Well, I'd like to say it's been a productive month of some solid #ttrpg #blogging but the truth is, ironically considering the one post I did put out, I've been a bit burnt out and I've stepped back for a few weeks to take a break.

Also my laptop died. Which was a sad story 😭

Have you ever played #Nemesis? I'm a big fan of the original, and I finally got to play it's second sequel; Nemesis #Retaliation, the other weekend.

These are my first thoughts!

#LiesByOmission is an investigative #horror #TTRPG based on 1970s Italian #Giallo cinema.

If you like the niche and prefer your games to have a #narrative story driven focus, it could well be the one for you!

Their crowdfund is active now, check out my first look below if you fancy a read 🇮🇹👺

I got a PDF copy of #Huckleberry RPG to pick through and review before the #Backerkit launches today!

It's folkloric horror cowboy action, but did it leave me fanning my revolvers under the noon sun, or with a snake in my boot?

Clue: "Pyow! Pyow! Pyow! Pyow!"

What a cracking little #sandbox module for #PirateBorg!

I had such a great time reading through #RavagedByStorms thanks to @der-ajz.bsky.social for sharing it with me.

Still time to grab it on #Kickstarter!

Can't wait to get this first look for #RavagedByStorms for #PirateBorg by @der-ajz.bsky.social out in the next day or so.

It's looking like a nifty little sandbox adventure, and there's still time to catch it on the Kickstarter 😎
