a room of quiet

Founded in 2014 in Oxford, England. Rqex began as a reading group among historians, writers, and illustrators who believed games could hold the weight of literature.

Our studio occupies a former Victorian library — oak shelves, stained glass, and the scent of old paper. We write by candlelight and design by rainlight.
