The Realm of Gaian Enoch - A Dark, Post-Apocalyptic Fantasy RPG

The world as it was is over. The War of The Ashes rent civilization asunder, and it left nothing but ruin in its wake. There is no time for rest... no time for healing. There are horrors that lurk on the fringes, and which stalk through the wreckage of cities and towns, seeking to devour what's left. This world needs heroes now more than ever... and they are rising from the ashes. Unions of ancient powers with mortal flames burn bright, but will they be able to kindle something to push back the darkness? Or will they just be the last gasp before the fire goes out forever?

If that little piece strikes you, and makes you wonder what the hell it is I'm talking about, then you need to check out The Realm of Gaian Enoch!

Seriously... if that intrigues you, check it out for yourself!

A Game of Dark Fantasy in a Broken World


For those who are getting a bit of a Dark Souls vibe from the introductory part of this week's entry, I feel that's not far off in the kind of feeling you should bring to the game. It's not mechanically similar, mind you, but that was the vibe I've gotten the longer I've looked through the game, the art, and the kinds of arcs players will be expected to go through.

And if you haven't grabbed the game for yourself yet, I'd recommend stopping by the Arrowland Games YouTube channel to check out what Tony Rowland, the game's creator, has to say about this RPG!


Though I haven't run the game for my own table yet, I have been keeping a close eye on what its creator is doing, and I wanted to take this week's Monday post to make some more folks aware of this game. Because I have a soft spot for dark and fantastical things, and too many games that go grim are either something that comes around to being tongue-in-cheek like Mork Borg, or it goes for the rules-light approach (and often both). The Realm of Gaian Enoch, though, is something that is definitely giving us all a unique opportunity... if we're willing to step through the doors to take it!

If this game peaks your interest, make sure you go to the Arrowland Games YouTube channel in order to watch the creator's videos (and subscribe to the channel while you're at it), and check out all the releases that have come out for the game thus far:


Being an indie creators is a tough gig, so consider checking out this game and setting to see if we can boost their signal, and get the juice going for future releases!
