We hope that in the last weeks and days you’ve gotten a chance to hold your new books, flip through, and even play some Land of Eem! The response has been overwhelmingly positive and we can’t thank you all enough for supporting the game and building this community.
While it took much longer than we expected to print and ship the game, we’ve learned so much throughout this process. And we’ve also been hard at work behind the scenes creating more Land of Eem material. We absolutely intend to keep supporting this game with more sandboxes, adventures, and player options moving forward.
With that being said, we’re thrilled to share this with you first—our incredible community of Land of Eem backers, and Rickety Stitch and Dungeoneer Adventures readers…
Land of Eem: Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners Game — a beginner-friendly tabletop RPG designed just for kids (and grown-ups)!
The Underlands Sandbox Campaign Setting — a brand new subterranean expansion to the ever-growing Land of Eem universe!
Based on our middle-grade book series from Simon & Schuster, Dungeoneer Adventures is an easy-to-learn, easy-to-run, story-first RPG for ages 8 and up. Players step into the boots of young adventurers at Dungeoneer Academy—earning badges, facing quests, and dealing with more than a few monsters along the way.
We’ve heard from so many of you—parents, teachers, and longtime fans—who’ve wanted a way to introduce younger adventurers to the world of Eem. Whether you came to the table through the Rickety Stitch graphic novels, the Land of Eem TTRPG, or the Dungeoneer Adventures book series, this project is our love letter to all of it—and to you.
