Dark Crystal Tabletop RPG Announced | Game Rant

The battle for the world of Thra will continue in the latest news concerning Jim Henson’s The Dark Crystal, as the series is set to be getting its own tabletop RPG. Developed by game design company River Horse, the tabletop game will be based in mythology from the original 1982 movie The Dark Crystal and the recent Netflix exclusive The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and will be released in 2021.

The Dark Crystal movie is considered a cult classic and featured some of most elaborate puppeteering and animatronics work in film at the time. A sequel was harried by budgetary issues and production setbacks and never materialized. Fans of the movie were ecstatic when the prequel series, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, was released by Netflix in 2019, but unfortunately the series was canceled after a 10 episode first season. But now the next great iteration of Thra’s mythology could be in the new tabletop RPG.

The tabletop RPG will be a single volume book that contains a 100 scene, 200 page adventure and a GM toolkit so that players can create their own stories and encounters in the world of Thra. The book will also feature some fold-out pages, transparency overlays, and a fully illustrated map of Thra. The game is meant to be a lighter tabletop RPG compared to heavyweight Dungeons and Dragons in order to appeal to fans who love the source material but may not be familiar with the tabletop format.

After the the crushing news of The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance‘s cancellation, many fans were worried for the future of the franchise. The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactics was released in 2020 but failed to capture the magic of Thra with bland visuals and rote gameplay. But a new tabletop RPG promises a new story and endless homebrew possibilities, so fans should keep their eyes out for more news on its release.
