Release [Chaosium] Out now in Hardback: Rivers of London - the Roleplaying Game

[Michael O'Brien]

​

Rivers of London: the Roleplaying Game is now available in hardcover!

Solve mysteries, catch criminals, and come face-to-face with the “demi-monde”—those who have been irreversibly changed by magic!

"A fantastic gateway into tabletop role-playing games… All in all, if this was your first ever role-playing game, you’re in good hands... If you’re a fan of the series of novels, this game is probably a must-have. Alternatively, if you’re looking for something that isn’t loaded with well-worn fantasy tropes, then this might be worth considering, especially for novice gamers." — British Fantasy Society.

"A superb realization of a much-loved series, dripping with character while offering fast and streamlined mechanics. Another classic in the making, and deservedly so... Chaosium have been pushing out great game after great game for years now, and this is no exception. A delight." — Paul Mackintosh RPGNet.

Rivers of London RPG Release Party in Berlin - May 1st​

"Ever since I can remember, I‘ve wanted my own roleplaying game“ - with these words, Ben Aaronovitch introduces the roleplaying game to his Rivers of London novel series. So here it is, Rivers of London: the Roleplaying Game, developed and published by Chaosium, publisher of the legendary RPGs Call of Cthulhu and RuneQuest.

Celebrating the release, you can join Ben Aaronovitch and Lynne Hardy, the principal author of the Rivers of London RPG in Berlin, Germany on May 1st!

There‘ll be drinks, a Q&A with Lynne and Ben moderated by Jason Durall (himself line-editor of Chaosium‘s RuneQuest), the opportunity to get your books signed and even to join a short game run by Lynne or Jason. The party starts at 6pm and will have to wrap around 9, so better be on time if you don‘t want to miss the best parts!

Good news! - after an unfortunate shipping delay to the antipodes, Rivers of London: the Roleplaying Game is now available from our Australian warehouse! Plus US, UK, and EU.

"The whimsical and at times humorous Urban Fantasy setting of Rivers of London makes it ideal as either a first TTRPG or a transition game for players looking to expand beyond Dungeons & Dragons. There’s just enough familiar fantasy stuff to be engaging, but not so much that it feels tired or cliched... It goes without saying that if you’re a fan of the novels, Rivers Of London: The Roleplaying Game is a must-have addition to the bookshelf, and stands alone in its own right as an excellent and accessible TTRPG with something to offer everyone." — GameOnAUS
