World of Sanctuary
A downloadable game
Since the very moment of creation, the angelic legions of the Heavens and the demonic hordes of Hell have waged an unending war, clashing across the entwined planes that make up their realm.
An eternity of violent campaigns between realities could never be without consequence. Constant confrontations across the barrier between the Heavens and Hell eventually wrought something new: a third plane between the two, not quite demonic, not quite angelic, and free from the endless conflict. A sanctuary.
World of Sanctuary is a tabletop game written as a loving homage to the action RPG genre popularized by the Diablo series. Set in a universe torn apart by warring angels and demons, you and your friends will take on the role of adventurers looking to find treasure, build their strength, and eventually defeat the Prime evil threatening their world's future.
World of Sanctuary is designed to be run with zero prep, so you can snag a copy and start playing right away. The game assumes a GM and a small group, but was written to be friendly to solo, duo and GM-less players, too!
World of Sanctuary includes:
- Nine classic character classes, such as Paladin and Necromancer, and rules to build your own.
- Lightweight world and dungeon exploration rules. Wander your Sanctuary's regions and get in trouble.
- Loot drops, loot drops, loot drops! Collect equipment in 5 ascending rarities, including 11 bespoke Legendary items based on iconic gear.
- On-the-fly world generation and settlement upgrading. Sketch out your Sanctuary and find new and helpful merchants for your home base.

This looks pretty neat. Any chance of also having a Pages version, instead of spreads? I'd like to print it up and give it a try solo tonight. Would you suggest one character for a solo run, or a party of 4 or so?
I actually never tried throwing one together because I thought it would be a nightmare, but it turns out it wasn't! Should be a singles doc available now.
As far as solo play goes, either of those would be fine, though I tend to lean toward single character myself. If you go that route, I tend to prefer a character that can have at least 1 follower, and you might want to roll for gang size with disadvantage so you're not getting too swarmed at level 1!
Thanks. I'm going to give it a go tonight. Maybe a Necromancer with raven minions.
When I rolled for my two initial random merchants, I got a Mystic, but I don't see that in the book. Also, the Spiderling has Boltproof, but on the ability list, it says Rangeproof. Same thing?
