Hey I have almost finished my zine for my #TTRPG it’s a one page game expanded to a 16 page illustrated zine. For those with more experience is it worth doing a small kickstarter?

Heart Tree map for the first full adventure in my new campaign. This arc is inspired by @naominovik.bsky.social ‘s wonderful book Uprooted. The descriptions of the world and magic in that book are incredible. Hopefully this adventure does it some justice.

A homebrew dungeon I drew and wrote for my Dungeons of Drakkenheim game. Having a blast running this. An amazing campaign written by @dungeondudes.bsky.social

2nd session using dungeon-turns and can confirm it wasn’t a one off. They have made running dungeons way more fun, better paced and more dynamic. Respect your elders, I guess 😂 #dnd #ttrpg #osr #dungeon #dungeoncrawl

I have been working away on the zine version of my games Sorts. A letter tile, spell casting rpg This game was formerly called SPELLZ! But someone made me aware of a game called Spell: The RPG which is very similar. I reached out to its creator @whimsymachine.bsky.social who was really encouraging

I recently ran a dungeon crawl actually using dungeon turns and damn are the grognards (I say this affectionately) onto something. I always worried it would slow things down and make it feel restrictive but damn was I wrong. It really helps pace and helps me run more dynamically. #dungeon #osr

The player characters and NPCs and map I drew for a new campaign, Stone’s Rest. A fantasy campaign that takes place in a post apocalypse, the players are all from a small walled village that no one has left in generations. Why did the world fall? Who were the before-folk? What’s really out there?

With all the mini-dungeons part of drawing them is i don’t pencil, they’re a sort of draw as I go kind of thing. They are also drawn without a writing, that will come later hopefully in the zine. #ttrpg #indittrpg #dnd #dungeon #dungeonmap #dungeonmap

Here is another batch of mini-dungeons. These are 6x10cm or 2.5x4inches. Drawn with a uni-ball eye pen and markers, hoping to have a zine out soon. All hand drawn. #dungeon #dnd #dungeonmaps #battlemaps #ttrpg

Room Runners is a FREE One-Page TTRPG where players take turns GMing the rooms of an everchanging dungeon. You need to get through as many rooms as there are players, to get the treasure, then get back through a different bunch of rooms. So everyone at the table runs 2 rooms… if you survive!

This die has been the best tool I have added to my GM kit. I use it in any system I play. Anytime a player asks a question about something I didn’t plan. I usually have the player themselves roll it. It has created some wonderful moments. I really recomend adding it to your kit. #gmadvice #gmtools

Had so much fun making my one-page letter-tile TTRPG SPELLZ! Im starting to note out ideas for another letter-tile game. The general idea is a GM-les game where players take turns describing encounters with the letter tiles as a sort of oracle. Play SPELLZ! FREE jaketoothandnail.com/spellz

Ran a play-test tonight, for the latest rule set of SPELLZ! with an awesome group of mates, made up of TTRPG long timers and newbies too A few minor tweaks. But I think it’s pretty much there after that. Will write the updates and have the latest version available on my website soon And it’s FREE!

Having a read through Skate Wizards, this is so rad, super fun. Definitely going to try and run a game I think my group would enjoy it. @michaelchsiung.bsky.social and @lootthebody.bsky.social have made something really special here. These permanent spells that every skate wizard has are awesome

@stephendewey.bsky.social Just want to let you know that 10 candles is one of my fave rules light games. It does such an amazing job of creating an amazing atmosphere for horror role playing! A hard thing to do.

Personal challenge: to make a one page TTRPG where the player decides if they succeed or fail when they take an action. I think it would use cards, some being successes or failures. So the hand you are dealt is random but the player chooses what card to play when the time comes. Might be fun?

SPELLZ! is a one page, letter tile, TTRPG for silly hijinks and creative spell casting. No spell slots to track, no individual spell rules. Just the letters you draw and the words you can make.
