Of Hearth & the Harrowing is an indie grimdark fantasy survival horror tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) created by Jared Twing and published by InCharacter Games. Powered by Chaosium’s Basic Roleplaying (BRP) universal engine, it blends OSR sensibilities with base-building mechanics.

Adventure in the blighted realm of Eragion, a world of muskets, magic, and creeping dread. Years ago, a devastating cataclysm called "The Harrowing" swept the land, leaving behind "The Corruption"—a magical blight that mutates plants, animals, and terrain into twisted monsters. Players step into the roles of rugged heroes (such as witch hunters, duelists, arcanists, and chirurgeons) who fight back against the darkness.

Miles W. ★★★★★

The survival mechanics are brutally clever—managing your hearth's warmth while fending off horrors makes every session tense. I've already run two scenarios and the Basic Role system handles combat smoothly. Perfect for players who want dark fantasy without the usual heroic tropes.

Aurora ★★★★★

I was blown away by how well the Chaosium Basic Role-Playing system works with the grimdark survival horror theme—the rules feel tight and purposeful. The character creation section alone has me already planning my next doomed party.

Sofia ★★★★☆

The survival mechanics are brutal enough to make every session feel tense, which is exactly what I wanted for a grimdark setting. I wish the book included a few more pre-written scenarios for busy game masters, but the core system is solid.
