No idea why there are so many new superhero RPGs nowadays, but I love it.

Okay, KOKOTÖNA is something I’ve wished for for years: more games building fantasy out of pre-Columbian materials, by people with more clues than I have. I fell on it with glad little cries. Thank you for pointing it out!

It does look very intriguing. Even though it will be hard for me to get a chance to play it, I'll back the campaign.

Wandering Cities also looks interesting to me, but I'm a bit disappointed about the lack of a digital version.

I have the same feeling, @Nikosandros If they add a digital option, I’ll be on it.

Duginthroat Divided is funding on Kickstarter. It's a large-ish dungeon for OSE, designed to take PCs from levels 1-4. The art is astonishing, and the adventure looks really solid, but the only thing that gives me pause is the lead time; it's planning on releasing in August, 2026, and that just seems like an awfully long time with everything going on in the world.

I playtested it this spring/summer, and had a lot of fun with it.

There is a castle hidden in the wilds, inhabited by bandits who prey on the trade road. In our campaign, we were lowlifes seeking to join them, but just prior to us reaching the castle, a massive lightning bolt split it in half, and now very weird stuff was happening and the bandits were spooked. It is full of fun ideas.
