Episode 2 of No Anthem, our weird Apocalypse World game comes out today (Episode 3 for patrons!)

We are finally back. Season 3! This is the story of the fall -- and fall again -- of a nation.

We're playing Apocalypse World: Burned Over by @megueyb.bsky.social and @lumpley.bsky.social.

Zoheb here, using our AUDIENCE to spread the word that I'm getting my first TTRPG published.

Please get in on this action with Zine Club, and spread the word. The game means a lot to me, and I've had the privilege of working with really lovely and talented people to make words into game.
Friends! My debut game is coming out. Midnight in a Perfect World is a roleplaying game about a dinner party on the anniversary of a revolution. Count down to midnight and dine with ghosts.

You can get it alongside Twilight Country by @fortofnovelty.bsky.social on plusoneexp.com/pages/rpg-zi...
Our brand new drops for #RPGZineClun this month are Twilight Country by @fortofnovelty.bsky.social (our Adventure title) and Midnight in a Perfect World by @zohebmashiur.bsky.social (our Story title).

These are available first through Zine Club!

Our talented Zine Fiend @carrion-comfort.com brought in Zoheb of @desperateattune.bsky.social's game Midnight in Perfect World for this month's Zine Club & it is a tremendous game.

Zoheb has been an amazing creator to work with & I can wait for folks to hold this game.
