Looking for a new adventure TTRPG to try?

WYRM is here. Rules-lite, OSR inspired play, with a Gila twist.

Grab the core rules, starter adventure, and starting sandbox hexcrawl, all PWYW.

Plus it has a killer cover, with more art coming.

Aliens invaded and your humans are gone. What dogs do you trust to go find them with?

Which single ttrpg would you recommend that people must read in 2026.

If I could bring any historical figure to the present, I'd make Dante Aligheri spend 5 hours in the Newark airport at Christmastime

My hot take after 15 hours with Arc Raiders: this game is 11/10 gorgeous... During half of the weather patterns.

*Town hall normam Rockwell guy* I think devs shouldn't make modes where the game looks bad.

I am absolutely gobsmacked at the narrative design of Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2. The game has made the open-world open-character design world that Bethesda has always promised, but never fully achieved.

Last night I, played in an awesome demo of Westward Bound, the expansion of The Last Caravan #ttrpg, with @tedbushman.bsky.social. Our group of several dogs (and a cat) set off to find our owners, which led us to a massive landfill, a pack of surprisingly erudite wolves, and humans up to no good.
