If you haven't grabbed this yet, you're still in time! There are so many awesome solo RPGs in here, including my own game Ksejra, a story generation game about geological erosion and loss.

It's #SoloSeptember! If you were interested in trying out a solo #TTRPG inspired by Malta, I have a few! Għosfor is a solo lyric game about birds, hunting, and remembering the dead where you make a funerary memorial card for a bird shot down by hunters. ghargremxul.mt/games/ghosfor

The results are in for the 2026 edition of #inkjam, and I'm super excited to see that my game Taħt il-Mewġ placed 2nd! I'm really happy that people enjoyed it, and I hope their search for Atlantis was successful! Try out the game here. Maltese version is still in progress! itch.io/jam/inkjam-2...

The things someone creates are a part of their embodiment in the world. You can't understand Mary Oliver by reading just one poem, or Shakespeare by reading just one sonnet. The poems challenge each other. They bolster and inform each other. The same is true of the games by a designer.

I may have both underestimated the amount of time this idea would take to make for this game jam, as well as overestimated how available I would be...

A little reminder to leave reviews & recommendations for the TTRPGs you love. ❤️ It helps creators get discovered, gives other gamers a reason to check out their work, and costs you absolutely nothing. A few words can make a HUGE difference to an indie creator. ✨

It's the first time I've physically printed out one of the games I made! Incidentally, this is also a sneak peek of an upcoming release. Now, the question is, A3 or A4?

The name of the zine is Misjubin, and the description states "A collection of lyric games inspired by Maltese archaeological artefacts." From left to right, there's a version printed on A3 in Maltese, a version printed on A4 in Maltese, a version printed on A3 in English, and a version printed on A4 in English.

Attention #TTRPG community: If you found an indie game or supplement you like, take a moment to tell the creator on social media. Unlike big companies, indie devs WILL notice and often greatly appreciate you taking the time to reach out. Sometimes it's the only way we know anyone likes our stuff!
