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

KublaCon (Burlingame, CA) – May 24-27, 2023 – I’ll be running two in-person games at this great convention at the SFO Marriott Regency. Sign up at the links below!

The Goodness of Hlanith – Saturday, May 25, 1PM PST – Hlanith, great city of the Jungle of Kled, was known far and wide as the kindest place in Dreamland. Love, compassion and forgiveness reigned in its streets as long as anyone could remember. Until… something happened, and you, the Dreamers, were sent on a quest to save Hlanith from a terrible transformation.

Idle Days on the Yann – Sunday, May 26, 12PM PST – Tired of life? Want to move? Want to see the world? A new life awaits in the Yann River Valley, far from the gloom of the bleak city where you have dwelled most of your dream-life. You’ll just have to travel the perilous jungles of the Jasper Lands, the mysterious Zar Coast, and the dangers of the Irusian Mountains to find this land of perfect beauty… but can you make it, and what awaits you there?

In the past we have run Dreamland demos at conventions like GenCon, BigBadCon, GameholeCon, NecronomiCon, Convocation, KublaCon, GoPlayNW and YSDC Game Day. Check here for future updates!

We do Dreamland playtests 2-3 times a month on Thursdays on the Dreamland Discord server, usually starting at 8PM PST. Email us at (Jason’s first name) at mockman point com, or ping us on twitter or Facebook, for a Discord invite!

DREAMLAND QUICKSTART RULES

As of October 2023, the updated Beta version of the rules are available online in a QuickStart PDF for you to download & try:

There is also one complete online starter adventure, “The Paradise of the Unchanging” (which also contains a short bestiary and other odds & ends):

Printable Dreamland Character Sheet (3p.): https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ew68v30zrpggxh229buff/Dreamland-Character-Sheet-10-2023.pdf?rlkey=pmyl35zuhaqnkhkasfjywo2l5&dl=0

This character sheet is higher-resolution than the one in the Quickstart PDF.

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.

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.

Here’s a recording of our first Dreamland actual play video, recorded in April 2023 using OBS on Zoom and roll20:

POD (PRINT ON DEMAND) CARDS

For those who prefer to play RPGs in-person, you’ll have to wait till Dreamland is released in an official print edition with books, maps and physical Word Cards. However, as an interim measure, a POD version of the 300 Word Cards is now available at The Game Crafter. These are more expensive than the cards would be as part of an official release, and these are not the final designs, but they’re high-quality and suitable to playtest the game using the Quickstart Rules. If you can’t wait to play Dreamland in-person, please check them out! (And please look forward to an eventual professional release of the game!)

CONTACT INFORMATION

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.

There is also a Dreamland Discord server which is accessible by invitation. Email and we’ll send you a link, there’s lots of Dreamland folks there!

Or, if you want to get on our mailing list for updates, send us your info with the form below! (But emailing us personally is much faster — we don’t send many group emails.)
