Years ago, a friend asked me why billionaires want MORE money when they could never spend the tiniest fraction of what they have.
My answer is that they want immunity. The immunity to do literally any horrific they want without consequence.
Nothing I've seen since has changed my mind.

A Dungeon Game is here and it's free! (It's been both of those things for ages tbh)
Explore subterranean depths, face dragons, and discover what lurks beneath. It's classic dungeon crawling with modern design (i.e. it's good).

Dang... This article managed to hit all the recent points I've had cross my mind about MLB this off season, and a few I hadn't thought of but are worthwhile.

Hey, that's me! Inspired by my conversation with @newmadras.bsky.social, I dig into what it means to think about solo rpgs as "open-ended" or "close-ended" and what makes solo RPGs replayable. I end by considering what these ideas could mean for traditional, group RPGs.
I hope you check it out!!
