DIE: The Roleplaying Game!

Based on the Image comic book series by Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans, DIE: The Roleplaying Game throws you into a world of fantasy-horror where RPGs meet reality. Play as a flawed people who get pulled into a magical RPG setting and must decide if they want to return home, or become something new…

As with many fantasy roleplaying games, the players will be able to build their fantasy character as one of five classes: you could play the charismatic Dictator; the supernaturally lucky Fool; the vicious Emotion Knight; the technomagic Neos; or the divine Godbinder.

But this is not the only character you will play. You will also need to build your ‘real world’ equivalent in-game. Who is the meta-player you will be running? What are they like? What challenges do they face? If they entered a fantasy world, would they really want to go back to their old lives?

The GM will play as the Master, a meta-wizard who is able to travel between worlds. They balance the odds of space and time against the players… but are not afraid of outright cheating.

Will you be able to save yourself from this world of tantalizing adventure? Or will a vengeful Master smite you before you can even start?

DIE: The Roleplaying Game comes out digitally in July 2022, and comes out with physical copies in November 2022! Back your copy here!

Blade Runner: The Roleplaying Game!

Blade Runner: The Roleplaying Game is almost here! The most anticipated TTRPG of 2022 finally has a release date. Get ready to hunt down Replicants, fight criminals, and face the moral quandaries of life in this new RPG from Free League.

As mentioned in our previous article about this RPG, Blade Runner will take place in the year 2037. Replicants have just been introduced into the public, becoming forced labour both on Earth and off-world. But some Replicants have deviated from their protocols and escaped. It is your job to hunt these rogue Replicants down and retire them. But as you come face to face with these androids, will you be able to finish the job? Or will you let the go?

The game will be powered by the Year Zero System, Free League’s famous dice system. You will attribute a die to each of your attributes, ranging from a d6 to a d12. Then attribute a dice to each of your skills. With each check, you will roll your accumulated dice, plus whatever other bonuses you have. If you roll 6+ on one of your dice, that is a success. With each die that rolls a 6+, you can perform wilder and wilder actions to achieve your goals.

It is time to enter into the dark world of the cyberpunk noir future. Whether you retire these runaway Replicants is up to you. But do not expect them to go down without a fight.

Physical copies of Blade Runner: The Roleplaying Game come out in November 2022, but if you back your copy now, you will get a PDF copy once the Kickstarter ends! Back your copies of the game here!

Brindlewood Bay!

Get your knitting needles, tea bags, and a magnifying glass! In the style of Murder, She Wrote and Golden Girls, Brindlewood Bay throws two unstoppable forces against one another – occult murder mystery and sleuth grandmothers.

In this murder mystery game, you play as a grandmother living in the coastal town of Brindlewood Bay. With your partner gone and your family having already flown the coop, you rely on your friends to get through day to day life. However, something isn’t right in Brindlewood. You will have to work together to solve each mystery, both normal and paranormal!

Each session is built to be an episode over the course of a season. Each session consists of special moves that you can utilize to get bonuses on your rolls or save your character’s life by cutting to a commercial break!

But don’t think this makes the grannies invincible. Every game has the potential of pulling you into the Void, leading your character further into madness. If you find yourself wearing the Crown of the Void too often, you may find your grannie retiring into darkness itself…

Brindlewood Bay comes out in September 2022! Back your copy here!
