About the game

What is Fall of Magic?

From the publisher: "Magic is dying, and the Magus is dying with it. We travel together to the realm of Umbra where magic was born." Fall of Magic is a game of collaborative storytelling where we play a group of travelers in the company of the Magus. The game follows a literary tradition of the fantasy journey where the character’s relationships, transformations, and experiences take center stage. The game features an elegant rule set and stunning presentation including a canvas scroll which unrolls as we travel, revealing perilous roads, strange hosts, and fantastic locales. The scroll is over 5’ (1.5m) in length and is masterfully illustrated by award-winning artist Doug Keith.
