5 Fantasy TTRPG Worlds You Need to Discover
When you think of Fantasy in tabletop role-playing games, the classics usually come to mind: Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder, or even Warhammer! But Fantasy goes far beyond these three iconic universes. There’s a whole range of unique worlds waiting to be explored.
Here are 5 Fantasy settings to create unforgettable TTRPG campaigns with your group! All of these worlds can easily be adapted for Amsel Suite, our role-playing software.
Ryutama: A Journey-Focused RPG
Ryutama is a role-playing game about travel and friendship. In this adventure, every step of the journey becomes a story in itself.
If you love the worlds of Hayao Miyazaki, creator of My Neighbor Totoro and Spirited Away, you’ll fall in love with Ryutama. Its setting and characters are heavily inspired by Miyazaki’s creations.
Rather than focusing on combat, Ryutama emphasizes exploration and everyday life in its world. It’s the perfect game for a relaxing session and an excellent choice for introducing younger players to tabletop RPGs.
Odyssey of the Giant: A Solo Fantasy RPG
If you enjoy solo role-playing games or want to give them a try, Odyssey of the Giant is a great pick. In this Fantasy RPG, you play as the chosen Guardian, walking alongside one of the last Giants and guiding them through the shattered lands of Uvaluut after the Cataclysm.
This RPG offers a beautiful, immersive experience, with plenty of random tables to help shape your journey. To track your progress, you can also use Tome, our campaign management tool.
Fabula Ultima: A JRPG Adventure
If Japanese-inspired worlds are your thing, Fabula Ultima is the RPG for you. Players take on the roles of heroes who can become true explorers while engaging in dynamic battles—unlike the previous games mentioned.
The setting of Fabula Ultima gives Game Masters the freedom to create diverse and open-ended story arcs. It draws heavy inspiration from Japanese video games, especially the Final Fantasy series.
If you use Lore, our worldbuilding software, you can easily adapt Fabula Ultima’s universe for multiple campaigns.
Wanderhome: Cozy Fantasy
Wanderhome is a combat-free world inhabited entirely by animals. The changing seasons shape the stories and adventures of the players. Relationships with NPCs also play a key role in this game.
If you’re looking for a soothing and immersive experience, Wanderhome is an excellent choice. Plus, it’s perfect for short one-shot campaigns.
Against The Wind: A Cooperative Fantasy
If you’re searching for a Fantasy RPG, Against The Wind might be just what you need.
Playable solo or cooperatively, this game casts you as a magical nomadic hero navigating a harsh climate dominated by violent winds.
Fantasy isn’t always about dungeons and dragons—there’s a vast world of unique settings waiting to be explored with your players!
