“My previous experience in World Building has been a mostly individual process, something I’ve made for others to play in. Arium on the other hand is a completely cooperative experience and I’ve honestly never had as much fun world building as I have using this system. My face hurt the next day from pure good times!”

“We received our print copies of the Arium books […] These are, in a word, amazing. I’ve never seen zine format prints with such high quality. Thick paper and covers, hefty, well-cut, and sharp printing with durable inks.”

“For collaborative world-building and crafting of a setting, Arium provides a truly open and group-driven approach that allows for almost anything to be brought into existence. A superb way to ensure that everyone has a say, everyone is heard, and everyone feels like the game belongs to the group as a whole. It’s also incredibly versatile and can be used to enhance and customize the setting of just about any existing system.”

“Arium provides a toolset for collaborative world-building and open-ended character creation that is unparalleled among tabletop roleplaying games. With Arium, a group of friends around a table (or online) can begin with absolutely nothing but a few vague notions of what might be fun to play, and within a few hours have a fully-realized world to explore populated by a full cast of characters with which to explore it. Long before they roll the first the die, the players will be fully bought-in to the world because they had a hand in every aspect of its creation. This is cooperative storytelling at its finest.”
