Isaac Childres, the designer of the popular board game Gloomhaven, is now creating a tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) based on the combat mechanics of Gloomhaven. The TTRPG, called Gloomhaven: The Role Playing Game, is currently being crowdfunded and is expected to ship in July 2024. The game aims to provide an RPG-like experience without the need for a game master, featuring a big open world, combat scenarios, and character interactions. The RPG will use the rules of Gloomhaven: Second Edition and will include new mechanics to fit the flow of an RPG. The core book and deluxe set are available for pre-order.

The cast and crew of "Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves" played a real-life game of "Dungeons & Dragons" together during rehearsals, which influenced the film's script. The directors incorporated some of the qualities the cast brought to the game into the movie. The film borrows from the Marvel playbook and riffing on fantasy tropes has long been a "Dungeons & Dragons" tradition. The final result lacks the coherence of organically grown fantasy epics, but the film is yet another example of the appeal of parasocial fantasy.
