Welcome to the official Metamorphosis Alpha home page. This site supports all versions of James M. Ward's game, Metamorphosis Alpha. However, it concentrates largely on the new edition.

   Metamorphosis Alpha was the first sci-fi RPG, originally published in 1976 - so it’s been around for 30 years! The new version of the game is published by Mudpuppy Games and is currently available online at Studio 2.
 

   You can see what the new book looks like in the “Preview” page. The book is a 176 page sturdy hardcover with some terrific maps, great illustrations, and an original cover painted by Jim Holloway. Just beautiful!

   What does the future hold for this version of the game? Well, for one thing, we are supporting the game, with online forums and official products. There is even a free online webzine that fans can download (MAJOR, The Metamorphosis Alpha Journal & Online Resource). You will need to join our Yahoo! Group to subscribe. Issue No. 4 has been released and Issue No. 5 is just around the corner.

   Jim Ward has also announced that the Metamorphosis Alpha Card Game is nearly ready to be published, so fingers crossed, we’ll be seeing that on the shelves soon!

   More details of our plans are available to registered members on the official forum. It’s worth your time to join, especially if you want to take part in shaping the future of the game. Keep an eye out for play-testing opportunities for some of our upcoming products, such as the Metamorphosis Alpha Card Game or Colony Ship Bonnie Brown :)

   So, take a look around, join in the forum if you feel the need, and most of all, enjoy what you find here. If you have any suggestions, please email me via the “Contact Us” link over on the left hand side of the page.
