Inspired by the works of Jules Verne, Gentleman Explorers is a player's guide for the Amazing Journeys roleplaying game, which was created as part of the author's GloveE column on RPGnet. The volume is focused on character creation, action resolution, and an example; for setting material, the reader is referred back to the primary source.

The primary method of creating a character is to choose a favorite Verne character, and create a description or list or traits by reading the text. Actions are resolved by rolling 1d10 and adding a die for each situational advantage or relevant descriptive trait ("edges"). The highest value is then compare to a table to determine the degree of success.
