Finding treasures like the giant mimic mini for Dungeons & Dragons is one of the great reasons to be a gamer. There is also a modest Lovecraft adventure for D&D as well as a massive 1400 page setting with augmented rules. There is plenty of support for OSR games, locations for HarnWorld, and extras like cards and miniature docks for fantasy RPGs. There is also one sci-fi adventure and an RPG based on a Netflix show.

Fateforge Tetraology Box Set by Studio Agate
- SYSTEM: Dungeons & Dragons
- PRODUCT TYPE: massive boxed set with four hardcovers and more
- RETAIL PRICE: $199.99
- OTHER RPG COVERAGE: Change the World as a Fate-Chosen in the Fateforge Core Rulebook
- DESCRIPTION: The big one! Look at this thing: the 1400 page Fateforge Tetralogy (Adventurers, Grimoire, Creatures, Encyclopedia), Game Leader’s screen, three adventures (Fort Ardracco, The Chronolith, The Butterfly Dirge), two maps (Eana and Free city), and a Player’s Guide. Fateforge is an epic, sword and sorcery roleplaying game using augmented rules for D&D. PCs discover the universe of Eana and its many unique civilizations, find the lost portals of the Travelers, and ascend the stairs of the Fateforge. Plus there is a cool sounding adventure called The Butterfly Dirge which really should be performed by Iron Butterfly. And I thought 3.5 was a big ruleset at 960 pages.
