Has full rules for what happens if the birds get hold of the Air Marshall’s gun. BACK PAGE: You Can’t Make An Omelette Without Breaking A Few Legs. Hack of Bird Crimes which sees you, a gang of mafia enforcers, attempting to win a cooking contest between ruling crime families. Has a D20 table of horribly violent abilities you must somehow apply to making a souffle.  DEATH WAS THE ONLY ROAD OUT OF TOWN – with Alex Roberts (For the Queen, Star Crossed) Psycho-noir power trip experiment which sets players the task of escaping from someone else’s dream by murdering them; think Sin City by way of Fear and Loathing with a side order of the Hays Code. Players are treated mean by the GM but have ample opportunity to get their own back by spending tokens that bend and break the storyline and force their tormentor to dance to their tune. BACK PAGE: Immortal Darkness. What if being a vampire was fun, though? Solo journaling game where you’re an undying antihero with great hair, loads of sexual partners, twin silvered Desert Eagles with specialist ammo and a big castle all to yourself.

In 2016, Grant Howitt decided – flippantly – to write a one-page roleplaying game every month and release it for free online. Little did he know that the barely-intelligible pen-and-ink scratches he turned out would go on to define his career, and the shape of roleplaying games, for years to come. Played by thousands of people all over the world, Grant’s one-page games run the gamut from strange to silly, daft to deadly serious, and powerfully original to potentially copyright-infringing. Each volume contains (at least!) 13 games in their original single-page format, complete with SECRET BACK PAGE material for every game that’s never been released online. Plus, where relevant, the longer games Grant and his collaborators have released are printed in full-colour, saddle-stitched booklets. Each game has been written, illustrated (sorry) and laid out entirely by Grant, unless someone else helped him, in which case it says so. As of 2024, all these volumes come in US Letter size, in a sturdy cardboard folder with a spine. These games (and their back pages) are: SYSTEM SHUTDOWN: As a team of ultimate cyberpunk badasses, can you survive enough to enact your terrible mission of revenge after the digi-bank forecloses on your implants? The longer play continues, the fewer limbs, competencies and senses the punks have access to. BACK PAGE: BIG MAN ADVENTURE! You’re a BIG MAN and you have one stat: BIG.  NIGHT HAG: Grim urban horror game where sleep paralysis sufferers team up to reveal the truth: malevolent spirits are sapping the life from them when they’re unconscious. The only option left to them is to hunt down and kill the night-hag that’s been plaguing their dreams. BACK PAGE: Additional content for Night Hag including magic rules that will kill the user, firearms rules that will kill the user’s friends, and more. SEPULCHRE: Powered by a cut-down version of Spire and Heart’s Resistance System (and set in the same universe), Sepulchre puts players in the role of relic-hunters in a vast subterranean arctic arcology. BACK PAGE: Black Market Black Magic, additional content for Sepulchre. Additional details on all the districts evocatively but vaguely alluded to on the front page, and some illegal spells you can buy.  NICE MARINES: The Space Marines are renowned across the galaxy as immortal killing machines. What happens when they try to do some diplomacy? Charming Warhammer 40,000 fan game (with enough names changed so we don’t get sued) with the potential to Succeed with Catastrophic Collateral Damage. BACK PAGE: A Fete Worse Than Death. Hack of Nice Marines which tasks evil Iconoclast Marines to spread the fearsome gospel of their dark gods at a local village fair. ORCBALL: Orcball is a cross between the riots that happen after other, more respectable sports and Burning Man. As new rules are handed down from mushroom-addled shamans after every goal, can your team of scrappy underdogs win the championship? BACK PAGE: Orcball Fun Facts. How was orcball invented? What’s the largest game of orcball ever played? How does the religious hegemony of Bog-Al-Kurruk complicate sports reportage? Is elfball a thing? All these questions and more are answered.  