Land of the Rising Sun (role-playing game)


Land of the Rising Sun is a role-playing game published by Fantasy Games Unlimited in 1980.

Land of the Rising Sun is a samurai system set in feudal Japan. The game is a class-and-level system descended from Chivalry & Sorcery, but even more complex, with rules covering honor, martial arts, aerial and water combat, the astral plane, spirits, demons, and ninjas.

Land of the Rising Sun was a Japanese RPG which used the Chivalry & Sorcery system.

Land of the Rising Sun was designed by Lee Gold and published by Fantasy Games Unlimited in 1980 as a boxed set with a 152-page book and five cardstock reference sheets.

Lawrence Schick stated that the game is: "Difficult to play, but the sections describing the society, culture, and legendry of medieval Japan are quite detailed."
