This is the page where we post about upcoming convention games, as well as online assets you can use to run Dreamland yourself. We also have contact information for the site.
UPCOMING CON GAMES & PUBLIC DEMOS
March 29, 2023 – At the moment, there are no scheduled public playtests; we hope to run games this year at KublaCon, GenCon and BigBadCon, but no dates are set yet. Check here for future updates!
In the past we have run Dreamland demos at conventions like GenCon Online, NecronomiCon, BigBadCon, Convocation, A Weekend With Good Friends and YSDC Game Day.
If you’re interested in playtesting Dreamland with your own local gaming group, or trying a game on Roll20, feel free to email us at (Jason’s first name) at mockman point com, or ping us on twitter or Facebook.

VTT (VIRTUAL TABLETOP) SUPPORT
Dreamland is a card-based game where players use 300 Word Cards to tell stories and describe marvels of Dreamland. As of March 2023, you can use any of the following ways to play Dreamland:
Tabletop Simulator: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2925695901 – Tabletop Simulator costs a flat fee of $20 to buy on Steam; the Dreamland material is free. Go here to subscribe to Dreamland and you’ll be able to download the cards as well as receiving updates whenever I make edits.
playingcards dot io: https://www.dropbox.com/s/974ahp7upefpkgx/dreamland-rpg-playingcards.pcio?dl=0 Though not a full VTT, this free site works great for simulating Dreamland Word Cards. To use it, click on the file link above and download the “.pcio” file. Then create an account at playingcards.io and upload the file; the Dreamland card set will appear.
We hope to make print-and-play available in the future. Dreamland cards are also set up for roll20, but since roll20 assets can’t be shared except as products in the roll20 store, we haven’t made these available yet (since Dreamland isn’t ready for commercial release yet, we don’t want to charge money for it). Occasionally Jason, Aaron or someone else who has uploaded Dreamland cards to roll20 will run a game on roll20.
