A Roleplaying Game of Magical Words
You have another self, in another world. In the waking world, you might be an artist, a mystic, or someone for whom dreams are their only escape. In Dreamland, you could be a jeweler, a beggar, or a queen.
Explore an eternal fairytale world outside of time. Travel to marvelous lands and strange cities, create marvels, face dragons and monsters, or fall In Love. Even cheat death itself…but guard your Memories of waking life, for without them, you will never awake.
Inspired by Lord Dunsany, Michael Ende, Kij Johnson and HP Lovecraft, Dreamland is a tabletop roleplaying game written and illustrated by Jason Bradley Thompson (Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath graphic novel, Dungeon Babies, ENnie-winning artist for Swordfish Islands and Dungeons & Dragons). With a unique core mechanic using a deck of 300 Word cards, players shape the reality of Dreamland by telling stories that bend, and sometimes break, the Five Pillars of Dreamland: Wonder, Mystery, Loathing, Passion and the Faraway.
