We're ridiculously pleased with what we achieved with "A Warm and Pleasant Hum." A delightfully tense and creepy two part actual play with an incredible cast of performers. Thoroughly recommend taking the time to watch this fantastic AP. youtube.com/playlist?lis...

"The Time We Honk" A goose. A gander. One barn door separates their entire worlds. In the days to come, one of them will become sicker, until the worst finally comes. This duet game with @nuffofabby.bsky.social & @aghostofeli.bsky.social launches 19th November at 7pm GMT. Mark your diaries!

To be very clear, The Gauntlet is an unabashedly queer-centric publisher, our games put themes of queerness and gender front and center, and our founder and operator (me) is a gay POC. Our values are in every single page of our games.

Broadcasting now! Mastiff-sized bees just showed up, so things are going swimmingly for our treasure hunters.

The hum grows more and more oppressive. Will it make you lose your mind? Find out as Part 2 of "A Warm and Pleasant Hum" streams LIVE right now! www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Tul...

We return to the Humming Wood this evening! Will our treasure hunters dine on royal jelly, or will the forest take them before they get the chance? Or worse, will they turn on each other in a moment of madness? Find out from 7pm GMT tonight. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Tul...

This is happening this evening! I occasionally see clips like this and do not remember it at all, so I can only assume the whole thing was a fever dream. Matt, Megan and Kash are amazing and you do not want to miss it!

It's coming from where now?! Part 2 of A Warm and Pleasant Hum drops tomorrow at 7pm GMT, and it all goes south very quickly. Watch along at youtube.com/@whohurtyouap

"Whatever happens, you do not get your arm back!" Yeah, so shit gets weird in Part 2 of "A Warm and Pleasant Hum", which releases on 6th November at 7pm GMT. Watch Part 1 now to catch up at www.youtube.com/@whohurtyouap

This evening I had the pleasure of watching the premiere of part one of an AP I was fortunate enough to be a part of earlier this year, and what a joy it was to experience again. I love being reminded how awesome the TTRPG community is and of the many wonderful stories we create together.

Can I just say. That watching actual live human beings. Play a scenario that I wrote. Never stops being cool. (Odd line lengths and punctuation choices unrelated)

It's happening now! Like... right now! Unless you're reading this in the future, in case: if the apocalypse has happened, please save me from the Water Mutants... they had their eyes on me since before The Fall

Join us in the Humming Woods for part 1 of "A Warm and Pleasant Hum" which is livestreaming right now! A truly phenomenal 1st half of this creepy and unsettling incursion, originally written by @signalstation.bsky.social. Our cast blow it out the fucking park! www.youtube.com/watch?v=10v8...

"The treasure you seek is sweet as honey. But desire will destroy you in the end." Join us soon, in the Humming Woods, as part 1 of "A Warm and Pleasant Hum" goes live at 7pm GMT A truly phenomenal 1st half of this creepy and unsettling incrusion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=10v8...

TODAY! 7pm GMT Come check out Part 1 of our Trophy Dark incursion if you're free! I'll be hanging out in chat, trying not to cringe at the sound of my own voice. 😂 Seriously though, folks, @vengaboy.bsky.social and @kasaliya.bsky.social are absolute powerhouses, and this was a joy to 🐝 part of!

Now this table has a super charming, easy chemistry that no doubt comes from playing together a lot. But it’s never clique-y and you’re made to feel like an old friend welcome to pull up a chair. Great sound design on top, plus bonus marks for “were we being Raptured?” Rated and reviewed. #APSWAP

Such a great watch! It's beautifully heartbreaking. If you got a little over an hour of time, I do recommend checking out "When I See You" You can find the VOD on Youtube!

@mumblemegs.bsky.social is an absolute jet in this game, as were @kasaliya.bsky.social and @vengaboy.bsky.social who rounded out the table of bonafide guns.

"And that hum doesn't stop, and it never will!" Tomorrow at 7pm GMT, Part 1 of "A Warm and Pleasant Hum" will go live. Surely nothing bad is going to happen to Vero and Cassian, right @mumblemegs.bsky.social ? Check this game, but plus all Who Hurt You? stories at youtube.com/@whohurtyouap

What game systems do you reckon you'll see us turn into sad AP stories in 2026? We've got the majority of the year planned out already, but what do you think is or should be on the roster?

