Raiders in the Dark
Raiders in the Dark is a tabletop role-playing game (RPG) about seven adventurers who explore dangerous magical places known as "delve" to find treasure, fight off enemies or supernatural creatures guarding it. The GM can plan their barrow without needing detailed mapping and use movement rolls between dives for an abstract experience of navigating through unknown regions while avoiding traps during a dive. After completing the delve narration phase (without requiring map details), characters have downtime opportunities such as resting up to manage trouble, researching new options or seeking divine assistance from gods in exchange for committing additional abilities before returning to advancing their character's skills and unlocking more potential features like weapons upgrades with rare materials found on dives that can only be discovered through research. The game book includes color art of playshape elements along with PDF hyperlinks providing easy access, while digital versions are available at the link provided.
