A couple of spooky (and short) RPGs I’ve written in the past year - ideal for GMs looking for something low effort and terrifying to run this Hallowe’en 🎃 🦇
It’s spooky season and we’re all running Halloween Specials - here’re a couple of zero-prep one-shots for the GM who’s left it to the last minute 🦇

Off-Season - You are park rangers investigating cryptids

Book of Strangers - Monsters are knocking at your door. Yes YOURS!

Do I need the next campaign when I haven’t even finished the first? Yes, I think so!

RPG production people, a humble request from your old pal Sam: uncoated paper, please! it feels nicer on your fingertips, it sounds nicer to turn, and most importantly you can write on it! I love to annotate my RPG books, but glossy pages make that difficult. if you're printing an RPG, go uncoated 🙏

Is there something in the lake at Asher's Ridge? 👀

More 'mostly finished' artwork for my next game.

Asher's Ridge is a GM-less #ttrpg for 1-4 players where you direct and play through a paranormal drama TV show. Inspired by Twin Peaks and The X-Files.
