Feels pretty great after collecting physical games for 30 years and being part of the community pushing for change for almost half of that to be able to deliver on some unabated ambition via @lostincult.co.uk Thanks @bigmode.bsky.social @animalwell.bsky.social for trusting us with such a gem.

We went so wrong,

When my last publisher went bust I thought this book was destined to be out of print forever, but infinite thanks to the folks at Lost in Cult for bringing it back to life. New chapters! New insights! New full colour illustrations! Lavish production values! Beautiful typesetting!
