First we discovered that the Earth is round.
Then we discovered that it’s hollow.
Now we must keep its secrets from falling into the wrong hands.
Explore one of the world’s greatest and most dangerous secrets: the Hollow Earth, a savage land filled with dinosaurs, lost civilizations, and ferocious savages! Players take on the roles of two-fisted adventurers, eager academics and intrepid journalists investigating the mysteries of the Hollow Earth. Meanwhile, on the surface, world powers and secret societies vie for control of what may be the most important discovery in all of human history.
Set in the tense and tumultuous 1930s, the action-filled Hollow Earth Expedition is inspired by the literary works of genre giants Edgar Rice Burroughs, Jules Verne, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The subterranean action is powered by Ubiquity, an innovative role playing game system that emphasizes storytelling and cinematic action.

| 5 + 5 | Tim Knight | Hollow Earth Expedition. An elegant system, a wonderful background, and you get to fight dinosaurs and Nazis! What more could you want from a Pulp game? [ Read Review ] |
| 5 + 5 | Dan Davenport | Hollow Earth Expedition. This is not the best all-purpose pulp game out there. That is because it does not try to be. But in its wonder-filled Hollow Earth filled to the bursting with dinosaurs and other megafauna, ancient miraculous technologies, Nazi occultists, pirates, Amazons, and beastmen – just to scratch the surface (pardon the pun) – it may well be the best simulation of a specific pulp genre since Call of Cthulhu.

| 6 / 10 | TrippyHippy | Nice presentation, with a reasonably familiar dice pool mechanic. I can't help but think that the 1930s era it is set in is actually out of place. If they wanted to recreate the worlds inspired by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Jules Verne, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, then surely a late Victorian era would be better? |
| 9 / 10 | Ars Mysteriorum | Nazis, dinosaurs, and conspiracies involving Atlantis all in a pulp wrapper. Pair this with a workable, wonderful system and you have one hell of a game. |
