Trying something new.

It's annoying when you see a cool game jam and there's only 3 days to finish it! So I'm working on a monthly Game Jam Alert to make it easier to keep up to date

In the House of Pluto by Creative Wronging An upscale Heist for Cairn 2e

Still reading Appendix N games.

@creativewronging.bsky.social has made an excellent example of a short heist adventure. The cover stories for how the players are getting into the party is brilliant. I love how it creates a guaranteed tension throughout the game.
