Cypher System Creator Highlights

Dread Unicorn Games are creators of The Sun Below series of adventures for the Numenera setting. A world below this one, a world with its own sun. Full of strange peoples, amazing discoveries, and unspeakable horror.

Ganza Gaming Chris is one of the most prolific content creators for the Cypher System with 20 or so titles. His Mortal Fantasy is a long-standing number one community supplement. I got to review his Changing Seasons adventure here and it’s really good.

Ethan Hudgens gobbed onto the Cypher scene out of nowhere with his fantastic Gobs of Gobs stories of adventure and friendship in a wholesome, goofy, and cartoony-logic setting. Play as Gobs! Try not to get into too much trouble! But then do anyways!

Dean Lewis is the author of Heroic Essentials and The Umbral Earth. Buy these two and run a supers horror game like Brightburn, Blade, or the upcoming movie The New Mutants.

Janek Sielicki published one supplement and two adventures: The Bridges we Burn and A Breath of Fresh Air which was a breath of fresh air at the time I reviewed it.

Peculiar Books has a range of adventures and supplements for the Cypher System, out of which Fantasy Ancestries and Modern Types are among top ten community titles.

Peter Clevvall is ready for the end of the world with his two post-apocalyptic titles Post-Apocalyptic Genre and Wasteland Crafting. A must buy for preppers.

Douglas Miller penned several supplements The Machine God’s Temple being the most popular. If your world has machines, gods, and temples, this Cypher adventure is a perfect fit.

Michael Rees published a time-traveling adventure Sea of Time before anyone realized we need one. I wonder how he did it.

Taylor LaBresh authored an adventure called Creatures of Blood and Flesh. I didn’t read it, but I will take a plunge here and call it a post-Cthulu science fiction because it sounds amazing.

Mephit James’ Cybernetics and Martial Arts supplements are a perfect bundle for that cyber ninja fantasy you never got to play out.

Tom Robinson offers a wide range of adventures from historical Treasure of Rio Grande to goofy supers title Invader From The Dark Dimension and gothic horror The Haunting of Creedmore Asylum. Now that’s what I call a thematic spread.

Stephen Seibert likes bugs. Huge mutant alien bugs. And also cultists. In Bug Hunt: The Children of Argent you get to squash some. Not sure if as children.

Aser Tolentino’s A Cold and Distant Hunger brings sci-fi horror close and hot, title is a lie, just sayin’.
