1976 Metamorphosis Alpha back in print

Ward Co. have brought the classic roleplaying game Metamorphosis Alpha back in print form via Print on Demand publisher, LuluMetamorphosis Alpha.

Said to be the first science-fiction RPG, Metamorphosis Alpha was created by James M. Ward and was originally published by TSR in 1976.

The original game has been edited to incorporate error fixes and to add an adventure. The new edition of the original version is 35 pages long.

One thing to beware of with Lulu, is that they do not disclose shipping/postage costs, until you get to the stage where you enter your credit card. So the price you see on their page is not going to be the price you pay.

Metamorphosis Alpha is also available as a PDF via RPG.Now.

    Thanks for the feedback on the game – it has been a pleasure making the game available again.

    Jim Ward has been very pleased with the feedback from new and old fans about this. If you are going to GaryCon, please hassle him into signing your copy :)

    I wish that I had The House On The Hill (The MA module) available on Lulu instead of Amazon or the other way around, so people could order both from the same source.

    I won’t make that mistake next time :)
