I’ve been playing Google’s alternative reality location game Ingress for about two months and I’m thoroughly enjoying it. You have to get up off your seat and walk around the city. The game uses your location to determine whether you’re near a point of interest, a portal in the game or a work of art […]

Star Wars: The Force Awakens latest trailer
This is it. The second official Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer shows us new characters, old landscapes… and some of our favourites from the originals. There’s history and change all wrapped into a single Force bundle! There’s R2-D2 and BB8 as well; I wonder if they meet? What do you make of it?
When adventures are too big
Ever played through a dungeon that just went on, on and on? Every now and then some publisher pops up with a popular mega dungeon that seems able to gobble up all your time. Stephen Joy of From The Whiteboard.com knows about such adventures!
Slavic and Mediterranean folklore: Awaken RPG
Fed up of “traditional” folklore being a heavy influence in your RPGs? You know; northern European dwarves, elves and trolls with occasional influence from Norse and Egyptian legends? Maybe this Kickstarter for Awaken, which is a dark fantasy RPG influenced by Slavic and Mediterranean folklore will interest you. You can read more about it on […]

Competition: Kick-Ass 3

Who’s afraid of the dark? A review of Dark Star
Dark Star by Oliver Langmead is an original sci-fi. The whole book is written in a verse like format. I thought this would be annoying, especially as I used my Kindle app on my Nexus 7 to read my copy, but I was wrong. As it happens, the verse-like formatting of Dark Star is easy […]
Poster: Mother is Watching
Mother is Watching is a poster design by Tom Wiener. The piece is part of Light Grey Art Lab’s #BOSSRUSH show. The goal? To celebrate the role baddies have in computer games. This mother, Mother Brain, is straight out of Super Metroid. If you like what you see you can pop over to Light Grey […]
Seed & Spark: Basic Adventuring 101
The good thing about good ideas is that they’re persistent. Last May I wrote about the LARP series Basic Adventuring 101, reckoned it was worth a shout and backed it on Kickstarter. The team raised nearly $17,000 which is a heck of a lot of funds for a webseries but fell short of their $25,000. […]
