Melee & Wizard

The Fantasy Trip Returns to print!
It's back! A fan favorite and a game I have many fond memories of has returned to print. Steve Jackson Games acquired the rights to The Fantasy Trip last year. Designed by Mr. Jackson when he was with Metagaming Concepts and first published in a Microgame format consisting of a small booklet, map and cut-a-part counters, Melee and Wizard could be played as tactical games in their own right or used as the combat and magic system of a role-playing system. We did both, adapting them for use in our White Box and Advanced gaming.
The Fantasy Trip became its own FRPG with publication of In The Labyrinth, a softcover manual for fantasy role-play using Melee, Wizard and their Advanced descendants. Steve Jackson Games is now shipping the current, updated versions of his beloved The Fantasy Trip games following a very successful Kickstarter. They can be found online or in a store near you (if you are lucky enough to have one). Let The Fantasy Trip gaming begin!
