Video: BRW Games Big Announcement

BRW Games, the publisher behind Adventures Dark & Deep, is publishing ADDventure Engine, a system-neutral first-edition generic ruleset.

This is a core game, a game creation toolkit, based around a stripped-down first-edition license. This is scheduled for 2026 and is an interesting development in open development and game engines. I like this, the hobby needs these sorts of toolkits and base systems under open licenses. For those who are fans of first editions, this is a good thing. Along with OSRIC 3 being released under a Creative Commons license, we are entering a new era of first-edition gaming that looks to be a fun one.

Of course, the Worlds Without Number system has been released into the public domain, and that is a fantastic game engine as well. That isn't a first-edition engine, but it is very close.

A great announcement, and this is on my radar!
