Our Rock & Roar project is going strong and evolving through a bunch of stretch goals. We've added a setting map with places like Stairway to Heaven, Northern Town, Fields of Gold, Jungle Love, etc. And magic items such as Rolling Stones will be a pouch of pebbles you can fling at foes and they...

A couple months back as this idea was percolating we had a fun thread with a bunch of cool ideas to build on it. Now the project is over 1/2 written and we have art for half of it as well. So the Kickstarter is now live! See more previews and details there. But definitely give the video a...

Yeah, I'm wondering if I can combine "fish heads" and "roly poly" or I have to go with one or the other. The idea came from dinner at a Chinese restaurant where one dish wish a whole fish and you're eating right off the bone. Likewise, I'm wondering if I'm going too cute/punny with another I...

Thanks! I'll put it on our suggestions list.

Our next project has just been announced! And it is a bit different... but hopefully 'Totally Awesome'! Click here to learn more about the book of OSR monsters based on classic rock song titles, band names, and lyrics. And help us decide how best to handle the book's game systems via this...
