Camp Snallygaster - a Summer Camp Horror One-Shot has just dropped!

It's 1993, and things at Camp Snallygaster are getting... strange. When dedicated Camp Leader Murie goes missing, three counselors contend with keeping campers safe as they uncover the truth.

slugblaster's epilogue rules give easy mechanics to something I hadn't ever really considered but oft wanted in systems - a framework for ending the game in a way that feels satisfying.

Yes we did just finish our year long campaign and YES I'M FEELING FEELINGS ABOUT IT.

the absolute carnal whiplash between reading eat the reich and cryptid creeks is what I love about this #ttrpg hobby tbh

picked up cryptid creeks by @hatchlingdm.itch.io and just continually impressed with the work, the vibe, and the follow through on inspiration. I knew I needed to put it in my list to run, but now I need to push it FAR up my list to play SOONER.

Harvest is a "beautiful cursed woodcut of a game" and Rascal writer Thomas Manuel's game of the year. GMless diceless period folk horror, it revolves around a golden paradise off Britain's coast preserved by generational ritual sacrifice, and which you'll choose: die for the island, or kill for it.

i hope this “thanksgiving” you take a moment to learn about, remember, and uplift the Indigenous labor and lives that this nation was built on. its okay and good still to give thanks, but do it without erasure of the real history behind this day. happy National Day of Mourning❤️

When I was a kid, the only Native representation I saw in cartoons was A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving Special.

I made Pow! to show that modern, funny Native characters deserve to be seen too. Watch us on FNX. If you like it, review us on @letterboxd.social and tell your friends!
