Tabletop games label Free League Publishing launched pre-orders for Invincible – Superhero Roleplaying, a revelatory TTRPG based on the classic comic book series and Amazon Prime Video’s titular TV hit. With inexpensive starter sets for beginners to intricate assets and mechanics for seasoned TTRPG fans and Invincible stans, the new tabletop adventure has something for nearly all fans of the franchise.
Invincible – Superhero Roleplaying turns you and your friends into powerful superheroes situated within the series’ universe — or elsewhere, if your super-duper cohort so chooses. “You might be a wisecracking speedster, a super-genius inventor, a grizzled vigilante, a shape-shifting alien, or a high-flying symbol of hope,” Free League Publishing teases in a related news release. “Whatever you play and wherever you go, you’ll have to juggle relationships with patrols, face tough challenges and choices, and learn how to use your powers… and learn more about yourself in the process.”
