Adventures with Friends – Rose Whittaker

Gather some friends. Pick an adventure. See where the story takes you.

Visit a whimsical Fey Fayre, solve a mystery for the Spike Patch Grove Gaterfolk, board a haunted train, and discover plenty of other strange and charming places in Adventures with Friends by Rose Whittaker.

This beautifully illustrated collection brings together some of Whittaker’s most popular games along with new material, creating a compendium of quick-setup, single-session role-playing adventures filled with magic, mystery, and an abundance of adorable creatures.

Each one-shot includes the materials needed to gather some friends and play, making the collection approachable for new RPG players while giving experienced groups an easy way to try something completely different for an evening.

A Whole Adventure in One Sitting

Every game in Adventures with Friends is a one-shot: a complete RPG scenario designed to unfold over a single session of a few hours.

No sprawling campaign required.

Choose the adventure that catches your imagination, gather your group, and enter a new world together.

And next time?

Pick another.

Magic, Mystery & Delightfully Strange Creatures

The adventures move through an assortment of imaginative settings and stories.

You might find yourself:

Visiting the Fey Fayre

Investigating a mystery for the Spike Patch Grove Gaterfolk

Taking a haunted train ride

Meeting magical and adorable creatures

Exploring entirely new worlds for an evening

The collection embraces the playful, curious side of tabletop storytelling—plenty of adventure and mystery, but with a warmth and whimsy all its own.

Everything You Need to Play

Each one-shot comes with the materials needed to play the game with friends, keeping setup approachable and letting the group get to the storytelling sooner.

That makes Adventures with Friends especially nice for:

Casual game nights

New RPG players

Experienced groups between campaigns

Trying different kinds of role-playing games

Introducing friends to collaborative storytelling

Anyone who thinks “haunted train ride” sounds like an excellent evening

We certainly do.

A Collection to Come Back To

Because these are individual one-shot games rather than chapters of a single campaign, you don't have to play the collection in order.

Choose what fits the mood.

Play one now and another months later.

Bring the book out when someone suggests game night but nobody wants to spend three hours preparing for game night first.

It's a shelf full of possible evenings in one collection.

Why We Love It

It's wonderfully inviting. The combination of quick setup, approachable play, and imaginative worlds makes this an easy book to bring to a mixed-experience table.

Each game is its own adventure. You're not committing everyone to a campaign before you've finished your snacks.

The tone is delightful. Fey fairs, mysteries, haunted trains, adorable creatures—we're in.

New and experienced players can play together. You don't need years of RPG knowledge to participate.

It feels made for gathering. The title really does say it best: these are adventures to have with friends.
