What is Free RPG Day?

Free RPG Day is an annual celebration of tabletop roleplaying games. Publishers put together special, exclusive releases like brand-new adventures, beginner-friendly quick-start guides, and other goodies. They're handed out through participating spots for free. It's a low-pressure way to try a new system, grab something for your home table, or get into TTRPGs for the very first time.

This tradition kicked off in 2007, inspired by Free Comic Book Day, and has since grown to more than 700 stores worldwide. Here are some great reads to find out the full story:
