- This article is about the role-playing game Engel; Engel is also the German word for Angel and a song by Rammstein
Engel is a relatively new role-playing game (RPG). The original German version uses a new kind of RPG system in which the Gamemaster and players draw associative, tarot-like cards instead of rolling dice to determine the outcome of an event (this system is called Arcana system in the original German version). The English version of "Engel" does not include the Arcana system at all, it is based on the d20 system instead. The German version includes d20 rules in addition to the Arcana system. The game has been published by the German publisher Feder&Schwert (http://www.feder-und-schwert.com) (translates: "Feather&Sword"), who also publishes the World of Darkness RPG series in Germany.
In German der Engel means the Angel.
- Engel (song) and Rammstein.
