Another week, another Wednesday! I haven’t been playing many games recently, though I did just try Horrified, a co-op monster-hunting board game. It was a lot of fun! The rules seem complex at first, but once you get into the groove of things it’s a lot of fun with flexible difficulty.

Anyway, here’s the gaming news this week. (more…)

I expect I’ll be spending much of my September amongst my ghostly bear friends—here’s hoping a nice start to autumn for you all, too.
Here’s this week’s gaming news. (more…)

Dungeons & Dragons was not my first tabletop RPG. That honor belongs to the aptly named Supernatural Role Playing Game which is, you guessed it, an RPG based on the hit CW show Supernatural. But I’ve played way more D&D than any other TTRPG despite coming to it later, and despite knowing that there are games out there that do some of D&D‘s core features better. (more…)
