Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 9hThat's an interesting take, given that the ruleset is fairly light. I guess the same simple rules that "get out of the way" can also have the problem of not being fun enough to actually interact with and end up, as you say, just tolerated. Were there any particular pain points? 220
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 9hAlso agree that not all games have to be endlessly replayable! 010
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 9hI very much get that, I also don't know how far I could stretch such a rules-light, high-concept game. At some point the concept itself will probably start to feel a bit played out. Not sure yet, and I haven't reached that point by far, but I can see where you're coming from. 120
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 9hYou touch on a bunch of points I am feeling as well, although I'm looking at the game from a player lens. Also excited for a sci-fi Bastionland although I feel I still need to spend a bunch more time to get acquainted with this family of games as a whole. But yeah, Cairn rocks 😄 010
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 9hI'm waiting to properly sink my teeth into the game, maybe finish this mini-campaign before I start babbling about it 😄 Into the Odd looks very cool as well, although I haven't properly gone through it yet. Hope you get a chance to take it for a drive soon! 020
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I recently started playing in a Mythic Bastionland campaign, and while I of course have ✨opinions✨, I'm a goddamn sucker for this art style and the modular sleek writing. Have any of you #ttrpg folks played any Bastionland / Into the Odd games? What did you think? 690

Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 02/10/2026#ttrpg folks, my friend @jenteyg.bsky.social recently came up with two small art packs full of odd maps and funky monsters. Just looking at them is getting my creative gears turning! Definitely worth a look if you're into the broad spectrum between weird fiction and horror 💀 Links below: 242

Du coup, je propose un sorte de fil thématique ouvert à toutes et tous. Thème du jour : l'Odyssée On en parle beaucoup grâce au ciné, vous avez quoi comme jeux ? 12219
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 01/08/2026It somehow manages to tick both "this makes absolute sense, I'm surprised nobody made it earlier" and "how the fuck did they think about this". The execution is also top-notch, art and writing and rules and everything, I can't really poke any holes in it. Beautiful pick! 020
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 01/08/2026I love @fkth.bsky.social's pick for this year's ENNIEs! I first heard of Walton and Adcox's Tacklebox through a video by @itsquinns.bsky.social and this little thing has been so interesting. Definitely something to keep in mind for any people even marginally interested in #ttrpg stuff 🐟 171

Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 04/07/2026Today I happened to see that a #ttrpg I wrote was in an itch collection called "I Like This Fun Thing" and I'd just like the person that put it there to know that it made my evening ❤️ 040
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 26/06/2026The cover art, as well as all the interior art and most of the layout, is by the inimitable @jenteyg.bsky.social ❤️ 020
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 26/06/2026Holding my own words in print is always an unreal experience. My small #ttrpg Black Currents is now published in English!

Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Oh no no, it's working in favor of my caffeine consumption. Not in my favor. More. Much much more. 110
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Incidentally, Ornamental Women looks cool af. Excellent cover art too! 110
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 10/06/2026There's a delicate balance, I think. We can't do without marketing at all, but we don't want to stoop too low. The one thing we creators can do that a) helps spread our work around b) helps fuck capitalism c) is all around good is lift each other up and talk about each other's work 110

Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 10/06/2026I very much agree (fuck capitalism), although there's another side to this story: I don't *want* to market my games, and I certainly don't plan to get rich off of them. But I do feel all warm inside when people interact with them and tell me their opinions, and that requires marketing. 110
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 10/06/2026Getting an ice cream machine and experimenting with coffee in ice cream is doing *wonders* for my caffeine consumption ✨ 270

Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 18/05/2026This is a good idea, I'll just have to find the silver lining and not define too much 😄 010
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Agreed on the collaboration! It does feel important to strike a good middle ground between total freedom and a reasonable time frame, so your idea to preroll natures might be just the thing ✨ 010
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 18/05/2026Oooh I had no idea about this. I'll check it out, thanks! 010
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 17/05/2026In a regular home game I'd definitely go for full improv, but here I'm wondering if I should write something in advance. All opinions welcome! (4/4) 210
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 17/05/2026...sure whether I should have a general storyline in mind or just a vibe. I want us to come out of it having said something meaningful, and we only have a few hours to do it. (3/4) 100
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 17/05/2026So far I'm thinking: - guided, so that I can manage the pace and flow of the story - full character creation because that's what makes the game personal and I'm willing to invest some of our time on that - relatively random locations? Wanderhome is beautiful for improvisation, but I'm not... (2/4) 110
Sotiris (he/him) @sotirispitelis.bsky.social · 17/05/2026#ttrpg folks, does anyone have advice for running @jdragsky.bsky.social's Wanderhome in a public oneshot setting? I'll run a session in a political communal space and I'd love some pointers to keep the game free and open-ended, but still tight enough to have a satisfying, complete story. (1/4) 2111
