Check out EN World's official review of Untold: The Game, published by Ignitus Innovation.
for many gaming groups, UNTOLD’s innovations might be exactly what they have been looking for in an RPG – fast-paced, simple rules, portable, scalable, and diverse enough to make their role-playing time well spent. Although somewhat lacking in setting, UNTOLD does open up new vistas for game masters to develop on their own – and booster packs to add more plot and content to the game, if desired.

[title]Cubicle 7's Lord of the Rings RPG[/title]


Cubicle 7 has sent along info and an art piece from their upcoming (August 2011) Lord of the Rings RPG. The first release in the line will be The One Ring™: Adventures over the Edge of the Wild.


The adventure begins five years after the events of The Hobbit. The defeat of the Dragon, the ousting of the Necromancer and the stunning victory of the Battle of Five Armies has made the land a much safer place. The Free Peoples of Wilderland are looking beyond their own borders for the first time in generations. Merchants are opening up previously-abandoned trade routes, bringing prosperity to the region and renewing bonds of friendship between long-estranged cultures. But while Lords and common folk become complacent in their new-found security, much evil still lurks in Wilderland. From the Orc-holds of the mountains to the dark and corrupt depths of Mirkwood a darkness waits, recovering its strength, laying its plans and slowly extending its shadow.

Small companies of heroes set out to explore the newly-opened frontiers. Whether their goal is to protect their homes, recover the treasures of a lost age or carry out the orders of their King, they could find themselves in the front lines of the battle against the ancient enemy, in adventures over the Edge of the Wild.
