Create your own 'Odyssey' with Aegean tabletop RPG

Created by Stoo Goff, Aegean is a roleplaying game of mythic heroes building a free city - the polis-  and defending it from capricious gods, rival factions, and terrifying monsters. 

Inspired by books like The Odyssey and the Illiad, as well as films like Clash of the Titans, Aegean allows players to manage and govern their own city-state through an elegant downtime and governance system while balancing the fame and pride that comes with being a larger-than-life hero. 

The game uses a d10 dice pool system where epic successes can come with devastating narrative costs. Throughout their adventures players accumulate Risk points, whether from being harmed or voluntarily invoking the Fates to improve their chance of success. However, with Risk comes Hubris, potentially causing the hero to face the wrath of the gods themselves. 

Aside from the core book, we evolve has released several supplements for Aegean:

• Aegean Adventures: Embark on five standalone adventures, voyaging across the sea, investigating a mysterious cult, and coming between feuding gods. 

• Book of Heroes: Descend into the Underworld with new setting and adventure inspiration in the realms of the dead.

• Book of Empires: Explore the shores of the Aegean Sea with new setting and adventure information. How might larger scale events affect your polis?

• The Isle of Pelops: Voyage to the Peleponnesos, the home of ancient Sparta and birthplace of Perseus.

• Terror at Aspis: An action-packed adventure featuring investigation, combat, and a curse from the gods!

Designer Stoo Goff said: “The Odyssey has captivated people for thousands of years because it balances massive, god-level stakes with deeply personal struggles of home and survival. That is exactly the energy we brought to Aegean. When the credits roll on Nolan’s epic, Aegean is here to let you live your own odyssey." 

The next supplement for Aegean will be heading to Kickstarter in the first quarter of 2027, focusing on the Isthmus and central belt of Greece, including Corinth, Athens, and the Oracle at Delphi.

Aegean, its quick start rules, and its expansions are available right now in print and digital formats from the we evolve website.
