Ooh

Another good reason to sub to the RRD newsletter is for dumb shit like this:

something from the archives, the time @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social let me make a strange map for THE SPIRE and I went ott making and designing loads of different little views of it. There were loads more but I couldn't fit anymore on the page :-D Here is the Solar Basilica #ttrpg

Can you BELIEVE it's only 👀5 DAYS👀 until Children of Time: The RPG?? (Also is there a pangolin pokemon because I love the little pangolin warrior so much) Follow the campaign here🫵 bit.ly/3R1XMUu

Did you know we have a monthly (ish) newsletter? (Me and Grant are unsupervised in there) mailchi.mp/48d68906171f...

Probably the thing with the bears.

🥶 WHO'S IN THAT CRYOPOD?📣 (It's not pikachu) It's a character straight from the Children of Time Quickstart! The campaign launches on 14th July - have you signed up? bit.ly/4okQtDw

Pyrkon is fast becoming one of my fav conventions. I’d encourage more UK/EU TTRPG folk to attend! Especially if DEEP continues next year. (It’s rare to get the chance to properly talk shop about nuanced design/production topics.)

NEW: Royal Blood is a tabletop roleplaying game about heists, tarot cards, magic, fate and desperation. It uses a deck of tarot cards to build characters, plan a heist, and determine opposition, and to resolve every risky action the players make. From @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social

Fun fact: the @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social website has a d20 on the main page that you can roll. I went to the site looking to buy a pdf of Eat The Reich but I think I got distracted rolling it like ten times LOL

I took a look today at the Children of Time RPG quickstart and holy crap is it intelligently designed, beautifully rendered, and very clever. It’s not a traditional RPG, but I think it would be a really fun storytelling experience with the right group. rowanrookanddecard.com/announcing-c...

It's FREE👏SHIT👏FRIDAY👏 2nd heatwave? Sounds like 👿No More Room In Hell👿 This GMless game pits you against an ever replenishing enemy (think Vampire Survivors) and asks you to pilot the forces of Hate, Fear, Hunger and Love to survive. Get it here: rowanrookanddecard.com/product/no-m...

If you want to pick up Voidheart Symphony – and *you should* – I recommend the Quickstart: rowanrookanddecard.com/product/kill...

Oh, wow – glad to see all my hard work recognized! Thanks for the nomination, @ennie-awards.bsky.social

I came for the silly photo, I stayed for the multi-POV retrospect. Never heard of Pyrkon before, it sounds really cool!

Ooh what's behind this curtain? Something luxurious? dangerous?? 😏 No. It's us. secrets.rowanrookanddecard.com/what-we-did-...

Ugh these are so gorgeous 👇

Back in the Children of Time RPG mines (launching in less than two weeks!) www.backerkit.com/call_to_acti... I'm happy with its ability to deliver big sci-fi stories spanning planets and millennia. But it needs more on the human (or rather, Human) angle. So I'm finding inspiration in: Deep Space 9

Happy #FreeRPGDay! QUICK QUICK GET THIS FREE STUFF BEFORE SOMEONE SEES STEAL EVERY QUICKSTART THAT ISNT BOLTED DOWN 🧵

teenage jude, who loved Hackers unironically, is DELIGHTED with this game and can't wait to force people to play it

It's FREE👏SHIT👏FRIDAY👏 It's too hot outside, play 🧑‍💻Hack The Planet🌏 inside instead. You're hackers, like from the film HACKERS (2016), which had the tagline "Boot up or Shut up!" 🤘 Get it here: rowanrookanddecard.com/product/hack...

We also did a nice video recap of what The Wretch got up to www.instagram.com/reel/DZ-tRO_...

This was my second year at Pyrkon and I legit had a stupid amount of fun looking out for the watchers hidden all over the city. It's like a city-wide easter egg hunt.

🚨PYRKON THREAD🚨 We went to Poznań which is most famous for: 🔸two mechanical goats in a clock that headbutt each other 🐐 🔸croissant museum 🥐 🔸a guy they call ‘the watcher’ who Elaine spotted all over 👁️ 🔸and #Pyrkon! 🎲

maybe it's the heat exhaustion but I decided to create a helpful guide

Still too hot? The only thing for it is the FREEZING void of deep space. Fly with EUphoria staff and special guest @elainelithgow.bsky.social for a playtest of @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social's Children of Time TTRPG! Things definitely stayed cool and nothing caught fire. Honest. buff.ly/kahsgfv

Obviously I would say this, but: this is a cracking speculative fiction game, and a cracking *GMless* game, and a cracking adaptation. And it's got pangolins in it. Take a look!

Microscope. In Space. And that's not even the half of it 😏

Finally entering my cryptid era where I l can be spotted lurking in the top left of TTRPG industry group photos.

It's FREE👏SHIT👏FRIDAY👏 Check out 🚘The Rapid and the Righteous💨 You are a smooth operator – a special agent in a world of street-racing and criminal investigation. FAMILY. Get it here: rowanrookanddecard.com/product/the-...

Our day at the Design Experience Exchange Pyrkon has made us realise there's a game missing from our catalog: SMACK HAGS: A Witch Heroin Wrestling Game

We've had enough. The weather is all over the place. We're going to Poland. ...for Pyrkon pyrkon.pl/en/

Everything costs in this capitalist hellscape! Fuck That! One free game every friday until we bring back the guillotine💕 bsky.app/profile/rowa...

It's FREE👏SHIT👏FRIDAY👏 Check out Adventure Skeletons! It's a lovely day to be a little skeleton, but oh bother bits of you keep falling off! Have a charming little adventure anyway. Get it here: bit.ly/4xpETek

Hey, you like free shit right? it's friday, and I think you maybe deserve some free shit?

When they kill a goblin, have one of his mates yell "Oh shit, they killed Nobbit! Nobbit's fucking dead!" That's always fun.

Working my way through the playtest rules of @rowanrookanddecard.bsky.social Children of Time. Not only does this look like it's really nailing the vibes of the books, it is also giving me major Microscope vibes and that's one of my favorite games ever. I am SO NORMAL about this game y'all.

UKGE is well over so I can FINALLY tell you what really happened... First! 📚The Haul🎒 from our very own tastemakers (including Maz's from the paper fair that they were incredibly excited about)

Top quality book freak

Huge thanks to @fistfulofcrits.bsky.social for sorting out these signs. Turned out to be a great way to identify the prompt-juggling chuds who use the stuff, as they opted not to display them when offered
