The Mournwood

Where Madness Grows Like Ivy

Once a place of natural wonder and sylvan beauty, the Mournwood has become a blighted scar upon the land… a festering wound born of the Woe of Ruin. Cursed by ancient magicks and warped by the creeping power of Corruption, this forest no longer belongs to the sane. Bandits and cults whisper forgotten names in the shadows. Necrosic Druids twist nature to vile ends.

The Mournwood is more than just a setting. It is an antagonist in its own right. And as your players delve deeper into its gloom, they will face not only monstrous foes, but the crumbling of reality itself through the Mournwood Madness system, a dynamic progression of psychological and magical decay that escalates as the story unfolds.

With maps, encounter tables, lore-packed location writeups, art for every major NPC and site, and mechanics for madness, exploration, and horror, this is a setting where every root has a secret… and every shadow could be the end.

Immersive Tales. Innovative Design. And Art for… Everything.

At Gooey Cube, we don’t just create adventures. We craft unforgettable tabletop experiences. Our games are meticulously designed to immerse Game Masters - and their players - deep into the shadowed, broken world of Zyathé...

And give GMs everything they could possibly need to weave truly epic tales with ease.

It all starts with story.
Our adventures are rich, sprawling, and emotionally gripping… lovingly crafted for roleplayers who crave more than dungeon crawls plagued with random encounter charts. Written to draw GMs into the narrative just as deeply as their players… each tale is brimming with mystery, danger, and character-driven stakes that evolve over sessions of gameplay.

Prep less. Play more.
Every Gooey adventure comes fully loaded with ready-to-run content: an Adventure Book, a GM Reference Book, gorgeous full-color maps, NPC portraits, item cards, handouts, and so much more. Our unique two-book design keeps the story text and stat blocks side-by-side, so you’re never flipping pages or fumbling for details.

GMs often report saving up to 70% or more of their usual prep time.

A world brought to life. Visually.
We believe players deserve to experience the world they’re adventuring in. That’s why we always include human, hand-crafted art for virtually everything… be that towns, taverns, treasure, monsters, or mysterious strangers. Every visual has a purpose. And every moment is designed to immerse.

Intriguing characters. Deep-rooted lore. Gooey rewards.
From backstory-linked NPCs and game-enhancing extras… to narrative-driven not-so-random encounters... everything contained in a Gooey Cube adventure is meant to make your games more engaging, more immersive, and easier to run.

This isn’t just tabletop. This is storytelling… The Gooey Way.
