What is DungeonWorld?

 

DungeonWorld is a commercial fantasy adventure campaign of EPIC proportions. Thousands of characters interact in a living, breathing, highly-detailed game environment.... and YOU can be a part of it!

The game is a turn-based play-by-mail or play-by email (internet) game. You can choose to receive your turn reports laser-printed by post, or via an e mail account as a PDF file. In between turns you'll be able to take part in exciting and innovative player diplomacy, roleplaying, intrigue and guild-interaction.

If you've never played a play-by-mail/e-mail game before simply contact us and we'll send you a whole bunch of info on how it works! If you have played a PBM/PBEM game before then try DungeonWorld... you'll find it's refreshingly different and innovative!

The normal player position in DungeonWorld is the 'Adventurers Position' where you control a group of heroes exploring the world, killing monster and hunting out treasure and lost artifacts. However, special positions (recommended for advanced players) are available too, including 'Monster' and 'Trader' position.

The main game of Dungeonworld is "The Kingdom of Bereny" (module 5), for which a turn runs every other weekend. However, there are also special modules which explore other areas of the DW game world and have different deadlines. Frontier is based in a savage jungle land where dinosaurs are common and danger is everywhere (7 day turnaround.) Valley of the Lost is set in a mythical valley in which lost travellers becomes trapped and from which there seems to be no escape. (21 day turnaround.) Land of the Dead is the place where slain adventurers may find themselves, and a bizarre and dark place it is! (7 day turnaround.) The Broken Lands is the Dungeonworld free-play single character module. (7 day turnaround.)
