Picture Monday: missing the Christmas Kraken reminds me of all the Cthulhu games I could be playing. Here's a picture of some German language supplements I shot in a game shop in Germany this November.

(for context: It's a tradition at the international game meet up (cult?) The Kraken to post about your character from the sessions you played, whether TTRPG or any other game. The Winter Kraken is happening this weekend)

I was Mago, Son of Barossus, Sturmbull. Following a map into the Rubble I got attacked by a spirit, went Berserk to shake it off and slew other enemies. (RQ with @dracowie.bsky.social)

So after visiting Finland and getting some editing for older recordings done, I am considering tackling the #TTRPG scene in Nordic countries. Which is a challenge because there is sooo much. Any advice on where to start, particularly Sweden and Finland? (I have some leads for Norway/Denmark/Iceland)

Picture Monday: Bad hair day! So during my trip to Finland, I also took a one day tour by ferry to Tallinn, Estonia. Very cute city. They also have a nice well stocked gaming shop named Mabrik. I couldn't really interact with the locals because they were all busy playing MtG or mini games.

Finland is pretty awesome, also almost everyone I talk to knows what an RPG is and often has some gaming experience. And the language totally sounds like some kind of Elvish.

Last days of a crowdfunding campaign for a gaming convention in Nigeria. I'd love this to work out to support board games and RPGs across the world! I am not connected to the organization or the funding, I am just in contact with one of the organizers and have seen interviews about the projects.

I am still editing the Brazil episode, so I honestly don't remember if this came up in the interviews - it sounds so familiar that I think it is actually in the next section I have to work on. 😀
The US wasn't the only country to pin an entire moral panic on tabletop RPGs. We spoke with players in Brazil and Spain about their own bookbound boogeymen.

I just played Amazing Tales with my kid and it got weird quickly. Also a bit squicky with all those references to needles and sharp points (kid got vaccinated last night and that bled into the game). I'd still say it's one of the best TTRPG for kids, because... (1/2)
