A three-week fantasy roleplaying adventure.

The old stories say that treasure lies beneath the earth—but so do monsters, forgotten kingdoms, and secrets best left undisturbed.

Join us this August for a three-week fantasy adventure using Shadowdark RPG, a fast-paced tabletop roleplaying game inspired by the earliest fantasy adventures. With straightforward rules and an emphasis on exploration, it's perfect for both newcomers and experienced players looking for something a little different.

Together, players will create a party of adventurers and set out into a dangerous world where every expedition is a journey into the unknown. Light is precious, supplies are limited, and success depends on working together, thinking creatively, and making difficult decisions under pressure.

Each session builds on the last, allowing players to develop their characters, uncover ancient mysteries, and face increasingly dangerous challenges as a team. Every player has a chance to contribute, whether through clever ideas, careful planning, bold heroics, or unexpected moments of inspiration.

Shadowdark encourages conversation, cooperation, and shared problem-solving around the table. There's no need to perform or act—just bring your imagination, listen to your fellow adventurers, and see where the story leads. The best plans often come from combining everyone's different ideas and strengths.

No previous roleplaying experience is needed. We'll provide everything required, including characters, dice, and all the rules. Our experienced Game Master will guide the group through the adventure, making it easy to jump in from the very first session.

Over three weeks you'll:

  • Explore mysterious dungeons and forgotten ruins.
  • Solve puzzles and overcome dangerous obstacles.
  • Work together to survive against fearsome monsters.
  • Discover treasure, ancient lore, and unexpected twists.
  • Build an unforgettable story with a new group of adventurers.

Whether you've never rolled a die before or you're a seasoned dungeon delver, this is a chance to share an adventure where courage, curiosity, and teamwork matter more than having the biggest sword.

Spaces are limited to ensure everyone has the opportunity to take part, so advance booking for the whole series is recommended.

Gather your party. Light your torch. Step into the Shadowdark.
