With a new baby and toddler, The Odyssey (2026) may be the last movie I'll see for a while, but I was still able to glean (or couldn't avoid gleaning) a few lessons from it for TTRPGs #osr #ttrpg

What The Odyssey (2026) Can Teach Us About Running TTRPGs — Prismatic Wasteland
Every movie has lessons for running your game if you are sufficiently TTRPG-brain-poisoned, but Nolan’s The Odyssey (2026) has more than usual.

My “all good sci-fi starts with a meal and ends on a beach” theory seems to have struck a chord with listeners. I’ve made a 1-page sci-fi game that is nothing but meals and beaches. It’s goes as hard as I can make a game this small. half-apress.itch.io/6-meals-in-s...
You are an astronaut. Whatever anyone told you as a kid you couldn’t do, you always succeed at. To succeed at any other action, you must take a drink of water. Fill a glass to the top, now. When the glass is empty you die.

Can anyone recommend some TTRPG blog reviewers? I wrote a #mothershiprpg module last year called CRYO-SIQ that I still enjoy running. I'd love to try and send out some review copies and get more people talking about it.
