5 STARS – "A Masterclass in Narrative RPG Design QuestWorlds is, hands down, one of the most flexible and accessible narrative RPG systems available today. ...The QuestWorlds Core Book is more than just a great RPG—it’s a toolbox for storytelling, a platform for creativity, and a refined evolution of one of the best narrative RPG systems ever made. Whether you’re a GM looking for a new system, a designer crafting your own world, or a group of players who want a game that truly adapts to your style, QuestWorlds delivers." — Horacio, customer review.

5 STARS – "A delightful, inspiring, multi-functional book, QuestWorlds ventures where other setting agnostic ('generic') RPGs fail to tread – and in doing so succeeds magnificently." — Cris, customer review.

5 STARS – "I've been in love with the concept of these rules for years, and I believe this is exactly the version I've been looking forward to all this time." — Alfredo, customer review.

5 STARS – "It's filled not just with detailed examples, that make clear how the system is used in practice, but also with tons of really valuable advice on running and playing storytelling games. The GM advice section is a masterclass, and worth reading well beyond its value just for QuestWorlds." — Brian Duguid, customer review.

5 STARS – "This basic rule set has had many editions, but never before has one been so successful in teaching you how to play... Every effort is made to explain how to use the rules in clear language. Every concept in the game has multiple examples drawn from one of four example campaigns set in multiple genres... In conclusion, this is the best available text to learn how to play one of the most versatile rulesets ever designed to play story driven RPGs. Highly recommended." — Cassidy, customer review.

5 STARS –"A true pleasure to read, thanks to Ian Cooper’s excellent writing, the numerous examples, and the elegant, clear, and functional layout." — Gregory, customer review.

STYLE 5 - SUBSTANCE 5 – "QuestWorlds is, hands down, one of the most flexible and accessible narrative RPG systems available today. This edition refines and clarifies the mechanics, making it easier than ever to adapt to any setting, genre, or playstyle. Whether you enjoy freeform storytelling, structured tactical play, or something in between, QuestWorlds gives you the tools to make it work seamlessly. Absolutely recommend." — RPGNET review.
