This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Creators of Spycraft, Fantasy Craft, and the forthcoming Mistborn RPG to publish roleplaying adaptation of author Frank Beddor's Looking Glass Wars novel trilogy.


August 4, 2009 — OMAHA, NE: Crafty Games LLC has partnered with Frank Beddor, whose spirited reinvention of Wonderland challenges everything you know, or think you know, about the cherished fairytale classic.

"We're so excited to join Frank in his quest to reveal Wonderland's true history and can't wait to show off all the amazing things we've found beyond the Crystal Continuum," said Crafty Games partner Patrick Kapera. "Every day we're discovering new things in this lush world. It's a great honor and a tremendous privilege to be part of this journey."

"An RPG is the perfect vehicle to unleash the power of Imagination and explore the curious and sometimes dark corners of Wonderland," said Frank Beddor. "The team at Crafty Games are terrific collaborators, and the ideal candidates to expand and broaden the Looking Glass Wars."

The RPG will be powered by a versatile, new storytelling game engine designed for lightning-fast narrative play — the same system that will feature in the forthcoming Mistborn game.

About Frank Beddor
Literary sleuth and world creator Frank Beddor dared to expose Wonderland's true story in his novels The Looking Glass Wars, Seeing Redd, and ArchEnemy. Fascinated by ancient, illuminated cards first sighted at the British Museum, he spent ten years collecting and interpreting a series of scattered and elusive Wonderland decks, translating his findings in the best-selling trilogy. His search continues, with new revelations made in the geo-graphic novels Hatter M: The Looking Glass Wars and Hatter M: Mad with Wonder, as well as an online MMO, card game, and iPhone app. For more information, visit http://www.lookingglasswars.com
