RPG Publisher Spotlight

Once a month, Geek Native profiles an RPG developer, publisher, or creator. Please take a moment to review them and discover this growing collection of indie TTRPG interviews.

Currently in the Spotlight

GearGames

  • Christian Allaire
  • Wild Magic Surge
  • d20play

  • No Plot, Only Lore

To cast your vote, visit this patrons-only page.

RPG Publisher Spotlight

It can be challenging for these companies to generate media coverage and shares on social platforms and spread the word about their excellent games and supplements. The RPG Publisher Spotlight is an attempt to counter this.

There is a vote each month. To vote, you must be at least a Geek Citizen ($1) on Geek Native’s Patreon. The shortlist is drawn from suggestions made by Patreons or compiled from publishers who have recently been active on sites like Itch.io and DriveThruRPG.
