Four classes. Infinite archetypes. Real danger.

Olde Swords Reign is my fantasy RPG built on classic foundations. It takes the best bits of old-school gaming - deadly combat, player skill over character builds, exploration-driven play - and wraps them in a streamlined system that’s easy to run and teach.

What Makes It Different

• Classless feel, class structure - Four base classes (Fighter, Expert, Cleric, Magic-User) but feats let you build any archetype
• Dangerous combat - Low hit points, meaningful choices, real consequences
• Simple rules - Runs on d20 + modifiers, fits in your head after one session
• OSR compatible - Works with classic modules and adventures

Current Status

The full rules are being revised. I’m taking the time to get it right rather than rush something half-baked.

Expect the project to go live before Christmas 2025.

Play It

The game is free and always will be. When the revised edition is ready, it’ll be available as a PDF and on the web.

If you run a game, I’d love to hear about it - drop into the Discord and share your stories.
