Black Oath Entertainment has released a new high fantasy themed roleplaying game with Riftbreakers. The game possesses a bit of an MMO focus as well. The 300 page hardcover is available for $35.00 or grab just the PDF for $15.00 at DriveThruRPG.
About the game:
Riftbreakers is a fantasy Role-Playing tabletop game for one or more players. Within it, you take control of a single character and embark on all sorts of adventures, undertaking challenges that will see you traveling the land of Kaethor, which is being besieged by strange magic storms that unleash terrible monsters in their wake.
Riftbreakers provides a complete toolkit for enjoying a wide variety of fantasy playstyles, with a focus on adventurous, high fantasy style of storytelling. It covers character creation, spells and magic, encounters and combat, monsters and treasure, and all the associated game mechanics necessary to recreate the feeling of a Massively Multiplayer Role-Playing Game, but analogically. This means that all the standard elements found in games such as World of Warcraft or The Elder Scrolls Online are here: randomly generated loot, detailed crafting, dungeons, and meaningful character progress. It also provides all the necessary tools, such as oracles and dozens of random tables, to play the game without the need for a Game Master, which means you can easily play the game by yourself, or co-op with friends.
Riftbreakers features:
- A D100 ruleset, quick to learn and master. Within it you’ll find rules for all sorts of magical abilities and savage melee combat, exploration, crafting, and more.
- Classless character creation, with progress built around what you focus on learning and what gear you equip. Want to be a deadly warrior, a cunning thief, or a master of the elements? It’s up to you!
- MMO-like gameplay, with random loot, encounters, difficulty tiers, quality levels, crafting, and more!
- A strange yet familiar world, full of unique variations of the most common fantasy tropes. Explore the town of Kar Helos and save it from the unrelenting attacks of magical beasts and other threats!
- Robust solo tools that allow you to play the game without a Game Master, either solo or co-op! If you’re a GM wanting to run a Riftbreakers game, life couldn’t be easier: use the dozens of random encounter, travel and Rift exploration tables to instantly create an adventure for your players on the fly!
- An expansive bestiary with over 80 unique monsters, each one of them with their own action table to determine how they act in their turn, and their own loot table, to see what your character gains after slaying them!
- Random quests, dungeons and encounters ensure a limitless replayability.
