The team behind the highly acclaimed Beyond the Wall and Other Adventures, John Cocking and Peter S. Williams, have released a new RPG sword & sorcery RPG. Through Sunken Lands and Other Adventures, from Flatlands Games, is inspired by the classic tales of Lieber, Moorcock, and Howard, to name but a few authors. The 218 page PDF is available right now at DriveThruRPG for $9.99.
From Flatland:
Danger and glory await the bold…
In the common rooms of the great city’s countless inns, in the bathhouses of the merchant quarter, and before the altars of a thousand gods, brave and desperate adventurers meet and make plans. They leave every day and seek their fortunes in the Sunken Lands.
