Kickstarter - Wrath of the Wyvern: Dark Fantasy Solo TTRPG


The Witcher meets Skyrim in Wrath of the Wyvern, a solo RPG like no other. Venture into the Highlands and face fierce wyverns!

I'm always intrigued by solo RPGs. They are always a temptation, even if I never play most of the ones I have.

Wrath of the Wyvern looks very tempting. I feel dark fantasy is a good fit for solo RPGs, and this looks to be a solid choice. I'm hoping the deck of cards is more intuitive than other RPGs I've played that used cards.

In the tempestuous Umbral Highlands, monstrous Wyverns rule the skies, and humanity is on the brink of extinction. In Wrath of the Wyvern, you are the last hope, a lone hunter tasked with reclaiming a dying world, one battle at a time. 

Inspired by Scottish Celtic mythology, this brutal solo TTRPG puts you in command of every decision, every battle, and every choice that will shape the future of the Highlands. Powered by the Fury Engine, Wrath of the Wyvern replaces dice with a Fate Card system, ensuring that every encounter is fast-paced, strategic, and cinematic. 

  • A tactical solo RPG that combines exploration, survival, and cinematic combat.
  • No dice—fate is determined by the draw of a card.
  • Replayable open-world hexcrawl with branching storylines & faction influence.

Bundle of Holding - Mörk Borg Core



I have more supplements for Mörk Borg than I'd care to admit. It's a simple system, and I'm not sure how well it would work for a long-term campaign, but for 1-shots and convention play, it's a great fit.

Adventurer! This all-new Mörk Borg Core Bundle presents English-language .PDF rulebooks featuring Mörk Borg, the rules-light Old-School blackened artpunk doomsday tabletop roleplaying game from Swedish design teams Ockult Örtmästare Games and Stockholm Kartell, published by Free League Publishing. A doom-metal album of a game, a spiked flail to the face, Mörk Borg is about miserable bastards and heretics enduring a bleak, dying world. Maybe you're a tomb-robber with silver glittering between cracked fingernails – a mystic who would bend the world's heart away from its inevitable end – a Sacrilegious Songbird singing sweetly, though your soul screams. Play Mörk Borg as-is, or pick it apart for your own Old School Revival homebrew. There's no more metal way to mark the world's demise.

This all-new offer gives you the English-language core rulebook, three supplements, play aids, and the rulebooks for the standalone companion games CY_BORG and Pirate Borg, all for a price even a Gutterborn Scum can afford. For just US$9.95 you get all four titles in our Mörk Collection (retail value $45) as DRM-free ebooks, including the complete Mörk Borg core rulebook, Cult: Feretory and Cult: Heretic, and the GM Screen.

And if you pay more than the threshold price of $25.02, you'll level up and also get our entire Borg Collection with three more titles worth an additional $50, including the CY_BORG Core Rules, the Pirate Borg Core Book, and Free League's recent Mörk Borg magic-item supplement Ikhon.
