The Creature Crafter Review.

A brief review of a very functional, system neutral TTRPG sourcebook centered on bringing new bizarre monsters to the table faster. I like it!

A system neutral TTRPG sourcebook by Tom Pigeon. I bought a physical copy on Amazon.com, but you can also find the digital version here on DriveThruRPG.com. You can also find it on the company’s website www.wordmillgames.comMy first impression was sullied by the buffoons that delivered my order. The envelope it came in was battered, wet, and torn. Thanks, Amazon. I owe ya one. My physical copy…

Shadowdark Review Part 1.

Review of Shadowdark RPG Part 1. This absolute winner made over $1.25 million on Kickstarter. The team from the Arcane Library really did a great job.

Game created by The Arcane Library. Full Disclosure: This review is going to be highly biased. I’ve known Kelsey Dionne since before Shadowdark was born. I consider her a friend and I really like this game. I am a late backer to the Kickstarter, but I would have been an early backer had I been able to. I have believed in this project since I first saw the playtest document. That having been…

Singularity System Review

End Transmission Games made Singularity System, a futuristic cyberpunk game with heavy space sci-fi elements. Good game, but not a lot of built-in setting information.

A #indiettrpgmonth gem worthy of some attention. Singularity System is a TTRPG by End Transmission games. The link to the DriveThruRPG.com title is here. Do you like Cyberpunk? Do you like space games such as Silent Death? How about Babylon 5? If you said “yes” to any of these things, then The Singularity System might be right for you. Unfortunately, it looks like End Transmission Games went out…

The Curse of Er'Mah'Gerd Review.

I was a little nervous when David Michael Williams asked me to take a look at this adventure because my group doesn't tend to do straight comedy. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the adventure overall and the humor is outstanding.

The Curse of Er’Mah’Gerd Review.Adventure Written By:  David Michael Williams.Produced By: ONE MILLION WORDSAvailable on DriveThruRPG.com here. It’s a good almost mini campaign. I’m not even sure where to start without dropping any spoilers. David Michael Williams is no stranger to writing excellent fiction, but this is his first foray into publishing an RPG product. Obviously this author is no…

Some Sci-Fi Games Off the Beaten Space Lane.

Space! Whether it's Pigs in Space, Star Trek, Space 1999, Babylon 5, or Lost in Space, who doesn't love a good space RPG? Here are 5 games you may or may not have heard of before.

In the mood for a Sci-Fi RPG? Please take a look at these games. May Fourth’s article got me in the mood for a space game again. There are heaps I could mention. I wanted to go with some that are maybe not as well known as Starfinder. With Spelljammer coming for D&D in August, I wanted to throw some alternatives out ahead of time. I wish DwD would keep going with this! Frontierspace by DwD…
