We snuck one last episode into March yesterday playing Dick Wizards by Wyrd Wolf Entertainment! My wife Lynn bought me the special edition zine so I had her play an apprentice wizard detective investigating Lovecraftian crime in Providence RI! It's classic Lynnsanity, hope you enjoy!

Come hang out on the @dmsafterdark.bsky.social Twitch stream tonight as I'll be running a one-shot of Legends of Akeroth by @crossedpaths.co.uk! Its an homage to the golden era of SNES JRPGs I grew up on and I hope I came up with a fun one-shot to highlight the system!

Design Diaries episode 2 is out covering character creation in Gardens of Rust. I couldn't decide between two alternate history versions of me, so I made them both! Hope you're excited to think about characters you'd make for a post-catastrophe game. Tell me your concepts and let's make them!

This bundle just hit $500k but there's a lot of time left to make it even bigger! Reason # 1,440 to get this bundle is my game MECH, do it because MN is setting the standard for how to respond to this BS and those affected will need help.

Antique only, though, to get that good "they don't make 'em like they used to" bonk sound.

Ooh this one is exciting. MIRU was one of the first solo games I played and @hinokodo.com has SMASHED it with the physical rewards for MIIIRU. This book is beautiful, the layout is so good, and the Hex Kit is insane! I can see myself using this for LOTS of games.

Do I revive the series for book 3?!
