This is terrible news. Bobby Prince had a big hand in the creation of the soundtrack of video games in the 1990s. His music is an important feature in so many of my favorite games.

When school and library groups reach out asking for advice on running Shadowdark for kids, I always send this to them and suggest they review it before each session.

Yup. It's so tiring hearing that we (as teachers) MUST "prepare our students for an AI future" & "get on the AI train or else be left behind," & I'm aware that some professors are using AI for grading or creating AI lectures using avatars of themselves, but I think if "AI is the future" we're fucked

I am still trying to wrap my head around Legend in the Mist. I love the rustic fantasy setting, I like the character creation, the tag-based rules are very inventive, but I’m having trouble actually understanding how it all works. It may be a game I have to play first to understand. #ttrpg

In tactical RPGs we often see the "how do I optimize MY hero" discussion, which certainly happens with Draw Steel, but I have also seen a lot of people say stuff like, "If you really wanna optimize in DS, you should focus on the party not the individual." That was by design, and I'm glad it works.

2025 #ttrpg thoughts Daggerheart - Everything I dreamed it would be and excited about running a campaign next year. Draw Steel - I loved it even more than I expected. Played a one shot months ago and think about it every single day. Legend in the Mist - Yet to play but instantly charmed by it!