GOBLIN PUNKS: You’re a no-good goblin kid with a distinct lack of prospects and a gang of similarly snot-nosed goblin friends. What are you going to do today? Includes full rules for goblin slang, rewarding players for inventing their own shared language. BACK PAGE: Lists of names for things that I struggle to come up with names for when I’m GMing, such as: an Orc, a Goblin, a Sexy Wizard, A Gruff Bartender, A Friendly Shopkeeper, A Tiger You’ve Put In Someone’s Bedroom Without Them Knowing About It, and more. BRIARWOOD: Two (!) page game which sets players on a recovery mission deep into shadowed and lawless woods. Jolly little OSR thing with a magic and abilities system, as well as a cool drawing of a tree that you can use as a map. BACK PAGE: MIRROR/MIRROR. There’s another you that lives in the mirror. Tonight, you’re going to need their help. Unusual game with a two-sided character sheet that unlocks different abilities depending on which You you are. KAIJU GIRLS: You’re a teenage girl with all the usual worries: school, parents, love, etc. Also when you get upset you turn into a sixty-foot behemoth and stomp downtown to pieces. Can you unravel the alien conspiracy to destroy the world AND get good marks on your exams? BACK PAGE: Girl Kaiju. A drawing of Godzilla with some cut-out femme accessories that you can stick on. I’M A LOVER, NOT A FIGHTER: Hack of 2016 classic Honey Heist. You’re a handsome duelist of some kind, and you have two stats: LOVER and FIGHTER. Can you rescue the Queen from the Baron’s ball? BACK PAGE: As many copyright-infringing Honey Heist hacks as I can come up with, including stat pairings such as: VAMPIRE and MASQUERADE, SPACE and COWBOY, FAST and FURIOUS and DUNGEONS and DRAGONS. STONE THE CROWS: If Guy Ritchie directed a film in which a load of birds had to steal the Crown Jewels from the Tower of London, this would be the game of that film. Contains a full map of the Tower, personal motivations for all the magpies and that, and cast details for all-male and all-female versions of the movie. BACK PAGE: How to: Create Your Own Wildly Popular Free-to-Download Animal Crime One-Page TTRPG. Deeply self-referential “guide” which devolves into dejected ranting about crabs. ADVENTURE CALENDAR (BOOKLET): This is not a one-page game! This is a collection of 25 tables that combine and overlap to form a winter wonderland that gradually develops into a permafrost hellscape over the course of a campaign. Fully illustrated by professionals. (Merry Christmas!) ONCE UPON A CRIME: Kick in the back door of a beautiful fantasy kingdom and steal anything that isn’t nailed down. The more junk you’re carrying, the more powerful you become but the greater chance you have of dropping it and causing a catastrophe. BACK PAGE: Scenarios for Once Upon a Crime which are mostly gags about fairy tales that Chris and I wrote down one afternoon. Plus: a drawing of a sleeping pig wearing a crown. PREDESTINED: Final Destination the RPG (basically). You all cheated death. Now, death hunts you down with a series of complicated, hamfistedly-foreshadowed and honestly improbable “accidental” fatalities. Can you avoid kicking the bucket, even though the big firework contest is taking place at your favourite racetrack TONIGHT? BACK PAGE: D71 Terrible behaviours for throwaway characters who the audience are excited to see die, such as: laughing at a gravestone, shooting a horse when they think no-one is watching, pressing every button every time they get into a lift, and shouting hard into a pram. ADMINISTRATIVE CARNAGE: Follow-up game to Nice Marines which puts players in the role of the endlessly put-upon mortal servants of immortal Space Marines. Can you earn enough second-hand glory, perform your sacred duties, and survive long enough to retire? BACK PAGE: A Galaxy at War. Hacks for Administrative Carnage allowing you to play space goblins helping out a space barbarian or iconoclast cultists serving an evil Space Marine. FETCH: The product of several years of therapy: a gruelling, physically painful and emotionally challenging solo journaling game in which you, a year after discovering that you are a changeling copy of a real person, descend into the deep woods to burn their eternal kingdom to the ground and die on your own terms. Probably the most upsetting thing I’ll ever make. BACK PAGE: Just the words “I EXIST” written out by hand around three hundred times.

