Hard-hitting action and adventure in a post-Ragnarok Norse fantasy world.
Designed by Colin Le Sueur and inspired by Dark Souls and Elden Ring, Runecairn is a lightweight combat-focused TTRPG built for two players, one Warden (GM) and one Adventurer.
This book contains everything you need to run the game, from a brutal one-shot, tense dungeon delve, or epic campaign, including:
- Dynamic reactions to speed up combat: block, parry, backstab!
- A tutorial dungeon adventure, perfect for teaching new players.
- 6 powerful backgrounds from Warrior to Skald to Pyre; change your playstyle with a new weapon.
- Drop-in additional players for jolly cooperation or player-vs-player invasions.
- Options for solo play with a rune-based oracle, freeing you from the curse of scheduling.
- A delve generator to create random Viking adventures, getting you into the action immediately.
Download includes fillable character sheets and a delve generator tracker.

Remastered is an updated and refreshed version of the original Runecairn: Wardensaga, published in 2022. What's different in Wardensaga Remastered?
Sleek new layout, making it clearer to read and play. Tightened up and clarified mechanics, to better convey to new players and GMs. Brought in new mechanics introduced in the Runecairn Bestiary like toxic and dismembered status effects. Provided answers to common questions like "how do I increase mead flask sips?", "what do rare items mean?", and "where should I place bonfires when playing solo?". Brilliant new colour and texture for the illustrations, alongside all new illustrations like the dwarf and lindworm. Typo and corrections pass to squash those bugs once and for all.
