Ever wondered what it's like to walk the shattered plains of Roshar or burn metals like a Mistborn? If you're a fan of Brandon Sanderson's epic Cosmere universe, you're in luck—because there are tabletop games that let you do just that. From deck-builders to full-blown RPGs, here's the rundown on every Cosmere tabletop game you can get your hands on right now, plus a peek at what's on the horizon.
First up is Call to Adventure: The Stormlight Archive. Built on the popular Call to Adventure system from Brotherwise Games, this board game drops you into the world of Roshar. You'll draft cards to shape your character's history, motivation, and destiny, all while balancing their morality. The goal? Create the most epic hero's journey and rack up points. It's a clever mix of engine-building and storytelling, and it's perfect for fans who want to explore the world of the Stormlight Archive without committing to a full RPG.
Speaking of RPGs, the Cosmere RPG is the big one. This tabletop roleplaying game gives you the tools to live out your own adventures in Sanderson's universe. Whether you want to become a Knight Radiant, take on the form of a singer, or just survive as a soldier, the system is built around your character's motivation and the story you and your friends create. Brotherwise is starting with Roshar, but they've already announced that Scadrial—the world of Mistborn—is coming soon. You can grab the Stormlight Handbook, the Stonewalkers Adventure, or a Starter Set if you're new to tabletop RPGs.
If you prefer something quicker, Mistborn: The Deckbuilding Game is a solid choice. Set during The Final Empire, this game puts 1-4 players in the roles of beloved characters like Vin and Kelsier. You'll build your deck from a shared pool of cards while learning to burn metals through allomancy. It's a fast-paced, strategic game that captures the heist vibe of the first Mistborn book.
But that's not all. Brotherwise Games is the official partner for Cosmere board games, and they've got more in the pipeline. With the Cosmere expanding into movies and TV, there's no telling what other tabletop experiences might be on the way. For now, these three games offer a fantastic way to dive deeper into Sanderson's worlds.
So, whether you're a seasoned gamer or just looking for a new way to experience the Cosmere, there's something here for you. Will you be picking up any of these games? Let us know in the comments!