Back page: Five further adventures featuring the Beautiful Space Pirates. DUNGEONSCRAWL: The palace of the Briar Prince invades the world you know when the stars are right. Generate the shifting corridors as a group and play through to seize your heart’s desire with a simple D20 system. Back page: Tiger Woods’ Tiger Woods, a game where you must escape a mad golf theme park. GOAT CRASHERS: You’re a cheeky little goat and you want to party. Only problem is, humans keep trying to kick you out! Are you going to stand for that? Back page: Ghost Crashers, which is the same thing, but about ghosts rather than goats. KOBOLD ENDEAVOUR: You’re a scaly dragonling whelp on a mission for the MIGHTY DRAGON KING: to pocket as much stuff as possible from a rival dragon’s horde before you get killed. Your only skills lie in elaborate distractions. Back page: 50 Unusual Requests from the MIGHTY DRAGON KING. REVERSE BEASTMASTER: Written in collaboration with Nate Crawley, this madcap assault on the senses sees you taking orders from cruel animals with poor impulse control and no concept of forward planning. Back page: LOYER GAM, a grotesque game where you must “do law” until a judge “stops you.” SAD VAMPIRE BOYFRIEND: A surprisingly grown-up, almost diceless game where you play mortals and vampires trying to find love in a damned world. Back page: THREE GOBLINS IN A TRENCHCOAT, a game you play by stacking dice, to counteract the seriousness of the front page. SEANS BEAN STAR IN: A VERY NORTHERN CHRISTMAS: Inscrutable high-concept farce where you play five Seans Bean each and must attempt to film a Netflix holiday special without all of you dying. Back page: FORCE PATROLLERS, which uses the same rules to simulate an underfunded Super Sentai show. SEXY BATTLE WIZARDS: You have three stats: SEXY, BATTLE and WIZARD. You live in a flying castle. You are wanted in several countries for collateral damage caused whilst trying to save the world. Back page: SEXY BATTLE MAGIC ITEMS including the Party Bomb, Instant Horse and Decanter of Endless Bees. THE WITCH HOUSE: You are transformed into a bestial shape by a hideous witch and must escape before what little left of your humanity is washed away with invasive magic. Back page: SERVANTS OF DARKNESS, where you have to orchestrate a national-level cult and its insidious business. THIS IS NOT A PLACE OF HONOUR: Play pilgrims acting through the trials of the star gods who brought life to this planet millennia ago; then, play the luckless, terrified humans who crash-landed a colony ship into it and would be remembered as star gods in the distant future. Back page: Several ideas for games that rhyme with or sound similar to the original title. WAKE: You’re in a coma; you awaken in an unreal stitched-together hospital ward where hungry phantoms prowl the depths. Are you prepared to kill your way out? Back page: An extended map of the Ward. WHAT I DID ON MY SUMMER HOLIDAYS: Slapstick, low-consequence adventures in the vein of classic British comics; you play a rookie witch and her vaguely magical friends desperately trying to have fun in a boring seaside town. Back page: WHAT I DID ON MY FINAL ADVENTURING EXAM, which is broadly similar but you play students of St Evocatia’s School for Adventurous Girls, and your final exam is probably some sort of dungeon-crawl. The bundle comes with a zipped collection of PDFs of the front page games available for easy download.

Shattered City is a roleplaying game about occupation and revolution in a fantasy world ravaged by war. Together you’ll build a city and sketch out its wonders and scars. You’ll take the reins of factions working to bring freedom to this city – or the foreign Guild sent to bring it to heel. You’ll make the heroes of this city: bold warriors, civic leaders, and uncanny mystics. And together you’ll tell the tale of this place’s struggle for freedom. As flashpoints threaten to set the city ablaze, as you fight to pull down the occupying forces or work within their systems to earn yourself prosperity, as you work with the others to find moments of beauty and hope, what sort of community will you build? And what mysteries will you uncover along the way? TELL YOUR OWN SAGA Shattered City matches the faction-scale gameplay of Legacy: Life Among the Ruins with Tabula Games’ bizarre and beautiul Mysthea universe to tell a story of empire and rebellion in a crystal-encrusted land. With dozens of character and faction options, pages filled with beautiful art, and tools to help shape your story as it spans years of time, Shattered City has everything you need to play. Make your own faction in the resistance with 9 different House playbooks: Clandestine revolutionaries, city-priests, titan hunters and more. Define your occupiers with 5 different Guild playbooks: merchants, nobles, soldiers, priests or scholars enforce their rule in distinct ways. Step into the shoes of one of 15 Hero playbooks, and change your playbook over your campaign: from a hardy Toiler to a reliable Sentinel to a respected Veteran. Build a web of alliances as you plot your revolution. Explore a fantasy world encrusted with crystalline magic. Walk the lonesome road of a single hero with the solo play mode.

