RuneQuest is certainly no new title! Originally released in 1978, this title has been encouraging roleplayers to immerse themselves in a fantasy adventure from Chaosium Inc, as a long-standing alternative RPG to D&D.

"In RuneQuest, everyone uses spells and anyone can be a warrior. The gods provide powers to their mortal worshipers, and can intercede on their behalf. Each RuneQuest adventurer is unique, defined by their Runes, culture, and cult—all chosen by the player."

The new starter set is available to be purchased, and do not worry if you are a long-standing player of RuneQuest and there are concerns about a new rules overhaul. One of Chaosium's prime goals was to preset the system as close to the original ruleset and game as possible. Which makes all previous purchases into RuneQuest compatible.

What the Starter Set does bring to the table, is a way in for new players hoping to join in on the adventure. As RuneQuest has a long-standing and loyal community to the game system, Chaosium wanted to make a product that was accessible for players who were keen on dipping into the universe. Providing everything a player will need to get started in Glorantha - with a wealth of content already available.
