In a RiverBank game, you join an intelligent society of anthropomorphic Animals and enter their life of cake and teatime by the slow part of the river. Here, the charm of cottagecore meets the whimsy of sophisticated critters as they navigate the intricacies—and often the bedlam—of polite Animal society.

Riverbank is a game about roleplaying, where your character choices directly impact the narrative. Weave farcical or dramatic tales of elegant characters on curious quests as you celebrate friendships, navigate social niceties, and weather the unique dynamics of Animal life. Attend tea parties, stroll through gardens, dance at fancy balls, and win the prize at the village fair—all while trying to dodge difficult relatives and keep a stiff upper lip.

Kobold Press is putting down its shields and picking up some spats with the RiverBank RPG. This brand-new system is optimized for 3 to 5 players, using standard dice (d4, d6, d12) to resolve player decisions while balancing the characters' Animality and Poetry sides. Fall too far into one side or the other, and total disaster may follow!

Grab your friends and get ready to dance a waltz of whimsy, hilarity, and a hint of drama in the cozy RiverBank RPG!
