I’m shockingly, somehow actually making some decent progress on this book. What should I read next, Bluesky denizens?
‘Great Expectations’ by Charles Dickens, about 2/3 of the way through. Photographed on public transport alongside a ‘Variant’ bookmark. And yes, I wear Doc Martens. What of it??

Sometimes playtests can be as infuriating as they are enlightening. Today I realised that one small tweak had fixed a huge problem with my game, only to potentially create a new one just as bad… #gamedesign #ttrpgdesign #indierpg

My partner and I have been watching perhaps way too much #Columbo lately, and the way my mind works, I obviously have to now turn it into a #TTRPG. I think It’ll have to be some variation on the #CarvedFromBrindlewood system by Jason Cordova, but beyond that…

I’ve never played this #TTRPG, but I have played a different TTRPG where I roleplayed as a character playing this TTRPG. It was great fun— if my character had one critique though it was that the game didn’t take a strong stance on the nature of the soul. sandypuggames.itch.io/monster-care...

After I stranded my #DnD group in the Shadowfell, they concocted a plan to use a magic item to start opening portals to random dimensions. I then spent 30 seconds bashing together a random table of portal destinations... Guess which one they ended up jumping through.

Random Question for the skies: What’s a #TTRPG you’ve played with a conflict-resolution minigame that WASN’T designed with violence in mind? Perhaps it’s designed instead to emulate a sporting match, a beauty contest or a debate. How well did it work?

Has anybody tried the #Genesys #TTRPG? Loved it? Hated it? Wished they'd known more before playing it? Aside from having a shockingly good aesthetic for a so-called 'generic' RPG, I'm admittedly more than a little curious about its controversial dice system...
