Do you have what it takes in the Far Realm?

Hardcore Mode, Spring 2025, UK

Dive deeper, play longer, and immerse yourself in our most exhilarating gaming adventure – Hardcore Mode at D&D in a Castle. This Spring, March 24-28, Hardcore Mode is Dungeon Mastered by the creator of some of D&D’s most beloved adventures, such as “Icewind Dale: Rime of the Frostmaiden” and “Wild Beyond the Witchlight”. Will Doyle has custom-built “Keep on the Far Realm” for D&D in a Castle, and it brings to bear all his vast creativity, deep knowledge and immense passion for the game. Tailored for those who simply cannot get enough of Dungeons & Dragons, this experience offers an unparalleled 36 hours of immersive gameplay across the 4-days of D&D in a Castle.

“Keep on the Far Realm” is designed to challenge and engage on every level. With 36 hours of intense gameplay, every moment is crafted to test your strategic thinking, teamwork, and ability to adapt to the unexpected. Expect epic battles, intricate puzzles, and plot twists that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

The setting is as twisted and unpredictable as the Far Realm itself. The adventure begins in the Forgotten Realms but quickly spirals into chaos as your party finds themselves defending a castle that has been torn from its world and hurled into the Far Realm.

This nightmarish dimension is a place where the laws of reality bend and break, filled with aberrations, horrors, and alien landscapes that defy description. In this setting, survival isn’t just about fighting off enemies; it’s about maintaining your sanity as you navigate a world where nothing is as it seems. The castle itself becomes a character in the story—a fortress of last hope that you must defend, even as its defenders are plagued by fear, betrayal, and the creeping influence of the Far Realm.

Dungeon Master Will Doyle, a freelance designer with an impressive track record, has become a major force in the world of tabletop RPGs. His blog, Beholder Pie, gained widespread acclaim for its innovative ideas, leading to several of his adventures being published in Dungeon Magazine during the latter days of 4th Edition. His work is consistently among the best in the field, known for its creativity, depth, and ability to surprise even the most experienced players. Will’s talents were further recognized when he won the 2014 One Page Dungeon Contest and EN World’s 5e adventure design contest. His adventures are not just about the challenges they present; they are about creating memorable stories and experiences that resonate long after the game has ended. With Will as your Dungeon Master, you are in for a ride that will push the boundaries of what you thought possible in a D&D game.

“Keep on the Far Realm” is designed for those who crave the thrill of Hardcore Mode—a setting where the stakes are high, and every decision counts. This game is perfect for players who want to be fully immersed in a world where danger lurks around every corner, and where the challenges are as mental as they are physical. However, while the intensity is high, this campaign is also welcoming to players of all experience levels. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran of countless campaigns or a newcomer looking for a baptism by fire, Will Doyle’s “Keep on the Far Realm” offers an unforgettable experience. It’s for anyone who wants to be part of a story that will be talked about for years to come.

Prepare yourself for an adventure unlike any other, where the only certainty is the unexpected. In the Far Realm, reality is fluid, allies are few, and the line between victory and madness is razor-thin. Will you rise to the challenge?
