      The PDF version of the Shadowdark RPG core rules! Old-school gaming, modernized.

      Shadowdark RPG is a critically-acclaimed tabletop fantasy RPG that raised $1.3 million on Kickstarter in March 2023!

      "Feels just like the ideal version of a game I was playing forty years ago, but forty years better." 

      Matt Forbeck, New York Times Bestselling Author and Award-Winning Game Designer, Forbeck.com

      "A grimdark witches' brew of B/X, real-time mechanics, and the best random charts I've ever seen." 

      Professor Dungeon Master, Dungeon Craft

      "The perfect jumping-in point for 5e players interested in the OSR!" 

      Baron de Ropp, Dungeon Masterpiece

      Simple, clean, familiar but also refreshingly different. This has quickly become my go-to system."

      What Is Shadowdark RPG?

      In Shadowdark RPG, you and your group of crawlers use magic, steel, and wits to delve into mysterious ruins, lost cities, and monster-infested depths.

      Wondrous treasures and long-forgotten secrets await you! But don't let your last torch burn out, or you could be swallowed by the Shadowdark...

      5E players will find what they've been waiting for: an intuitive and complete TTRPG that serves as a seamless bridge into the heart of the Old School Renaissance.  

      Old-school gamers will find a system that is familiar and nostalgic, but with major quality-of-life upgrades that modernize the old-school experience. 

      Your legend awaits, crawler. 

      Lift your blade, light your torch, and plunge into the unknown depths of the Shadowdark!
