What editions of Hunter Planet are available?

The 1st edition was published in a limited run of 500 copies in 1985. Almost impossible to find. (Although Mum had one sitting in her filing cabinet. Who knew?)

The 2nd Edition had a larger run of over 2,000 copies and ended up in places all over the world, primarily Australia, USA and UK.

Now we are preparing the 3rd Edition. A planned Crowd Funding is planned for June 2026.

Where can I play Hunter Planet?

Local gaming groups develop once one person discovers the game. Now with the Little Hunts variant, games can be played with a CM and two players.

How do I get started with the game?

Begin by choosing a character and using the core rulebook to create your adventure.

Are additional resources available for players?

Yes, we offer expanded content and downloadable materials such as
– Character Record Sheets
– Adventure planners
– Playing aids

Check the Resources page.

I already role-play. Why play another system?

Hunter Planet is not a campaign game. It is a fun one-off type of roleplaying game where you can have a break from your campaign or more detailed game, play Hunter Planet, and return rejuvenated. A low stakes, high fun game is great to get your mojo back.

How long does a game take?

The standard answer is about the length of a movie. After all you are participating in an interactive story.
It all depends on the number of players.
A “Little Hunt” with 2 players will take around 90 minutes. Add about 20-30 minutes per extra player.
The more players involved means more interactions and a deeper game.
But you play with who is available!
