About the Game World

The World of Tale is an open canvas to players and gamemasters. It has a loosely defined geography, a set of main deities, rules for cosmology and a short history. It is a medieval fantasy world where you are free to create your own climates, cultures and religions, using in game forms and guides to create a world.

The Quest Pack sold separately focuses on a small area in the middle of the map, mostly in the Varaes Forest Region, the Rancari Mountain Range and Roya's Marsh. With the ruleset, you can create your own content, quests and errands in Tale.


About the Game Mechanics

The Game Mechanics are inspired by PbtA games. The Gamemaster does not roll dice and has a set number of actions to perform to help the advancement of the story. The players take actions, and when the outcome is uncertain there are three possibilities: Skills, Qualities and Actions. Skills are unique to each character, Actions are basic - like Attack or Perception, Qualities are tests of a character's strength or focus.

The Game mechanics are designed to take as little as possible time away from actual play.

A friend of mine just bought this. Already interested, I browsed it on his laptop. No bookmarks. That is usually a deal breaker for me. It's not good customer service to neglect bookmarks.

I searched for EPUB rulebooks, and the search engine showed me this game. Where can I find the epub version?

Can Tale be played with 1 GM and 1 PC? And if it can be, would it be fun or would we miss out on many features of the game? The rulebook sample says the game works best with 1 GM and 3-6 players.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.
