#RPGaDAY Day 30: Experience!
Experience teaches you not only how to improve but also how to be imperfect: as a player, GM, and designer. We're never going to make the perfect game, so embrace imperfection and enjoy the experience!

#RPGaDAY Day 28: Suspense!
Not a deliberate delay in posting this, but I guess it fits the theme! No greater suspense than the suspense of releasing a game and waiting to see how it's received. Luckily we have a whole community of people who are used to that feeling.

#RPGaDAY Day 27: Tactic!
What are your top tactics for keeping TTRPG players engaged and invested? Listen to them, learn from others, try new things and see how they go, be a fan of their characters, and remember that the best story is the one we all tell together!

#RPGaDAY Day 26: Nemesis!
What makes a good nemesis in a TTRPG? Danger, excitement, maaaaybe a little bit of sexiness? We like it when rivals and nemesis characters get to do terrifying and unexpected things in games, though NGL we also love a good redemption arc too.

#RPGaDAY Day 25: Challenge!
We love a good challenge round here: board games, card games, miniatures games, and even TTRPGs are all about challenge. Whether it's getting to grips with a new system or tackling real-world problems, there's no Challenge Rating too high for our community!

#RPGaDAY Day 24: Reveal!
Games can tell us loads about ourselves and the world around us. Especially games that educate us on aspects of life we've never experienced or considered. We especially love indie games for this, passion projects that present the experiences of one or a few people.

#RPGaDAY Day 23: Recent!
A recent thing we've been very glad to see is the sheer number of bundles raising money for charity. While it's troubling that so many people need help, it's great to see the community throwing their support behind important causes so enthusiastically!

#RPGaDAY Day 21: Unexpected!
Something that's awesome about TTRPGs is that there's always more to discover. Our community highlighted Pigsmoke (potatocubed.itch.io/pigsmoke) and Convictor Drive (www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/4...). What unexpected gems have you discovered?

#RPGaDAY Day 19: Destiny!
How do you handle prophecies in a game where everything can change based on player choices? Vague threats, promise cool stuff you want to put in, or just wing it? We also talked about the joy of playing characters *not* touched by destiny, just doing their best!

#RPGaDAY Day 18: Sign!
TTRPGs are allllll about communication, and this prompt got us thinking about the ways TTRPGs help us communicate and understand each other, from specific games like @hatchlingdm.itch.io's Isles trilogy to the moment you make your whole group laugh.

#RPGaDAY Day 17: Renew!
Going to quote our director @comradebubbles.bsky.social directly here on the power of TTRPGs to renew: "It’s also just a hobby that allows us to renew ourselves with every new character, a journey of self-discovery and improvement with every dice roll."

#RPGaDAY Day 16: Overcome!
This topic got people talking about player creativity - how systems help support players in bringing creative solutions to problems. And also about the things we have overcome to run and play games, and how it's been worth it.

#RPGaDAY Day 15: Deceive!
Apparently imposter syndrome is too easy an answer (boo!) but there's still plenty to talk about with this topic. 'Paranoia' is a great antidote to hidden information games because the whole point is that players should be suspicious of everything!

#RPGaDAY Day 14: Mystery!
What's your favourite way to use mystery in games? Our director Ryan likes to leave the time before the game as a mystery to be filled in during play, while our social media manager likes to pretend their players' cool ideas for solutions were what they meant all along!

#RPGaDAY Day 13: Darkness!
This topic got people talking about the capacity of games to help us through dark times, and explore things we struggle with. Organisations like @gametherapyuk.bsky.social are proponents for games as part of healing, and that's something we want to see more of.

#RPGaDAY Day 12: Path!
Stay on the path, or risk straying into the deep dark forest? Some games and groups take a more linear path through their stories, while others like to plunge off into mysterious and uncharted lands. Neither is wrong, so figure out what's right for your group.

#RPGaDAY Day 11: Flavour!
Flavour is more than just a marketing ploy in TTRPGs: it is often at the heart of why people engage with a game. Our community shouted out some examples of games with great flavour, and talked about how we would pick up games based on flavour alone!

#RPGaDAY Day 10: Origin!
Cue lots of fond reminiscing about how we got into gaming 🥰 Many of us have people and games we're grateful to for initiating us into TTRPGs. Whether through friends showing us how to play, societies and clubs, or just picking up a book and finding a whole world inside.
