For any of you not familiar with the term, TTRPG stands for Tabletop Roleplaying Game. The RSK Roleplaying Game is separate to the board game and is played in a different way.
Whilst both are played on the tabletop and published by Steamforged Games, a roleplaying game is a game of open imagination. Unlike a board game, which usually has a more defined structure with a pre-designed board, cards etc, roleplaying games have infinite possibilities! All you need to play is a core book that gives you the rules of the world you’ll be exploring, a pen, some paper, and some dice. Plus, a Game Master to run the game (which could be you!), and some friends to form an adventuring party with. Or, you can even play solo!
What's in the book?
RuneScape Kingdoms: The Roleplaying Game is a fully illustrated, hardback book that contains everything you need to create immersive fantasy roleplaying campaigns set in Gielinor, and send your characters on adventures inspired by RuneScape and Old School RuneScape lore
It’s a core book, which means it includes a complete roleplaying system, designed to be easy to learn, even if you’re new to roleplaying games. This system is unique to Gielinor, developed by Steamforged to really capture the essence of playing RuneScape and Old School RuneScape on the tabletop.
