    Hidden Treasure from The Making of Original Dungeons & Dragons

    Thanks, Beth. This is a very detailed review that helps guide the target audience. It would be a great addition to libraries, but pretty expensive still. If my budget allows for it, I will purchase a copy to keep as an historic document, since the internet is not as eternal as we once thought...

    2d20 Heroes of Might and Magic RPG from Ubisoft and Modiphius

    I know many of the older players who were kids playing computer games may have come across the Heroes of Might and Magic series. My introduction was through the third edition that is "Heroes of Might and Magic III" and "Armageddon's Blade". I am sure we have different experiences, and some...

    D&D 5E (2024) Check Out The 2025 Monster Manual Alternate Cover!

    Contrary to those saying these are uninspired, I actually now want all three alternate covers in a giftset.

    D&D 5E (2014) New Monster Manual Cover

    Very nice action cover, but it confuses me: is that beholder an ally to the Players or an enemy the Players have not taken seriously yet?

    A Preview of The Making of Original Dungeons & Dragons: 1970-1977

    So I travelled to the UK Games Expo in 2024, and on this 50th Anniversary Year of Dungeons and Dragons, I could not find any officials from Wizards of the Coast with preview copies of the wonderful anniversary books. Paizo was there but also in much smaller capacity. Monte Cook Games was there...

    D&D 5E (2024) New Dungeon Master's Guide Cover Features Venger (From the D&D Cartoons)

    I really like the contrast between PHB versus DMG covers: happy go-lucky Adventures versus grimdark GM here

    Witness The Fall Of Dune’s Imperium First Hand

    Wow! What a detailed review. But is it not a bit spoilery?

    D&D General Greyhawk to Faerun and Beyond: A Multiversal D&D Lore Book Is Coming This Fall

    Sorry, you must have misread what I wrote. I simply pointed out Dark Sun was not mentioned in the brief marketing callouts for this new book. And then I read the CEO of Hasbro was keen on Kara-Tur, which I believe was never brought back in any edition after its original boxset, except to be...

    D&D General Greyhawk to Faerun and Beyond: A Multiversal D&D Lore Book Is Coming This Fall

    Will not cover Dark Sun? The last official lore was from 4th Edition. And the Hasbro CEO even mentioned an interest in Kara-Tur

    D&D 5E (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Alternate Art Cover Reveal

    Same, here. I wanted to wait till 2025 for the special giftset, but this is so lovely, I am afraid it may be soldout if I wait that long, so have to purchase it this year now.

    D&D 5E (2024) New D&D Edition's Player’s Handbook Cover Reveal

    The cover for the 2024 PHB is generic and unambitious, which is a good thing, in that it showcases the new Dungeons and Dragons continues the 5th Edition easily accessible design mantra.

    WotC 2024 D&D Core Rules Will Be Added To SRD In 2025

    What a beautiful update. Hallelujah!!! Thank you to all the fans who fought against the monetization of the OGL drafted by greedy lawyers. And a bigger thank you to the brave creative staff at Wizards of the Coast who stood alongsid the fans.

    Press West End Games' D6 System 2E Is Coming From Gallant Knight Games!

    West End Games Star Wars remains so beloved, I wonder if this generic D6 Second Edition will take Kickstarter by storm, like a " Million Dollars Storm"?

    Born from Ice: Stone Age RPG – An Interview With Loren Small (Small Cog Creative)

    I am surprised this 5e game has not already funded, when a recently launched Free League game has funded in minutes. Seems 5e is being affected by the 2024 New D&D rollout plan.

    Kickstarter Coriolis The Great Dark by Free League

    Though I wish this retained the heavy Persian-aesthetic of the earlier edition, this still looks awesome. CORIOLIS: THE GREAT DARK (Kickstarter from Free League, creators of the popular Alien RPG)...

    Born from Ice: Stone Age RPG – An Interview With Loren Small (Small Cog Creative)

    Wow! The author responded, and I am grateful. Thank you; I am very much won over to try this long D&D campaign that does not end up with all Players getting flight ability and magic gizmos galore. And my Survivalist's Guide to Spelunking by Douglas Niles, can finally pose a challenge for Players...

    Born from Ice: Stone Age RPG – An Interview With Loren Small (Small Cog Creative)

    Looks like a great role playing game to introduce into schools and it also reminds of the prehistoric novels by Jean Auel. I wish someone asked why levels 1 to 20? I have several low magic D&D books like Adventures in Middle-earth and Trudvang Adventures and both stop at 10th level to avoid...
