Necromancer Games


Necromancer Games was an American publisher of role-playing games. With offices in Seattle, Washington and Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, the company specialized in material for the d20 System, with most of its products being released under the Open Game License of Wizards of the Coast.

The company's slogan, "Third Edition Rules, First Edition Feel," alluded to the fact that while its products use the third edition of the Dungeons & Dragons rules system, they strive to mimic the flavor and style found in game's first edition; neither edition is supported by new products from the publisher of Dungeons & Dragons, Wizards of the Coast, which publishes material only for the fifth edition of the game.

As of 2010, the company is on indefinite hiatus, the two founders having started two separate new game companies, Frog God Games and Legendary Games.

In June 2012, Necromancer Games was acquired by Frog God Games.

Necromancer Games was founded in 2000 by Clark Peterson and Bill Webb, the same year Wizards of the Coast released the third edition of the Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game. The company has partnered with several other gaming companies to release various products, including Judges Guild, Kenzer & Company, Malhavoc Press, Reaper Miniatures, Troll Lord Games, and White Wolf Publishing.
