I just released Chupacabra on the Loose, a mystery set in Belize for Monster of the Week by @evilhat.bsky.social 🎲 Save the village from this famous (and dangerous) cryptid! Download now for free! 🎉 anaisrmorgan.itch.io/chupacabra-o...

Alright, I'm pretty much out of projects so if anyone needs elves and robots and stuff drawn for their games, please feel free to reach out, I've been told I'm affordable and somewhat competent.

It's 968 AC. An artificial sun shines down upon Doskvol. Autopods cruise down rows of peaceful, prosperous houses. Beneath it all, strange actors and twisted conspiracies work their shadowy agendas. Blades '68. The future is now. Don't miss it: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/e...

Naming things in games can really slow things down. We needed to come up with a lot of names during our playtest of This Means War, so we tried a different approach to take the pressure off. arsludi.lamemage.com/index.php/49...

a response to the @rascal.news article on yazeba's bed & breakfast, clarifying some misunderstandings and (hopefully) providing a clearer explanation of what happened possumcreek.medium.com/a-response-t...

I published my first Solo TTRPG! 🥳 Monster Camper is a solo journaling game. You used to be human but now you're a little bit monstrous. It's becoming a bit of a problem. So, to tame it or become one with it you're going solo camping! legacy.drivethrurpg.com/product/5560... (affiliate link)

In a few weeks, I'll crowdfund the 20th Anniversary Edition of Play Unsafe, my book about improvisation, story and roleplay. Go here and follow the Kickstarter. (And please repost this, it really helps!) www.kickstarter.com/projects/gra... #kickstarter #ttrpg

So i want to write a worldbuilding game about being an ethnographer in a dungeon full of undead. As a way of fleshing out the history of a place and also maybe an extant culture of undead

LGS finally got these in for me. Let the hunt begin! #ttrpg #ttrpgsky #rpg @evilhat.bsky.social @chrishanrahan.bsky.social @michaelsands.bsky.social @deadlyfredly.bsky.social #MonsteroftheWeek #MotW

This makes me very, very happy. I've spent a happy few days reading it, tweaking it and remembering how good it is. Yes it's been that long.

Generic Games new year update may be read over here: genericgames.co.nz/update/2026/...

It is not a golden age because forge/story games ideas have become more successful. It is a golden age because people around the world are making new games, and to them all that stuff is just one more input among many.

This feels like a good time to reshare my history of indie RPGs from 2003-2010. www.patreon.com/collection/2...

My End of Year video is on the "Golden Age of Indie RPGs," from roughly 2010 to 2025. I start with Apocalypse World's release, work through the Google+ Era, and follow design lineages and historical events that have impacted the hobby up through 2025.

And many of those materials are available in Polish for free, too - we have the core rulebook, but not the entire product line. The Polish file, a group effort by four translators and a few helpers, is here: tablefliprpg.itch.io/tumaczenie-r...

The RPG community keeps surprising me in good ways. For example, Jan aka Hal325 keeps expanding the free German translation of all free Monster of the Week stuff, and the file is 399 pages long by now O_O drive.google.com/file/d/1ccZ9...

Monsters are real. You hunt them. 😎 Monster of the Week is an action-horror TTRPG by @evilhat.bsky.social about investigating supernatural threats. Claim the FREE Starter Mystery and get ready-to-play hunters, Mystery pages, tokens, and quickstart rules! Start your hunt 👉 buff.ly/WimPTxq

Roleplaying games I played in 2025. * Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast * Deathmatch Island * Glorious (playtest) * Xenogate Expedition 13 (playtest) * The Zone * The Great Soul Train Robbery * DIE * Mythic Bastionland * Blade Runner * Stewpot * Monster of the Week * Kill Your Grandad (part 1)

Today I received the coolest TTRPG package ever - Physical copies of my very own game, Fight or Fright! Seeing my game in physical copy was an indescribable feeling. Thanks to the team at @plusoneexp.bsky.social for making this kid's dream a reality! Go join the RPG Zine Club!

Monster of the Week Christmas one-shot actual play! 🎄 We're just regular suburban people who do regular Christmas things during regular holidays... Join us for the live stream this Sunday 14th from 5pm EST / 2pm PST (Monday 15th: 11am NZDT) on twitch.tv/seroRPG

2025 marks our 20th year in business! In that time we've made a ton of games -- this isn't all of them by a long shot! We're deeply grateful to all the fans who've supported us. To celebrate, save 20% off every single thing in our webstore, now through December 12th. evilhat.com/roleplaying-...

Last day to pick these up on sale!

After a pause, we are once again accepting pitches for games. If you've designed a TTRPG (especially one built on PbtA, Forged in the Dark, or Fate) that's near-complete, you can find details about how to pitch us (and the services we provide) here: evilhat.com/game-submiss...

More charity streams coming at ya! Tomorrow Memester will be streaming Dredge on Twitch.

Let's get an indie ttrpg HYPE TRAIN going and recommend some cool games for people to buy/gift. If you're a small #ttrpg creator (or there's an indie game you really love) drop a quick pitch and a link below. 🚅🎲🎲🎲🌟🌟

Blades '68! It's all go! Here are some chapter openers I've been working on.

It's the perfect time to get the Monster of the Week books. Don't forget the Codex of Worlds: Apocrypha, it includes a mystery I wrote! The Dreaming Army marches inevitably forward, their ranks swelling each night. Stop them before they engulf the Soaring City of Hermessia!
