Close Encounters

Close Encounters is a fantasy role-playing game where your real-world location becomes part of the adventure.

Create a unique character, encounter nearby players and wandering NPCs, and survive a world filled with magic, danger, treasure, and unpredictable battles.

Choose your kindred and class, build your stats, collect equipment, learn spells, and grow stronger through combat and trade. Every character has strengths, weaknesses, inventory limits, armor, weapons, gold, spells, and progression that shape how they survive.

Features include:

Location-based fantasy encounters

Player-versus-player duels

NPC encounters, including travelers, merchants, seers, and hostile enemies

In-game chat and trade

Character stats, equipment, gold, spells, inventory, and level progression

Fantasy combat with weapons, armor, spellcasting, fleeing, loot, and experience

Weather and time-of-day atmosphere

A classic tabletop-inspired RPG feel

Fight with weapons, cast spells, negotiate trades, talk to strangers, or flee when the odds turn against you. Victory can bring gold, loot, and experience — but defeat may cost you.

Whether you are scanning for nearby adventurers, buying gear, learning magic, or facing a dangerous enemy on the road, every session can lead to a new close encounter.

Step into the world around you. Adventure may be closer than you think.
