Whispers of the Deep 2026

Beneath the broken surface of the world lies Tolkas, a drowned city lost to time and shadows. Its streets twist through flooded plazas and decaying halls, where spirits drift like fog and strange flora sit waiting for a victim.

Every step in Tolkas is a descent. Every corner holds a memory half-buried in silt and damp. This is a place where the treasure glimmers just out of reach, and where the deep always watches.

Welcome to Whispers of the Deep, a skirmish game set in the flooded ruins of Tolkas. In this game, you command a Delver, a mystic soul bound to a physical vessel, and a band of hired Fellows as you face off against another player in a head-to-head search for lost treasure.

Each game of Whispers of the Deep is played on a 2x2 tabletop with 2-3 miniatures per side. You’ll dive into ruined terrain, mine treasure, and survive encounters with spirits that emerge as the game’s danger level rises. Making use of a simple D8 dice system, each unit has a small range of stats. Move, Brains, Brawn and Armor. Your stat will tell you how many D8s to roll.

As you create more chaos, the spirits grow more aggressive, drawing random event cards and triggering unpredictable threats.
