Happy New Year, ’Finders! As we dive into 2025, we’d like to take a moment to celebrate our best books and games of 2024!
When the war god Gorum dies, his divine essence and war-infused blood rain across all existence in an event known as the Godsrain. This precipitating event leads to the birth of monsters and mythic heroes alike, shaking the world of Golarion to its very core. This meta event crossed the Pathfinder rulebook, adventure, and lore lines—plus saw a return to published fiction!
A god has been slain and nothing shall ever be the same again! As war and destruction spread across the world, new heroes must rise to the occasion and take up arms to protect its mortal inhabitants. Two brand-new classes provide new ways to engage with mythic themes! Lay claim to your own spark of divinity and charge into battle as a mighty exemplar, or call upon the power of spiritual allies as a wise animist. Alongside these new classes are rules for running mythic games, archetypes for playing legendary characters, and a wide array of new items, spells, and monsters to tell stories straight out of myth and legend that fit perfectly into the remastered Pathfinder rules!
Pathfinder Lost Omens Divine Mysteries
The influence of all-powerful deities is felt in every corner of the Lost Omens setting. Whether you’re a valorous champion calling the righteous power of your patron down upon wicked foes or a sneaky rogue asking the god of thievery for a blessing on your next heist, faith and the forces behind it are key to every character’s identity. Within this volume, you’ll find details on the gods and non-deific faiths of the Age of Lost Omens from the perspective of their clergy and lay worshippers. The book also grants a glimpse into the machinations of a god, exploring how a new god rises, why a god takes worshippers in the first place, and what occurs when a god dies.
Four veteran adventurers—the barbarian Amiri; the wizard Ezren; the cleric Kyra; and her wife, the elven rogue Merisiel—witness calamity, and with their newfound mythic power find themselves on the trail of fell forces looking to capitalize on the chaos. Using their unique skills, nascent god-sparks, and even the firsthand blessings of one of Golarion’s most potent deities, they must race against time and fate to prevent the greatest threat to Golarion and beyond from escaping an impenetrable prison.
Starfinder First Edition went out with a bang, not a whimper! Starfinder First Edition’s final Adventure Path was a hardbound collection of three volumes of mech pilot mayhem. Fight colossi and demonic forces, befriend (or romance?) your rival pilots, and save Daimalko!
Starfinder Mechageddon! Adventure Path
On a rugged planet crawling with colossi—terrifying kaiju that demolish cities with fearsome power—courageous mech pilots battle monsters to protect the world’s people. As the war for control of planet Daimalko rages on, a mysterious third power plots to use an ancient artifact to purge the planet of all life. It’s time for Daimalko’s defenders to suit up against a new threat!
From Paizo Games Designers Jason Bulmahn and Joe Pasini, Pathfinder Elemental Stones is a pattern-building game with hidden role mechanics! Play as an elemental lord seeking to control the board with patterns of your element—and learn the cycle of the elements as you play!
Take on the role of an elemental sovereign, shaping the very nature of reality in this fast-moving board game!
2 to 4 players take turns to draft and play colorful (and colorblind-friendly) hexagonal tiles to match specific patterns and meet their own secret objective. With several dozen pattern cards, variable objectives, and a game state that’s constantly in flux, you’ll never play the same way twice. Simple setup, easy-to-learn rules, and a short play time of around 30 minutes means there’s always time for one more game…
