Tales of the Burned Stones is a free and solo-friendly dark-fantasy role-playing game of journeying and dungeon delving. In this game inspired by Diablo, The Witcher, and The Warded Man, players assume the roles of raiders and treasure hunters who are brave and foolish enough to delve into the derelict kingdom, located next to the demonic-controlled lands of Mount Baram, in search of stories, mementos, wealth, and lost artifacts.

Stoneburner
This Breathless game acts as a prequel to Stoneburner, a sci-fantasy TTRPG of demon-hunting and community building in a dwarven asteroid mine. It uses the same fan-favorite, rules-light systems to allow for fast-paced journeying through perilous lands.
This project was designed for all the wonderful people who have helped, boosted, and backed Stoneburner during its Kickstarter campaign. This game is a gift from us to you and to the rest of the TTRPG community.
Now go explore, loot, and most importantly, survive.
