The Mayor of Lamprey Skink has a great taste in wallpaper, I was obsessed. His taste in biscuits, less so. Everything was aggressively almondy.

The train has arrived! @lampreyskink.bsky.social's The Venture Below: An Unofficial Inspection of the Troika Underground

Such a shame that the Wetland Centre was closed when we visited Lamprey Skink last. Something about dredging. All the same, they’ve invited us back for the bog-diving contest next year. Very inclusive community.

Maps! Glorious maps! Choose a line, pick a direction, and commit. These are the player handout maps for the three lines of the Troika Underground. Hopefully the tunnels have been informed. #ttrpg #troikarpg #indiettrpg #tabletoprpg #weirdrpg #rpgcommunity #osr #indiegames #surrealrpg #tabletopgames

Officially this is Our Lady of Perpetual Sorrow, but all the Lamprey Skink locals call her The Sad One. She does look it, to be fair.

Showing off some of our Kickstarter stretch goals, starting with the tickets to ride. Each backer receives four (4) tickets. Share them, hoard them, or misplace them in a coat you no longer own. We’re not checking. How far will you get with one? #ttrpg #troikarpg #indiettrpg #tabletoprpg #osr

Delighted to have received our copy of Voidheart Symphony revised edition. The art; the shiny bits; the little pocket at the back for storing handouts and the like; the actual game. Nice. Huge congrats to Minerva McJanda, @soengery.bsky.social, @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social, and the whole team.

Thinking about the trip to Lamprey Skink on this lovely grey day. I was sure when I photographed this doorway it looked lush and green. Oh well.

Heading home to celebrate Christmas! Some very productive meetings with the Lamprey Skink Parish Council. They told us that the the tides were “more cooperative than usual,” which feels like a good omen. We'll be back once we've sorted through everything we learned on our trip.

Yule decorations are up all over Lamprey Skink! Hares in every shop window. One blinked at me. I assume that’s intentional.

Heading to a Yule party and somehow, despite carefully following the road signs, we’ve found ourselves back at the same place again. Lovely scenery, at least. Shame there are no phone maps for Lamprey Skink.

looking at rpg books and feeling like giles corey asking for more weight

Found this cool message in a bottle in the woods, but we were told to return it to exactly where it was. Difficult, because it was just... here? Shame we weren't allowed to read it.

A delightful surprise on our walk up to Spaniard’s Hill today; snow! The locals suggested we head indoors and avoid inhaling too much of it, but honestly, it was quite magical.

A lovely Yule day on Lamprey Skink! Lovely beach walk, even if it was unusually dark. Found some shells, some driftwood, and one object the Parish Council says we “didn’t see.”

Absolute delight when crowdfunding rewards come in. Very interesting game, hope I get a chance to inflict cruel death games on my nearest and dearest this yuletide season. Big thanks to Double Summon for putting this together and getting it to the UK weirdly quickly @continuityand.bsky.social

Well folks, that's the end of the Kickstarter campaign. We're fully funded, and absolutely delighted by the response. Can't wait to see you in the Underground, hope you get lost in it as much as we do. No, really. Send help. #troikarpg #ttrpg #indiettrpg #tabletoprpg #indiegames #crowdfunding