The Modiphius 2d20 roleplaying game system has been adapted and developed by head of RPGs Sam Webb and line manager Virginia Page from Star Trek Adventures (developed by Nathan Dowdell; Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of, Mutant Chronicles), based on the original 2d20 system design by Jay Little (Mutant Chronicles, Star Wars: Edge of the Empire).

One of the original artists for the Homeworld video game, Aaron Kambeitz, has created the cover art for the roleplaying game whilst art directors Katya Thomas (Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Star Trek Adventures, John Carter of Mars, Conan: Adventures in an Age Undreamed Of) and Kris Aubin (Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Achtung! Cthulhu) have been working to provide fantastic new artwork to bring Homeworld: Revelations to life!   “This is Fleet Command.” A 300 page full-colour royal size (234x156mm) sewn hardback with faux leather finish, and debossed and foiled Homeworld logo on the cover, designed for ease of use at the table.  Step inside the fleet and for the first time discover the personal story of the Hiigarans The history of the Kushan people - From their origins on Hiigara, into exile on Kharak, and back again.

Unglorious, the Necro-fantasy RPG lets you play the role of an adventurer who passed away due to their carelessness and has now risen again to seek the glory they couldn’t obtain when they were alive. Settle your unfinished business in the land of the living, face the land of the dead’s exhausting bureaucracy and join the most heroic deceased warriors! It’s time to rise and fight once more… and hopefully do better this time around.  Settling your scores is important, but it’s not enough to become Heroes of the Orchard. If that’s your goal, you’ll need Tales from the Crypt - a manual that includes 10 adventures and 3 new places to explore between the world of the living and the world of the dead, written by illustrious guests who took part in the very first Unglorious campaign… because the rusty old armor you were buried in isn’t enough to make you a great adventurer!

You’re dead. Well, it’s no surprise considering how recklessly you launched into adventure. You thought a sword, a map and some sunscreen would be enough to face hungry fiends and cursed forests? Tell me again, how did you die? …Good heavens, I’ve heard some stupid deaths in my time, but this one takes the cake! But fear not, all is not lost. Never mind the fact that you don’t even have one shred of flesh left on you, because now you have the opportunity to settle your unfinished business, to gain the glory you so coveted and to continue the journey that you cut short in such a silly way, so you can gain access to the most exclusive afterlife available! You are now in the Orchard, the world of the dead, a sort of metropolis inhabited by corpses. You will find there are many laws to follow, queues to respect and paperwork to sign in order to travel from here to the world of the living… but hey, even if it seems like a bleak and boring world, you can make a lot of friend who are as stup– I mean, as eager for adventure as you are, with whom you can embark on dozens of adventures without worrying about the passage of time (or a pitchfork piercing your chest). Well, go now. This is your death certificate and this is your sword. Of course it’s rusty! What did you expect? After all, it died too. Unglorious is the RPG that begins where all others end… with the death of your character! Embark on this adventure beyond the limits (and limitations) of life and face all that the World of More will throw at you. But don’t be scared… there probably won’t be anyone more frightening than you! Unglorious, the Necro-fantasy RPG lets you play the role of an adventurer who passed away due to their carelessness and has now risen again to seek the glory they couldn’t obtain when they were alive. Settle your unfinished business in the land of the living, face the land of the dead’s exhausting bureaucracy and join the most heroic deceased warriors!
