DID YOU KNOW: VOID 1680 AM has a 100% free expansion called "Voices in the Void," which makes the strangers who call into your show... stranger.

And hot off the presses, @jordannwitt.bsky.social turned out a new cover just for that PDF.

Grab it here, under "Download demo"! bannerless.games/voidam

After a pause, we are once again accepting pitches for games.
If you've designed a TTRPG (especially one built on PbtA, Forged in the Dark, or Fate) that's near-complete, you can find details about how to pitch us (and the services we provide) here:

Don't have two year long campaigns end in a 28 hour window unless you too, like me, want to be in tears about how much you love your players and the stories you all collaborated on.

slugblaster's epilogue rules give easy mechanics to something I hadn't ever really considered but oft wanted in systems - a framework for ending the game in a way that feels satisfying.

Yes we did just finish our year long campaign and YES I'M FEELING FEELINGS ABOUT IT.

the absolute carnal whiplash between reading eat the reich and cryptid creeks is what I love about this #ttrpg hobby tbh

picked up cryptid creeks by @hatchlingdm.itch.io and just continually impressed with the work, the vibe, and the follow through on inspiration. I knew I needed to put it in my list to run, but now I need to push it FAR up my list to play SOONER.

Harvest is a "beautiful cursed woodcut of a game" and Rascal writer Thomas Manuel's game of the year. GMless diceless period folk horror, it revolves around a golden paradise off Britain's coast preserved by generational ritual sacrifice, and which you'll choose: die for the island, or kill for it.
