About the game
Embark on the ultimate solo adventure with A Rogue’s Tale, a sprawling campaign expansion that unites the entire Rogue Dungeon experience into a single, cohesive mega-game—greater than the sum of its parts. At its heart lies a massive 17"x11" world map, where you’ll travel seamlessly between cities bustling with intrigue, sleepy villages, treacherous wilderness, ancient tombs, flooded sewers, and imposing castles. Dive into these diverse locations, conquering their challenges and unearthing secrets, then return to the world map to continue your journey without missing a beat. With a streamlined wilderness hex-crawl system, you'll encounter unique events across six terrain types and uncover quests that develop your hero and story. Whether you’re delving deep into dungeons, slinking through castles, or exploring sewers and forgotten tombs, every element connects to create a living, breathing world of adventure. Featuring 350+ cards for events, quests, loot, skills, and dungeons, A Rogue’s Tale brings tabletop RPG depth without the need for a DM—an epic, unified experience of exploration, combat, and story. —description from the publisher

The listed playing time for Rogue Dungeon: A Rogue's Tale is 60–120 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game.

Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Rogue Dungeon: A Rogue's Tale for ages 12 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone.
