And our other Apocalypse Keys game with @temporalhiccup.bsky.social.
I think all three of these are among my favorite episodes, in large part because of how you hear the mystery click into place, and you hear the grasping of "Okay, I see the big picture."

In #Absolum, I freed this chicken from captivity in one of the prisons of Jaroba. It followed me all the way to the final boss, Azra, the Sun King. It spent the entire fight being randomly targeted, but chickens are invincible in this game, so instead it was in a constant state of terror.

Regular reminder that if you want to talk about RPGs on Youtube, I’m running an indie RPG Youtuber mentorship over on the @chimerahearts.com’s Discord!
one thing I'd really like to see more of in TTRPG scenes is critics with specific and well-known tastes who review projects outside their own circles anyways. both because critics should strive to understand their own preferences, and because I want sharp critiques from non-target audiences

Adler makes a point: Any game excludes people. Every decision excludes people. The impulse is "exclude no one" but this is wrong, impossible. The question you *should* ask is: Is this game excluding *the same people who every game tends to exclude*? *That* would be wrong.

i reference Dream Askew / Dream Apart SO frequently when editing, giving design feedback, etc. & it's such a shame how few have played it relative to other indie games. it's such a groundbreaking set of systems & is upstream of basically every narrative TTRPG since it released. you GOTTA know it.

i think a lot of conversations about whether or not a game "is safe" would be more productively shaped by:
- how risky is this game
- are players aware of and consenting to this risk
- what are tools players can use to mitigate risk

fundamentally, i come from the assumption that any game can be played safely, that any kind of bleed can be managed at the right table, and that we shouldn't be making games for the least safe, least discursive tables.
