AmerArcana is a tabletop RPG horror comedy with an underlying message about the value of public service and who the real monsters are. Player characters stumble through a supernatural underworld in this game where John Dies at the End meets The City We Became.

AmerArcana is Powered by the Apocalypse, using the same engine as the influential Apocalypse World and its successors like Monsterhearts, Masks, Monster of the Week, and Kickstarter darling Avatar Legends. Some of the rules text for AmerArcana is taken from the Dungeon World System Reference Document.

AmerArcana features:

-17 Playbooks derived from mystically-empowered public service careers.

-Original supernatural powers like Public Libraries changing reality to match fiction tropes, Public Utilities controlling electricity and sewage, and Public Works changing reality by changing maps.

-13 Corrupted, former human oppressors transformed into horrifying monstrosities, including the In-Cell (an MRA misogynist who turns into a Cronenbergian lump of flesh), the Plutocrat (a billionaire so toxic it literally spews radiation), and the White Light (a racist who burns with the so-called light of purity)–not to mention the Blueblood, the monster cop from the cover image.

-7 Undoers, the Corrupted's extradimensional overlords who do things like eat emotion and dissolve both physical bonds and emotional ones.

-7 National Spirits derived from the annals of American culture.

-NPCs, custom moves, adventure seeds, and everything else you need to run a game of AmerArcana.


Special offer! If $1000 worth of AmerArcana rulebooks are sold, we will commission additional art and provide an upgraded version of the rulebook to every purchaser for no additional fee.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
