It’s a bit of a weird tradition but Christmas in July is a DriveThruRPG tradition in which you can score up to 25% off titles. This year there’s nearly 20,000 titles in the range.

Necromancer Games, though, is back from a torpor to produce D&D 5e books and have raised nearly all […]

Frog God Games’ The Lost Lands: Sword of Air is booming

October 23, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s odd to see a Kickstarter without a video pitch these days – especially for one asking for $75,000. Frog God Games have raised more than they need, though, as I write there’s more than $77,000 in the bank, with 23 days on the clock and nearly 350 backers. You can back the campaign here […]

An introduction to Indie+

Hangouts, if you’re not familiar with them, are super easy to use video chats that support many people at once. They represent a virtual table as much as […]
