You’ve just died. The 6th picture in your phone gallery is what killed you.

It's hard to overstate Meguey and Vincent's contribution to the Tabletop RPG hobby through Apocalypse World.

So many TTRPG creators were inspired to make their own #PbtA game, often pushing game design even further.

Here's a chance to thank them.

www.kickstarter.com/projects/lum... #ttrpg
Screenshot of the Apocalypse World 3rd edition's PbtA Creator Pay-It-Back pledge level at $150. It states: "As you know, we don't ask PbtA creators for any royalties or licensing fees. If you've published a successful PbtA game or product of your own, please consider backing at this level! It's an absolutely voluntary way to show your appreciation and support."

Done.

Just as an FYI for everyone, the ticket and automated calendar invite state Saturday but the Friday Night event is obvious on Friday night. 😅

Thanks, Bunnyladame for this enthusiastic review of Magic of Inventorying. ♥️

The current edition is still available via Itchio while a new much improved edition is headed to Kickstarter soon.
www.kickstarter.com/projects/rol...
Screenshot of an Itchio review by Bunnyladame stating: I honestly didn't expect this to be such a fabulous exercise in collaborative storytelling, but I had more fun and more opportunities for on-the-fly creativity with this game than I have in most other TTRPGs. Very easy to pick up as you go even if you have no real TTRPG experience without sacrificing depth or fun. Run it with friends or (as a former gamedev) if you're a game designer, I HIGHLY recommend picking this up for a team activity that'll be not just entertaining but also a great way to keep individual and group narrative skills sharp! #TTRPG #MagicOfInventorying

I rode a couple in the Netherlands and Belgium. They're a great capacity boon, provided they have an adequate step-free access provision.

Very much so.

It was quite timely as I'm currently reading Graal Théâtre by Florence Delay and Jacques Roubaud.

It's a generous series of theatre plays collecting "exhaustively" Arthurian legends.

It appears there's another remake.

The poster leaves me a bit sceptical.

Me listening, recognising the classic French movie Le Salaire de la Peur, before @rosspayton.bsky.social points out that The Sorcerer is its US remake.

Thanks Ross. ;)

This political cartoon reminded me of the promotional art for Pablo Larraín "El Conde".

This chilean dark comedy is available via Netflix (still on my watchlist).

It portrays Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet as a 250-year-old vampire seeking death.
