Son of Oak continues its extraordinary momentum: recently, Legend in the Mist, the studio’s rustic fantasy roleplaying game, was able to hold the #2 bestselling position on DriveThruRPG for weeks. It is currently the top-rated 2025 game on DriveThruRPG… and Legend in the Mist is already expanding its scope, as 3rd-party publishers are now also releasing roleplaying games and settings that run on Son of Oak’s proprietary Mist Engine.

Following successful projects like Zamanora: Ballad of the Witch, a Balkan & Slavic folklore supplement from Eren Chronicles that recently closed at 1,517% of its Kickstarter goal, we are excited to announce Beyond the Woods for Legend in the Mist!

After an extremely successful Kickstarter for its dark fantasy Dungeons and Dragons 5E campaign setting, Old Oak Games will soon launch another Kickstarter campaign, this time for the Legend in the Mist adaptation of this amazing world. Drawing from Irish folklore and mythology, Beyond the Woods steps away from Legend in the Mist’s trademark rustic fantasy into a more heroic, unforgiving dark fantasy setting. In it, Player Characters venture into the haunted lands of Tír Nascath. Their mission: to find out what is causing the magical light emanating from the Golden Oak to wane. Their efforts will determine the fate of their homeland, as the light of the tree is the only thing keeping the spectral legion of the accursed dead known as the Sluagh at bay.

The supplement builds on the success of both the original Beyond the Woods Kickstarter and the meteoric rise of Legend in the Mist, while highlighting the rapidly growing library of licensed LitM content now available to players.
