A roleplaying game of adventure and fantasy in the age of King Arthur and the Britain of folklore.

Romance of the Perilous Land is a game very much inspired by the oldest fantasy roleplaying game created in the 1970s, but is also its own creation, with easy-to-follow rules that put you right into the action. Romance of the Perilous Land is firmly set in the world of British folklore, from the stories of King Arthur to the wonderful regional tales told throughout this green and pleasant land. Creatures are beings of wonder and terror, rare, and often hidden until awakened or angered by the machinations of humanity. In the Perilous Land, heroes will not face flocks of dragons, but will hear legends of a single Long Worm that has existed since time immemorial. Magic is similarly mysterious and otherworldly, and its mastery is the reserve of a powerful few.

Romance of the Perilous Land
is a roleplaying game of magic and adventure set in a Britain steeped in folklore and the tales of King Arthur. This is a world of romantic chivalry, but also of great danger, with ambitious kings, evil knights, and thieving brigands terrorizing the land while greedy giants, malevolent sorcerers, and water-dwelling knuckers lurk in the shadows. As valiant knights, mighty barbarians, subtle cunning folk, and more, the players are heroes, roaming the land to fight evil, right wrongs, and create their own legends.
