If you’re like me, you’re busy, your broke, and you want to make sure the cheap game on your wish list is worth your time and money. Don’t worry – I’m here to help.
Author – B. Everett Dutton Where to Buy – https://frogappreciator.itch.io/blood-knight-gaius I am reviewing a vampire-based adventure today so, per the rules and regulations governing the Hack Writers of America (of which I am a proud, card-carrying member), I am legally required to make the following “jokes”. The Martial Cult of Blood Knight Gaius (Martial Cult) […]
The cold October air burned Addie’s lungs as she ran through the corn maze, her blood-filled shoes squelching with every frantic step. They were all dead. And she was next. She knew this was a fucking stupid idea. She told them all she didn’t want to do it. Sure, the legends were probably bullshit but…what […]
Author – Marn S. (@corpserevivers) Where to Buy – https://marns.itch.io/alone-with-the-killer A hack of Alone Among the Stars, Alone With the Killer takes you out of the dark loneliness of space and plops you at the tail end of a slasher film. After all, who the hell wants to play through the start of a horror […]
Author: Urania Games (@PercyPropa) Where to Buy: https://urania-games.itch.io/end-of-the-line You we involved in a terrible tragedy that killed a lot of innocent people. Was it a train derailment? Massive fire? Flood? It doesn’t matter. What does matter is that Death is pissed you escaped the culling and now you’re going to have to look over your […]
Publisher – The Afterthought Committee (@KingQyote) Where to Buy – https://afterthought-committee.itch.io/cast-away I have always loved survival horror. I’m talking anything from mundane stuff like shipwrecks and plane crashes to more exotic things like zombie apocalypses and alien invasions. It all seems so exciting! Gone are the trappings of a broken society! Survivors persist based on […]
Publisher: AbyssalBrews (@AbyssalBrews) Where to Buy: https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/368648/Campfire–An-Elegant-Travel-System Theoretically, 5E D&D is comprised of three pillars: one for exploration, one for combat, and one for social interaction. In practice, this is a poor analogy. It’s more like 5E is supported by one load-bearing wall (combat) while the other walls of social interaction and exploration can be […]
Publisher: Goblin Archives (@goblin_archives) Where to Buy: https://www.exaltedfuneral.com/products/liminal-horror-pdf Our fans know I’m an admirer of Into the Odd and Knave, having done reviews and/or actual plays of each. When I heard that someone put out their own game combining elements from these amazing games, I was beyond excited. But this isn’t a review of Yochai […]
Publisher: Planet X Games (@PlanetXGamesCo) Where to Buy: https://tinyurl.com/5fr452yn If Mörk Borg takes its inspiration from black metal, Planet X game’s OSR zine The Phylactery #1 (TP1) is 100% thrash metal to its core. As I type this I realize that comparison is probably only useful to a handful of you but…it’s too perfect. Sorry. […]
Publisher: Magpie Games (@MagpieOfficial) Where to Buy: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/magpiegames/avatar-legends-the-roleplaying-game I remember watching Avatar: The Last Airbender when it first came out and being just…blown away. A kids show telling stories with such pathos and humanity was something I hadn’t seen before. I mean, that seen with Uncle Iroh (you know the one) still makes me cry. […]
Author – Doug Levandowski (@DougLevandowski) & Matt Gaby Where to Buy – https://douglevandowski.itch.io/arcane-zoo Back in February I reviewed Arcane Zoo and, while I enjoyed it, there was one thing that I didn’t like. You can read the past review here if you are curious but, to summarize, the game featured some sentient creatures in captivity which […]
