Delve endless dungeons, roam boundless realms.
Our TTRPG modules, games, and accessories offer fun and exciting tabletop gaming experiences designed to create lasting memories of good games, shared with good friends.
To make that happen, we write books focused on the player experience, ensuring every item, area, and NPC can be interacted with in a number of interesting ways.
But since any game is only as as good as its GM, we take care to structure all of the text, maps, and other elements in ways that make the game easy to customise, prep, and run at the table.
In short, our products are created to lighten a GM's workload while maximising the potential for emergent gameplay, player agency, and fun for everyone at the table.
Since our very first release in 2023, Bolwerk Publishing's books have been downloaded over 16,000 times.
Let's keep it going.
Our products
Our flagship line, Dungeon Domains, is what started it all, offering an endless expanse of twisting tunnels for your characters to explore. The Renegade Realms series of books takes this tried-and-true concept above ground, providing a boundless overland map filled with adventure sites to discover. Wotan Protocol is the odd one out; still a work in progress, Wotan Protocol is a standalone tactical TTRPG of epic firefights, set in the Nineties-That-Never-Were.
Dungeon Domains
Dungeon Domains are hand-drawn geomorphs representing sections of dungeons, caverns, sewers, or catacombs, fleshed out with flavourful and detailed descriptions of each area as well as a unique legend explaining the dungeon’s history, all to provide GMs with inspiration to create their own dungeon-delving adventures using any system or setting of their choice.
Renegade Realms
Renegade Realms are hand-drawn hex map tiles illustrating wild and lawless fantasy realms, rich with the promise of gold and glory, danger and death! Each map tile represents an area approximately 600 square miles (1600 sq. km) in size and contains no fewer than six adventure sites fleshed out with area details and NPCs to provide GMs with the inspiration and flexibility to easily build their own unique adventuring realm and facilitate hexcrawl adventures in any system or setting.
Wotan Protocol
Wotan Protocol is a tabletop roleplaying game inspired by the golden era of video games that gave us gems like Doom, Quake, and XCOM: Enemy Unknown. Set in the 'Nineties-That-Never-Were', the game borrows elements from early tabletop skirmish games and old-school megadungeons to support fun, flexible, and fresh games for you and your friends every time you play. Players in Wotan Protocol take on the roles of Operators tasked with exploring the ancient ruins of the alien Citadel and confronting the nameless horrors lurking within.
