Crowdfunding Campaign Announced for ‘Blasphemous’ Tabletop RPG
Developer The Game Kitchen are teaming up with tabletop RPG publisher ShadowLands Games to bring the 2D soulslike Blasphemous series into the world of tabletop RPGs. Launching on Gamefound Q1 2026, Blasphemous: The Role-playing Game will see players venture into the world of Cvstodia to create their own stories.
Drawing inspiration from Blasphemous, this new TTRPG “offers an invitation to embark on a journey of discovery, where the only boundaries are defined by the limits of one’s own imagination.” Players will create their own character and face the dangers and twisted subterfuges in their quest for redemption.
Much like the 2019 original for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC, in the tabletop RPG of Blasphemous, your characters will be emaciated devotees of the religion of Cvstodia, in a world twisted and sanctified at once by a high will known as the Miracle. Each player will embody a Penitent who will traverse the land marked by suffering, drawing inspiration from the myths and art of Spanish folklore, and the culture of Andalusia.
Details on the gameplay mechanics for Blasphemous: The Role-playing Game, as well as plenty of lore, can be found in the Quickstart Guide, which you can download for free.
Bruce Campbell is back this year with his brand new movie Ernie & Emma touring the country, and the horror legend has also written a brand new novella that’s now available to read.
Available now as an eBook and paperback, New York Times Bestselling Author Bruce Campbell’s Reconcile sees Campbell putting his own spin on the classic Western genre.
Campbell explains, “My mother, Joanne, loved the Western genre. She read every Zane Grey novel he ever wrote. I know because I drew stick-figure cartoons in the margins of her massive paperback collection. Westerns, by nature, are riddled with clichés – the steely-eyed, unshaven hero protecting innocent pioneers from brutal, unforgiving savages. With Reconcile, I tried to sidestep many of the cliché elements we’ve read or seen in Westerns for a generation.”
“Reality isn’t tidy or reliable,” Campbell continues. “Reality has unpleasant circumstances that don’t always resolve themselves like they do in the movies. In the heat of battle, the “good guys” and “bad guys” aren’t so easily defined. In the sprawling history of the American West, I’d like to think a different kind of story was possible, and I hope you enjoy it.”
You can purchase your copy of the 116-page, self-published novella now.
