D&D TTRPG news and articles
Dungeons & Dragons is more than a game; it's a cultural titan and the gateway to fantasy adventure for millions worldwide. At its heart, D&D is a collaborative storytelling experience. Players create unique heroes, from mighty barbarians to wise wizards, and embark on perilous quests in a world brought to life by the Dungeon Master. The rules provide structure, but the real magic comes from the shared imagination of the group. Every roll of the dice and every player decision shapes a unique narrative, making each campaign a truly personal epic forged in creativity and chance.
The game’s enduring appeal lies in its powerful social core. In an age of digital screens, D&D brings people together to cooperate, solve problems, and build legends face to face. This spirit has fuelled its explosive resurgence in pop culture, introducing the magic of tabletop roleplaying games to a new generation. Yet for all its grand legacy, D&D remains wonderfully accessible. All it takes is a set of dice, a few friends, and a spark of imagination to unlock infinite worlds of adventure. It is the ultimate engine for heroic storytelling.

Thanks to the good […]
Index to Sharn, City of Towers
This index was submitted to GameWyrd by the writer Jason Tondro (aka 7th son). The original had a very flaky JavaScript search function written by yours truly. To search the index today; I recommend Ctrl+F. Name: Last name is given first, even in the case of cultures which list a family name first and given […]
Wizards and Star Wars part company; a deeper look
One of the big announcements this week was that Wizards of the Coat would no longer be producing the Star Wars Miniatures and RPG. The news, often rumoured, was made official via the Wizards’ forums by moderator and employee WotC_BigGuy. First off, let me slip my marketing hat on and say that using the forums […]
Americans ban D&D because it is dangerous – applies to prisons
This is a story I wish I’d written about when it first pinged by radar because it has gone and become super popular now. In essence; United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit rejected the claims a prisoner made that he should be allowed to play D&D. It’s worth noting these are the […]

Mondo Comico in the press and on the web
Kudos to Mondo Comico. The Nottingham gaming and comic shop made the news today with a feature in This Is Nottingham. Rather than endure the standard press poking fun at roleplaying and the Simpson’s fed ‘Comic Guy’ stereotype Mondo Comico walked away from the encounter smelling of roses. The hero of our story is David […]
