We love Role Playing Games (RPGs) but there are a lot of aspects that keep others from joining in the fun. Inevitably we all have friends that are new to gaming or a couple of regulars that couldn't make it to our normally scheduled classic tabletop RPG. Nights of Yore is a great way to introduce new players or to take a break from your regular game. We hope you'll like Nights of Yore enough that
it will become your regular game! The Gist
Nights of Yore is designed and inspired by the idea of streamlining the game to the point that anyone from first time players to veteran gamers can jump in easily. Stuff & Things
You won't need
expensive books
character sheets
dice
pencils
calculators
miniatures
dungeon mats. You will need
Laptop or Desktop for the Storyteller to run the game
TV, Second Monitor, or Projector for the Tabletop
Smartphones or Tablets for the Players
Fun for Everyone
The rules are simple and easily explained or just jump right in and learn as you go. And anyone can be the Storyteller after running through our Storyteller tutorial. New Adventures Every Time
Games are intended to be one off adventures to be played in a single sitting. This gives Players the opportunity to try out many different character races, classes, and alignments. Up to 640 combinations! So no worries if a friend or two can't make it every time you get together. And it's easy to add a friend just swinging through for the night. Everyone should have the opportunity to join in the fun. There's room for the Storyteller and up to 6 Players! Create a New Campaign in Minutes
Campaigns are randomly generated for every adventure. The Storyteller creates a game code the Players will need to join then completes a brief questionnaire. This will determine how long the game is, quantity and length of areas and dungeons, and difficulty. The Storyteller looks over the timeline of areas and dungeons and forms a storyline to guide the Players through.*
It takes the weeks of game building down to a few minutes!
*storyline creativity not included ;)
New Dungeons Every Time
Totally hate one of the dungeons generated for your campaign? With the Dungeon Generator you can create new dungeons instantly and save the one that suits your game. Dungeonables
Treasures, traps, items, NPCs (Non-Playable Characters), and even Battles will be yours to command with our Dragon-Drop interface. Add surprises along the path, in battle, through private messages, or gifted from NPCs at any time. New Characters Every Time
While the Storyteller generates the campaign the players can generate their characters. Players open their Nights of Yore: Player App, enter the game code the Storyteller created, then press the "Generate Character" button. The Player App will generate your unique character based on:
8 Classes
8 Races
5 Alignments
Female or Male
Name your character and your ready to adventure! Spend the next few minutes familiarizing yourself with your stats, abilities, attacks, and equipment. Share with your comrades and get to know their characters as well. Your Storyteller will be ready to start before you know it! Show Me Your Sheets
Character Sheets are accessible for the Storyteller and Players at any time. These Skills Are Made for Checking
The Storyteller and Players can easily make skill checks secretly or publicly. New Battles Every Time
There are a host of Enemies, Monsters, Mini-Bosses, Bosses, and NPCs for the Storyteller to use along the way. The Battle Builder lets you design and layout battles ahead of time. With our Monster Dugout you can have additional Monsters or NPCs on deck for quick and easy mid-battle surprises or story line events. Simply Dragon-Drop a Monster or NPC from the Monster Dugout on to the field and watch your players freak out! Feeling lazy? The Random Encounter Generator gives you the option to start random encounters with controlled difficulty at the push of a button from anywhere in the game. LOL
Messenger enables the Storyteller to send messages, items, and images to all or some of the players. Players can trade items to balance inventory or send messages to work out secret strategies without sharing with the Storyteller. yoreTunes
Jukebox allows the Storyteller and each player to control the audio from their devices. Adjust individual volumes of our High-Fidelity Music, Ambiance, and Sound Effects. Have music and ambiance come from the TV, stereo, or surround sound system and sound effects can come from each player's devices. Hear and feel your sword slashes from your device while immersed in the music and ambiance of the world. A fully interactive experience. Nights of Yore is the easiest way for you and your friends to have all of the thrills of a Tabletop Role Playing Game without any of the hassles! Share in the tales of Nights of Yore!
