Roleplaying Session (1 of 2): The Orchard of Glass Wolves

Read this carefully before signing up!

Dungeon World is a narrative high fantasy roleplaying game, built on the Powered by the Apocalypse framework. It was first published in 2011 and has since become one of the most popular tabletop RPGs in the world.

Two years ago, the original creators of Dungeon World commissioned a new design team to develop Dungeon World 2, bringing the game up-to-date and taking into account 15 years of evolution, creativity and play in the PbtA community since the early days of the game. This new ruleset is not yet ready for public testing, but a series of closed alphas took place in 2025.

On 2 February 2026, a 'final alpha' ruleset was distributed to a small community for a round of playtesting during the spring. This game is part of that playtesting round.

About this game
Using the final alpha ruleset, we will design a set of characters and then jump into a short adventure entitled The Orchard of Glass Wolves.

You don't have to know anything about Dungeon World or have any specific roleplaying experience to join the game. The ruleset is designed to be beginner-friendly.

Also, it's worth saying that I (as GM) have been working with Dungeon World for many years, but the new alpha ruleset contains a lot of new stuff for me too, so we will be discovering it together!

The outcome of our game, and our feedback on the experimental ruleset, will be shared directly with the designers.

This adventure will take two evenings to complete. If you want to take part, you need to be available on both the following dates:

• Sunday 15 February, 19:00 at Outpost Brussels
• Tuesday 17 February, 19:00 at Outpost Brussels (sign up)

Please do not sign up for just one session. You must sign up for both -- or neither!

If you do sign up, please do so in a spirit of experimentation, patience and good humour, and let's see where the game takes us...
