Unlock the RPG Experience of your Dreams.

It’s so easy for the immersive magic of RPGs to get smothered by complex game math. That’s why we distilled a new role-playing game that runs on nothing but pure imagination. The Epic of Dreams unbinds fantasy roleplay, keeping math to a minimum, while pushing story, action, and drama to the forefront. As long as you can remember your backstory and just 2 core stats, you can even play without pens, paper, or dice!

Basilisk Edition Features:

Rules Light, Drama Heavy, Mythic Gameplay: Featuring in-character Soliloquies, the Epicsews “Story” and “Game Stats” together seamlessly. The Epic uses world mythology as a touchstone to breathe deep meaning into any setting you can dream.

The Circle of the Muse: Our “diceless-yet-d20-friendly” core mechanic where Hero players guess to match number ranges on our 20-point Circle of the Muse.
