I wrote that thing you might have read that one time. Worked on everything from Castlevania to Pokemon, & have had a hand in several TTRPGs over the years. If you want to see an old Goth post pictures of painted miniatures or a horde of cats, here you go.

I was skeptical about Palladium getting the TMNT license back after what happened with Robotech, but the new edition showed up at my doorstep this morning and man, is it pretty.

Day 61: Call of Cthulhu
It’s CoC. Chaosium is in its third incarnation, but BRP has only had slight Botox with each passing edition. Compare that to D&D‘s editions.
The best in our industry have written for it, played it, & worshipped it as a dark master in secret covens posing as TTRPG groups.

Day 61: VtM
What really needs to be said about this. VTM is the most successful and influential game after D&D. (Maybe CoC takes that these days). It gave us the biggest LARP, a prime time drama after X-Files, WWF’s The Brood, and brought women to gaming in large droves for the first time ever.

Day 59: Vaesen
I love Free League for bringing over a lot of foreign language RPGs. Vaesen is my favorite of the lot they are doing. Vaesan is such a great alternative to the other “real world” horror games, that are usually cosmic horror or Word of Darkness based. The art is so unique too.

Day 58: Mummy: The Curse
The New World of Darkness has their own Mummy game and it is utterly different from the OWOD version, or any game really. I would only call it a horror game because you play as mummies, but really is is an amazingly look at introspection, morality, power and sanity.

Day 57: Old Gods of Appalachia.
You know what? I own & enjoy reading it, but I have never found anyone willing to run or play a game of it. It’s a shame too, because it’s a nice alternative to the usual cosmic horror RPG. It uses the Cypher System, like Numenera, which can also be quite horrific.

Day 56: Mork Borg
The Borg line has been my favorite new game in decades, if only for the cracktastic spin-offs 3rd parties have come up with. Usually the third party stuff for lines like D&D, VtM & etc are just too subpar to mention, but the Borg stuff is just consistently tremendous.

Day 55: Werewolf: The Wild West.
W3 was an attempt to recapture the magic of Vampire: The Dark Ages. As was Mage: The Sorcerer’s Crusade & Wraith: The Great War. None of these captured the imagination or magic of TDA, but W3 at least received multiple supplements & even a Wraith crossover or two.

Day 54: Macabre Tales.
This is one of the more unique RPGs out there. It is for a single player and a narrator & they weave a tale together. It’s also only meant to be for one shots, as protagonists rarely repeated in actual HPL tales. It also uses dominoes instead of dice for a fun mechanic.

Day 53: Visigoth Vs. Mall Goths.
It’s more Bill & Ted meets Empire Records, but there’s Goths, it is near Halloween & the game is pretty smutty which is horrifying to homo and transphobes alike. I could pick something spookier, but I’m going with this because it’s fun & deserves more eyes on it.

Day 52: Werewolf: The Apocalypse
Werewolf was always the #2 WoD TTRPG. It was incredibly good; just harder to LARP. It was a game about unreliable narrating eco warriors trying to save existence from Captain Planet style evil. Except as the metaplot advanced - you learned that wasn’t quite true.
