7th Sea First Edition

Novissa Spola is a tabletop tactical RPG being developed for VR, mixed reality, and PC. Inspired by classic tactical RPGs and the physical experience of playing around a tabletop, Novissa Spola combines strategic turn-based combat, character building, exploration, and a fantasy campaign designed to be played solo or with friends. The game is currently in development, but a playable demo is already available. The demo gives you a chance to experience the tabletop-style gameplay and tactical combat that form the foundation of Novissa Spola. Visit the official website www.honestcabbage.com to play the demo, view the trailer, and stay up to date on development. Development is ongoing, with the full game planned to expand the campaign, characters, world, combat systems, and cooperative experience.

7th Sea Second Edition is a swashbuckling tabletop roleplaying game of high adventure, intrigue and romance in Théah, a magical continent inspired by 17th-century Europe, published by John Wick Presents in 2016. It was written by John Wick, Mike Curry, Rob Justice, Mark Diaz Truman and Jesse Heinig. AEG transferred the publication rights to John Wick Presents in 2015, and the second edition was crowdfunded on Kickstarter in March 2016 with the core rules appearing in June 2016. It won six ENNIE Awards in 2017. In 2019 Chaosium acquired 7th Sea and its rights, with John Wick joining Chaosium as creative director, and the line is now sold through Chaosium's store. Later books added the Crescent Empire, the New World, Ifri and the Woven Land. The system directly replaced 7th Sea First Edition (1999), although it is a new set of rules and not a revision of the original. Description Players take on heroes who uncover global conspiracies, explore the ruins of a vanished race and protect the rightful rulers of Théah from villains. The Game Master (GM) runs the story and the villains, and the game's structure, built around personal Stories, suits campaigns more than one-shots. A reviewer described it as a narrative indie game dressed up as a traditional one. The game asks a table to be comfortable with negotiating the fiction and with a GM who plans scenes in advance. The setting chapter runs to 96 pages in a hardback of about 300 pages, and players may expect more rules than the game actually uses.

13th Age is a heroic fantasy tabletop roleplaying game built on the d20 rules tradition, published by Pelgrane Press. The first edition was released in August 2013 and designed by Rob Heinsoo, lead designer of Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition, and Jonathan Tweet, lead designer of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition. It won the 2014 Silver ENnie Award for Best Rules. The Second Edition, funded on Kickstarter in May 2024 and released in 2025, splits the core rules into a Heroes' Handbook and a Gamemaster's Guide, reworks the nine core classes, monsters and magic items, and is designed to stay fully compatible with first edition books. The system is heavily inspired by Dungeons & Dragons 3.5, with several ideas borrowed from 4th Edition. Description Players take on heroes tied to the Icons, thirteen archetypal figures of power in a default setting that is meant to be reshaped at the table. The Game Master (GM) runs a story in which the characters' backgrounds and personal ties to the Icons drive the plot as much as the monsters do. Play favors big fights and big gestures over careful dungeon bookkeeping. The game asks a table to be loose with the setting. Players write their own history and invent a trait that has no rules attached, and the GM is expected to fold those into the story. It suits groups who like crunchy d20 combat but would rather invent than look things up.

The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying is a tabletop roleplaying game of journeys, fellowship, and creeping Shadow in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle-earth, published by Free League Publishing in collaboration with Sophisticated Games. It is the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (5E) sister line to Free League's own The One Ring, adapting that game's setting and structure to the 5E rules under the Open Game License (OGL), with a core compendium released in 2023 and a boxed Starter Set following in July 2025. It is a supplement rather than a standalone rules text: it does not reproduce the 5E basic rules, so a table needs the D&D rulebooks (or access to them) to play. The game is the successor to Adventures in Middle-earth, Cubicle 7's earlier 5E take on Tolkien's world, and a 5E counterpart to The One Ring, whose original designers were Francesco Nepitello and Marco Maggi. Description Players take on heroes drawn from six cultures of Eriador, the northwestern stretch of Middle-earth, in the year 2965 of the Third Age, when the Shadow is gathering but the great wars are still decades away.  The Game Master (GM) runs a world built around travel, hospitality, and quiet dread rather than dungeon delving: parties plan routes across rivers and mountain passes, hold councils with the people they meet, and spend downtime between adventures recovering from what the road did to them. The game asks a table to accept a lower-magic, slower-burning Tolkien tone than a standard 5E campaign - characters stop at level 10, evil leaves a lasting mark on a hero's spirit, and winning is as often about enduring a journey as clearing a room.
