Farawell to Arms REDUX by @rivetheadgames.bsky.social & @astrolich.bsky.social
If you're into anti-war games that'll throw you into the mud and stomp on the myth of glorious conflicts, you can't do better than this!
There are no heroes, only tragic endings.
A hardcover of Farawell to Arms REDUX thrown into dirt. The black and blue cover (by Johan Nohr) shows an undead solider clenching a rifle. The title is your favorite hand-drawn, black-metal fare.

Ready for magical Mausritter adventures set in an old-growth forest? Echoing the themes of classic folklore and fairy-tales, @josiahmoore.bsky.social's riso-printed Tiny Fables confronts players with the narrow distinction between warmth and darkness, cruelty and whimsy, and danger versus reward.
tiny fables zine. The cover features an illustration of a musical forest procession of mice, a hedgehog, a chicken, and a turtle. The border is made up of two trees that frame the cover. Everything is black and white, except the green leaves, the pink flowers on the bottom of the illustration, and the pink sun at the top. Open pages that reveal a two column layout on the left, with an illustration of mice on a hardback book that's placed on some flowers. One mouse is writing with a quill pen, one is turning a leaf, one is striking an instrument, one is aiming with a bow and arrow, and one is casting a spell on a broom. Behind it all is a startled chicken on one side, and an interested fox on the other. The right side of the page features some bullet points and a table. There are item card sheets in the top left and the bottom right corners of the photo.
