We make games that ask you to look at things differently.
Talon Grasp Games is a small studio of veteran gamers building the tabletop RPGs we want to run ourselves.
Stretch the imagination in directions it hasn’t gone.
Our mission is to create tabletop games that help you stretch your imagination in directions you had not considered before — worlds rich and vibrant enough that you want to revisit them, over and over.
Perspective is everything — the more of it we have the better we are, not only in how we game but in how we see the world.
Thirty years on both sides of the screen.
Talon Grasp Games staff are veteran gamers with decades of both tabletop and live-action roleplaying experience. We cut our teeth in Vampire: the Masquerade LARPs, and have since played everything from Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu and Ars Magica to Wildsea and Shock: Social Science Fiction.
We believe a game’s mechanics should embed you deeper into the setting, not detract from it. They should be simple enough to learn yet flexible enough to allow two players to reach the same end through completely different narrative means.
While sessions can at times become more “roll” playing than roleplaying, the two do not have to be mutually exclusive. In our games, every test becomes an opportunity for players to narrate.
RPGs are stories, communally built and nurtured. As game producers, we have a responsibility to give you the tools you need to participate in the story without hemming you in.
No AI artwork. Ever.
We fully support the creative output of all artists. As such, Talon Grasp Games refuses to use any artwork generated by artificial intelligence.
Any artist we work with must first make the same commitment, ensuring the art you see in our games is produced by humans, not AI.
