Let's go on an Adventure

The year is 1995. TLC is blasting on the discman, Seinfeld is on the tv and summer is here. 


It’s time to gather the club and go on an adventure!
Cover art for the core book


The world of Childhood is familiar, yet different, it's still 1995 and Gangsta's Paradise dominates the charts, Batman Forever is in the theatres and you are so anxious to play on the brand new PlayStation.

Childhood is a complete miniatures game. Over 120 pages. Rules, Backgrounds, 90s references and a complete campaign with, coop, vs and solo rules.

From creators of Forbidden Psalm, 28 and Mortel Tales


A game about a long, hot summer, childhood adventures and uncovering the sinister mystery that has invaded your hometown. 

A game for kids, big kids and those pretending to be adults. 


A full narrative campaign that you play over 4 Episodes.


Childhood is a stand-alone tabletop miniatures game from the creator of The Last War and Forbidden Psalm, the creator of 28 and artistic mind behind Mortel Tales.  

The game builds upon the popular Forbidden Psalm ruleset, but it is its own beast. Instead of looting dungeons you have to take on chores, instead of fighting the undead hordes you need to avoid the neighbour's angry cats, instead of going on quests you enjoy adventures.

Childhood is a 28mm miniatures agnostic game. You can use ANY suitable miniatures you already own, or build custom minis for this game. Solo Play and Coop rules are included. 

Childhood is a small-scale skirmish game, where you play with a crew of 4 miniatures per player, against Bad Guys, across adventures that span the length of one long summer in the 90s.



A fully complete ruleset with no other books needed to play

  • Boss fights!
  • Unlockable nicknames
  • 1995 aesthetic 
  • Solo and VS Rules 
  • Over 100 items for you find!
  • Bad Guys to beat, Adventures to go on, mysteries to solve 
  • Goblin Juice
