    D&D 5E (2014) Obojima: Tales from the Tall Grass

    Saw an ad for this on the latest episode of Fool's Gold and I like what I'm seeing. My Platonic ideal of D&D (I think I mentioned this in that last Zelda/Ghibli thread) has always been: Crossing vast, picturesque, landscapes, either by road, rail, or airway... Delving into crumbling temples...

    News Digest for August 4, 2023

    Would have expected Monte Cook to get Night Vale. They got Magnus Archives and Old Gods of Appalachia, previously.

    2400 & 24XX: a Beautiful, Three-Page, Micro RPG

    Necro, but new supplement out! The subgenre this time seems pretty obvious. https://jasontocci.itch.io/2400/devlog/560931/junior-hybrid-battle-cryptids-10

    Official Adventure Time RPG Uses New 'Yes And' System

    I actually just saw Wizards, recently. It was pretty alright. I full-on cheered during the final showdown between Blackwolf and Avatar, that was nuts. Also Elinore... being Elinore (Bakshi's going to Bakshi). Don't know how you expand on it, outside of a near-past prequel or a LotR-style...

    Take World War II To Your RPG Night With War Stories

    Huh, pure historicals are a bit uncommon, I think the last one I saw was Hard City a few months back.

    Official Adventure Time RPG Uses New 'Yes And' System

    Given what I've heard of Dungeon/Mutant Crawl Classics, wouldn't it be a bit too lethal for this setting? I'd prefer straight B/X, specifically Old School Essentials.

    Renegade Studios Sends C&D To Stop Small Creator Using The Word 'Renegade'

    I hope these guys call RGS's bluff. See how far they'll take this. And, I agree, the GTA similarities are probably a greater concern.

    Tell Me Of... The Tingleverse RPG

    What in the Sam Hill is this madness?

    🏳️‍🌈Pride Month- Celebrating Representation in TTRPGs🏳️‍🌈

    I'm just going to shout out an indie LGBT+ TTRPG I love: Moonlight on Roseville Beach by R. Rook Studio. Premise: Summer, 1979. Disco is on its way out while the AIDS Epidemic is on the horizon. The players are a group of young folks trying to settle around Roseville Beach and Pinewood...

    D&D Movie/TV Dungeons & Dragons Adventures is a 24-Hour Streaming Channel Launching in Summer

    It's on my Wishlist. I'll get around to downloading it, eventually. Plus, I saw it opening day.

    News Digest for May 12, 2023

    I hope this D&D "channel" isn't a stand-alone app, This seems like the perfect thing for services like Pluto TV (sister company of Paramount) or Tubi. Also, didn't know Lillard was into D&D and co-founded B&G. Neat.

    Pathfinder 2E 2 New Pathfinder Videogames Announced (Update: Abomination Vaults game confirmed)

    That was another thought I had: this looks like it could be a good Diablo alternative (I also had Torchlight, but I've burned through that series, already).

    Pathfinder 2E 2 New Pathfinder Videogames Announced (Update: Abomination Vaults game confirmed)

    Was expecting Elemental Evil... Got Diablo... Eh, could work.

    Pathfinder 2E 2 New Pathfinder Videogames Announced (Update: Abomination Vaults game confirmed)

    The first thing that comes to mind when I hear "Abomination Vault Video Game" is Troika's adaptation of "The Temple of Elemental Evil".

    New Werewolf: The Apocalypse Coming This Summer

    Frick, it's a pun?! Nearly thirty years missing that one!

    Hard City Evokes The Asphalt Jungle, The Maltese Falcon, and The Big Sleep

    This sounds like a decent game, but I can just strip the "Cthulhu" out of Call or Trail. I do appreciate an actual "pure historical" game being on the market, at least.

    New Werewolf: The Apocalypse Coming This Summer

    Well, they the best comedy comes from punching UP at the subject. Which, with how increasingly clear it is that the VAST majority are on equal footing, here at rock bottom.... Yeah, we're pretty much left with the paranoid, xenophobic, oligarchs and their brainwashed jackboots.

    New Werewolf: The Apocalypse Coming This Summer

    Oh, this is finally happening. I'm curious on the lore, too. If only to see how the false-alarm apocalypse went and see how the wolves are faring starring down the twin-barrels of the probable global climate disaster and the... current wave of civil unrest, we'll call it.
