“Of the many TTRPGs played this year, Dragonbane stands out as one of the best.”  ScreenRant Review
  A legend is reborn. Dragonbane is a fantasy tabletop roleplaying game full of magic, mystery, and adventure, a reimagined version of the classic Swedish fantasy RPG Drakar och DemonerDragonbane was voted one of the most anticipated RPGs of 2023 at EN World and has recieved high praise in reviews since the release in August 2023.
Dragonbane is designed from the ground up to facilitate fast and furious play, with very little prep time and adventures that are a breeze to run. This is a game with room for laughs at the table, while still offering brutal challenges for the adventurers. 

A Dragonbane Quickstart PDF is available for free via the official website and at DriveThruRPG. Players worldwide are invited to design and publish their own supplements for Dragonbane, using the third-party license for the game.
