Canadian RPG Marketplace hops the pond and launches UK Site & Reward Program

Canadian-based Compose Dream Games has just launched an indie RPG marketplace in the UK. It already features 36 of their 44 publishers. All print titles include a PDF guarantee, a promise which is extended to those purchasing from their friendly local game store. Many PDF only titles are also available.

In March, Compose Dream Games launched a reward program on their Canadian site. Anyone purchasing a PDF on either marketplace receives one reward point for each $1 or £1 spent. Points can be redeemed for 10 cents or pence off any subsequent PDF purchase.

Publishers with multiple titles now available in the UK include:

Buried Without Ceremony (Monsterhearts 2e,The Quiet Year)

Genesis of Legend (After the War,Sig: City of Blades)

Hit Point Press (Humblewood,Griffon’s Saddlebag)

Compose Dream Games (Simple Superheroes #0,God-Killer Prophecy)

Sword’s Edge (Centurion, Sword Noir 2e)

Some other notable titles include: The Monster Overhaul, Fight to Survive, Free Spacer, Ross Rifles, This City Must Burn and many others.

Compose Dream Games is an ardent supporter of the indie RPG scene in Canada, and has brought many UK based publisher’s titles to Canada. UK publishers distributed by Compose Dream Games in Canada include Parable Games, We Evolve, Critical Kit, Beyond Cataclysm, Rowan, Rook & Decard, and more. “One of our major goals is to help hobby game stores have easy access to great indie RPGs,” says Kitz. “We’ve done that successfully in Canada and after two years of attending conventions in the UK, it was clear there was a need we could fill here too.”

The UK site composedreamgames.co.uk launches with a focus on Canadian publisher’s games which have been harder to acquire in that market. The breadth of titles available will be expanding rapidly in the coming months, including many UK based publishers.

The Compose Dream Games RPG Marketplace first launched in Canada in 2017 with 8 publishers, shortly after the release of Kitz’s first game Simple Superheroes #0. “The goal has always been to get more great RPGs into people’s hands and to meet those people where they are,” says Kitz.