With all this chat of AP critique and review, anyone fancy watching and leaving a review of HUNT(er/ed)? In return I'll watch/listen to an episode of something you send my way and include a review as part of it! (Bonus points if its under 2 hours and is not D&D) www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDfe...

It's exhausting and disheartening that these sentiments are still relevant and necessary, AND YET. We'll never stop yelling about it though.

This past year, we’ve been doing more and more guest episodes/miniseries. It’s never been hard to cast a diverse table. If your excuse is that it’s hard or you don’t know where to start, in the big 2025?? You gotta figure something out

It really is very easy. If you notice that your table lacks diversity, just say it. Do something about it. Recommend people you know or know of. If you can't think of anyone, then the call is kinda coming from inside the house and you should make some better friends.

Look I was raised to say please and thank you.

After every instance of a player describing something utterly unhinged and disturbing, @thebadspot.bsky.social reply is always the same....

DO THE THING, sign up now!

I JUST got to finish this this morning (because unfortunately work pulled me away) and this is GOOD HEAVY SHIT! Taylor and Gina approached this game with the level of vulnerability I think Meghan and I hoped and imagined people would when we were making it, it's beautiful youtu.be/iDfed4-FBl4?...

I'd love your support 💝 "Is This A Dad Thing?" is a short documentary about my journey inducing lactation and breastfeeding. We're in the official selection at Aesthetica Film Festival, and I'm traveling with my daughter to York for the premiere. Please help us get there! ko-fi.com/jacoblefton/

In 2026, we hope to see more actual play groups commit to ensuring that their shows include more and multiple POC performers at their tables. It is not hard, in fact it has never been easier to reach out to and work with some of the most amazing and talented performers you can hope to find.

After watching the amazing AP from @whohurtyouap.bsky.social , I bought the game, grabbed a friend and tonight we´ll play HUNT(er/ed), written by @superdillin.bsky.social & @meghanlynnftw.bsky.social 🏹 I´m excited to (get) hunt(ed) :) #ttrpg meghanlynnftw.itch.io/huntered

Did you miss last night's one-shot of HUNT(er/ed)? You can catch up on the VOD of "When I See You" to watch as Gina and Taylor face off in a game of cat and mouse. Who will make it out alive?

The human world has room for many monarchs, but The Humming Woods has only one Queen. Next week, we release Part 1 of "A Warm and Pleasant Hum", a Trophy Dark incursion. This delightfully creepy game from @gauntletrpg.bsky.social sees @thebadspot.bsky.social take some wretched souls into the woods

I'm the only one who looks like they are having a good time in this picture. Which is how I remember it.

Oooh, this bit destroyed me. I'm definitely hooked up

This is just amazing! Need to watch more. Need to play that game. #ttrpg

If you want a story about womanhood, about mothers and daughters and legacy and grief and shame and growth, then you should watch this (CW for infertility in the AP, not this clip)

This link takes you to the VOD! You should watch it. Trust me.

Y'all. Don't sleep on this AP. Some of the best RP I've ever seen and a heartbreakingly beautiful story. Do yourself a favor and check it out. Thank you so much Taylor and Gina. This Monster and Hunter are going to be living rent free in my head for the foreseeable future.

“Like all things I’ve ever loved, I find it hard to stop.” 👹 Getting to play Hunt(er/ed) via @whohurtyouap.bsky.social with @taylorannnx.bsky.social and @samsighs.bsky.social was an absolute joy and I devoured every second of it.

"When I See You" She is the last of her line, thrust to avenge her slain family. It is her birth claim, her duty, her sole mission. The monster feeds on despair, shame and that which you try so deeply to forget. We are LIVE NOW, let's find out who survives.

With the tables I've cast, the ideas in progress and the actual plays I'm currently editing, I have content for Who Hurt You? almost up to Christmas 2026. Might need to open a pitch form sometime soon...

Oh look, we're on this list a couple of times alongside some of the most incredible AP teams! Surely we can't be working on adding more to this list, right?! 👀

The first weapon, is not a weapon at all. Join us for "When I See You", our HUNT(er/ed) one shot that goes live tonight at 7pm BST. This cat and mouse game is an unforgettable back and forth between hunter and monster, and is so damn good. Watch along at www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDfe...
