Imagine arming the group’s fighters with some party bags along with instructions to leap out from behind the bush. “Surprise!” It’s the wrong sort of party surprise.

One of the stories in this collection was written by Andrew Girdwood on 15th October 2013 and was described as "As it happens Sword and Sorcery Studio was an imprint of White Wolf that was created to publish d20 and OGL titles. It's perhaps not that much of a surprise that both Onyx Path and Nocturnal Media are interested. The two companies have jointly purchased the rights to the Scarred Lands fantasy setting.".

Monte Cook & Bruce Cordell team up for The Strange RPG Kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] Monte Cook and Bruce Cordell are both professional developers, both have had success on Kickstarter and are long time friends. Amazingly, they’ve never worked on a full RPG together. This Kickstarter for a game they’re working on called The Strange is likely to change that. The Strange makes use of multiple words […]
TradeCraft Bonus: Five impressive dice bags
Etsy is full of gamer geeks making fantastic stuff for other gamer geeks. This is good but not without catch.

Hell No: The sensible horror film
Not coming to a cinema near you. Not confusing you with illogical and daft choices. Not filled with people with the survival skills of an 8-bit Space Invader. Hell No is not a film you need to wait until Halloween to watch. You can watch the spoof trailer right now. Enjoy smart characters and realistic […]
Onyx Path partners with Nocturnal Media to buy Scarred Lands
I rather enjoyed Sword and Sorcery Studio’s d20 setting “Scarred Lands“. It was a grim (ish) world in which gods and titans battled for control and envolved the mortal races they had made. Humans, elves, dwarves and the other “Divine Races” fought against the spawn of the titans. The setting picked up 150 years after […]

Sony shares first official ad for the PlayStation 4
If you had to write a TV ad for the PS4, what would you try? Sony’s madmen ad brains have put together a series of lookie-likey sets and costumes, one of which will likely remind you of a favourite game or genre, and has their actors sing “Perfect Day”. The name of the ad? “Perfect […]
Tianxia: Blood, Silk & Jade for Fate Core rocks Kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] It takes a remarkable video to get attention as an RPG Kickstarter pitch these days. That’s why you should watch Vigliance Press’ video above. Check out the art by Denise Jones.

Zombies, the Getaway and a TV ad
Every now and then a TV ad makes its way to Geek Native. This is for a brand called “DieHard”. It’s not a name I recognise outside the movies but I enjoyed the ad – especially the role of the guy and the role of the gal. It feels appropriately modern too me. Who wants […]
