Grimwild, from @odditypress.com, evokes medieval fantasy while catering to groups who want to draw more narrative from the party itself. "Designer J.D. Maxwell has produced clever mechanics that reward cooperation and a little friendly bickering with your fellow adventurers."

The Wild Frontier of Venture, my weird west game of roaming around a small, rugged world as agents, marshals, outlaws, or mystics is now live on Backerkit.

The game is Made with Moxie, the same system that powers Grimwild.
