Following a successful crowdfunding project, Exalted Funeral will be releasing the unique looking roleplaying game Land of Eem from Ben Costa and James Parks. The game promises a setting which mashes up post-apocalyptic adventure, high fantasy, and Muppet-like creations. The standard set slipcase includes three volumes clocking in at over 700 pages and will carry an MSRP of $125.00 when it arrives in December.
About the game:
Land of Eem is a game about adventurers exploring and discovering the remnants of a forgotten, better age. Players portray lore-seeking travelers, fortune-seeking pioneers and adventure-seeking heroes in a time devoid of them.
But for all its post-apocalyptic doom and gloom, Land of Eem is a lighthearted game with a sense of humor. Set in the world of our two fantasy series Rickety Stitch and the Gelatinous Goo and Dungeoneer Adventures, the game combines Lord of the Rings high fantasy epicness with a heavy dose of Muppets-like whimsy and a dash of Mad Max dystopia.
Land of Eem emphasizes player creativity and collaborative storytelling, with character abilities that allow players to invent and shape the world around them. The game is more about roleplaying, teamwork, exploration, and finding lost treasures, than it is about always fighting monsters–though that’s definitely part of the game!
The standard set includes the Core Rulebook (approx. 200 pages), a Bestiary (approx. 180 pages), and the first Land of Eem Sandbox Campaign Setting: The Mucklands (approx. 400 pages), a realm of 6 unique regions filled to the brim with locations, NPCs, and quests.
