When the Expo Hall closes, come down to Hall C to buy the freshest indie games!!

“More even than last year, these games seem like they’re pushing boundaries. They capture the spirit of what it means to be ‘indie.‘“ @danthurot.bsky.social
Pax Unplugged is right around the corner!!

Looking back at all the IGNM coverage—I’m so proud and impressed at how much our community came together to promote these awesome indie works!

Enjoying a lazy Saturday as PAXU scrolls by in my feed, smiling at all the fun everyone is having as I cook a leisurely breakfast.
Spending my morning thinking about what I might get played at my next game night.

Maybe Level 7 Omega Protocol. Maybe Mind MGMT. Played neither to date.

Any thoughts?
My special announcement to all of you following me here.

A Year Of Living With My Library.

I am challenging myself for 2026 to play only titles I already own. No new purchases. I hope you're as excited to follow along with me as I am to kick this thing off! #boardgames
While most of us are headed to PAX, some are staying behind, taking the chance to be more reflective on the gaming hobby and how it affects us.

Coming from someone who loves Cyberpunk RED and cyberpunk as a genre, I can say this game is an absolute blast to play! It's got so much smart design in it, letting you get to all the good stuff with a minimum of fuss.
CYB+PNK: Augmented by @mythworks.bsky.social is a small package that managed to create some of the best tabletop gaming moments we’ve had. Tons of flavor and a great introduction to many ttrpg game mechanics, wrapped up in a cyberpunk setting. Our review:

Went to the Indie Games Night Market last year and highly recommend it. If you're going to PAXU, be sure to go extra early and get in line. These games are hand crafted and limited in quantity, so leave yourself the best chance of nabbing one by getting a good spot in line!

I (finally) wrote a thing! Been a crazy last half a year for me, but that doesn't mean you should sleep on this game if you've been looking for a #ttrpg like this.
Have you ever wanted to play in a high octane, 90s action flick adventure? Do you crave car chases, epic battles, and a plethora of explosions? Adam may have found just the game for you. Our review of the Outgunned #ttrpg by Free League Publishing:

This game has been my new obsession since its release last week.

Considering Wyatt's already got an article written, it sounds like it's hit him pretty hard too.

Everyone seems abuzz about Arc Raiders. This is part of the reason why.
What happens when you take the extraction shooter genre, infamous for PvP violence, and encourage people to play nice?

Our thoughts on ARC Raiders, and the amazing stories it lets you tell with complete strangers.
