Got the Greyhound bus back to NYC from #PAXEast in Boston. A 20-something guy and girl ended up sitting next to each other and struck up a convo about how they'd both been to PAX (their first!) and chatted the entire way home, 4 hours straight. Games bring people together, and I love it.

Delighted to see homegrown TTRPGs on the shelves in Boston! Thanks @rolistespod.itch.io and jameswallis.bsky.social for representing the euro contingent at #PAXEast 🙌

Here's some cool stuff I've seen at #PAXEast so far:
Tag Team, an auto-battler with a mechanic where you can only add to your deck between rounds, not re-order it. Added a cool memory strategy element trying (and in my case, failing) to disrupt my opponent's moves! Find it in First Look!

This was such an impactful 90 minutes. There were actual tears. Had to spend the rest of Sunday recovering but it was well worth it!
Thank you @fkth.bsky.social, @jemalexander.bsky.social, and @chriswilsonart.bsky.social for braving our collective teenage angst with me!

Got to run #AliceIsMissing for the first time as a facilitator for @jemalexander.bsky.social and friends today. Damn. What a great game. Haven’t stopped listening to the soundtrack all day. #rpg

This was so good! 🤩 I had an amazing time with Fiona, @chriswilsonart.bsky.social and @clairepurcell.bsky.social. Was not prepared for how intense this experience was going to be. A+++ would miss Alice again.

A #RosewoodAbbey reprint is coming!
Order your copy NOW for $25.

Costs are slightly down thanks to the combination of the English and new Italian edition.
Rather than pocket the difference, I thought y'all would like a price reduction.

Playing in my first Mothership campaign and my trinket (rolled randomly) is a calendar of Alien pin-up art. In my mind, every page features Thane from Mass Effect in a uniquely provocative pose.

I know all fashion comes back around but did this one REALLY need a resurrection? As seen in Vogue's '7 Trouser Trends Set to Soar in 2025' feature 🥲

Is there an *actually* good gift you can get for a 6-month-old? Or are they basically potatoes who'd be happy with a ball of tin foil?

I def panicked and forgot some of my DM notes for this one (which is rare for me) but thanks for showing up and showing out in numbers to the DQ x Acq Inc liveshow. Also: holy smokes what a gorgeous group of players.

The Critical Role team always seems to pick up on our game's unhinged vibe, whether we explicitly request it or not. 10/10 no notes.
We sponsored the latest episode of @criticalrole.bsky.social.
They asked us if they could all laugh at @samriegel.bsky.social in French while he described Fablecraft, and that just made good sense to us... so we said, "cool."
We don't regret it at all.

#PAXUnplugged ✅ done! Thanks to everyone who stopped by to learn about @fablecraft.bsky.social, it was such a joy to be surrounded by people who love games as much as we do!
