The global sensation of THE PLANET OF THE APES comes to tabletop!
Prepare to be thrust onto a planet where humans are the lowest order of living things — and the superior beings are apes. It’s the evolutionary process but in reverse.
Become an intellectual chimpanzee who seeks to better apekind through science and exploration. Choose an orangutan statesape whose weapons are philosophical debate, political savvy, and the power of the Sacred Scrolls themselves. Perhaps a gorilla soldier is more your style — honor-bound to protect Ape City and lead aggressive expansions into new territories. As the first of a new generation of apes, you can even defy traditional roles and become the ape you were always meant to be.
What else, if not ape? Be a time-lost astronaut struggling to grasp a world gone insane. Become a mute tribal human forced to scavenge for resources as you are hunted by murderous gorillas on horseback. The rules even allow you to play mutant survivors who use the power of their minds to turn their enemies against each other.
Built on the official Magnetic Variant (D6MV) of the classic D6 System rule set created by West End Games, the Role-Playing Game of the PLANET OF THE APES is easy to learn yet full of challenges to master. With settings and lore written by sci-fi novelist Andrew E.C. Gaska, this core rulebook contains all you need to roleplay in this upside-down world where apes evolved from humans.
