And so began TSRs Gamma World game in 1978: A rich post-holocaust science fantasy setting.
- Finding relics in long-deserted cities of the Ancients...
- Encountering bizarre mutated animals...
- Thinning foliage that fights back...
A complete boxed set will include the main rules book and a large campaign map of ruined North America.

This is the setting for a GAMMA WORLD ™ campaign¸ with players taking on the persona of an individual character somewhere in this forbidding locale. In a quest for survival and in search of a better future¸ the players adventure across the land¸ enduring hardships and encountering dangerous obstacles and mysterious foes - never knowing quite what to expect. The result is a game which can go in many directions¸ but which will be challenging and fascinating no matter what the outcome.
The GAMMA WORLD™ Set includes all the basics needed to set up your own "world": game booklet (packed with terrible mutants¸ as well as guidelines for creating additional ones of your own)¸ a large campaign map (designed to be easily modified by individual gamemasters)¸ and a full set of polyhedra dice. The only other things necessary are a good imagination and a spirit of adventure! The GAMMA WORLD ™ rules are also suitable for use with the ADVANCED DUNGEONS & DRAGONS TM rules.
The GAMMA WORLD challenge awaits you - are you ready?
