Through the Looking Glass, Treasure Island, War of the Worlds - the great literary works of the Victorian era aren't fictional at all. They are travelogues - the accounts of those brave souls who plumb the depths of the Book Without End! Hop aboard the Nautilus, cross swords with the Scarlet Pimpernel, or wield Excalibur against the advancing Martian horde in Passages, as players take on the role of passengers venturing out in the nigh-limitless array of alternate dimensions, teeming with strange denizens and indescribable danger!

Passages presents a new role-playing system that features:
* A single d20 for resolution of all conflicts.
* Only two kinds of checks: attribute checks and skill checks.
* Combat and grappling as skills.
* Classless, point-based character creation.
* Degrees of success and failure based on "spread."

But Passages is so much more than just a new rpg system, it's a fully realized literary campaign setting of the Victorian era. Take the helm of the Nautilus! Cross swords with the Scarlet Pimpernel! Match wits with the devious Professor Moriarty! Anything is possible in the world of Passages.

- Professor Gibberne

“Curative of all things uffish. There are games offered as substitutes which appear as mirror images of Passages but which are dangerous as a bandersnatch—be sure to ask for Passages by name.”
