Tasaka Games: A tabletop role-playing game company

Tasaka Games is a modest one-person tabletop gaming company, created out of love for the gaming community. Several sources of inspiration led to the development of this humble gaming company, which includes the Old School Revival/Renaissance RPG movement and the multitude of homebrew RPG systems, podcasts and fan-created resources. The creation of Tasaka Games is my way of sharing my homebrew games and adventures with the gaming community; a community that I am proud to be a part of. PDF versions of the products are available for free on DriveThru RPG, with affordably priced print-on-demand options available.

White Box: Eastern Adventures

White Box: Eastern Adventures is based on the simple and creative game-play mechanics of the 1974 ‘White Box’ iteration of the ‘World’s Most Famous Role-Playing Game’. This ‘rules-light’ OSR system aims at capturing the feel and flavour of the ‘White Box’ set, where ‘rulings, not rules’ defined the game. White Box: Eastern Adventures is set in a world based on Japanese folklore and mythology, featuring classes and monsters with an eastern flair.
