There’s a preview of a whole fantasy city infested by criminals, of a sprawling wilderness explored by roaming and muscled barbarians and news of a free Halloween superheroes adventure from Green Ronin.

Sit back and listen to curated highlights from Geek Native from the week.

In this episode of Audio EXP, we run through all the goodies Chaosium are giving away to mark the first year of Greg Stafford’s death. There’s a competition to win a year’s worth of free adventures, and we review some of the headlines out of New York Comic Con.

Let’s start with a question. Would you trade your life, as it is now, for a life of alien adventure?

We talk about Fandom buying Cortex, a move that means D&D Beyond’s parent company will want to sell RPGs that are not Dungeons & Dragons. Then we dig into a host of exciting Kickstarter projects, as Evil Hat decide to make a cautious return to the platform after union-busting concerns.

This is a short highlights show in which we look back over a week of stories from the Geek Native blog.

There’s $3,000,000 worth of highlights in this week’s Audio EXP. We talk about the most funded comic books on Kickstarter, about Shadowrun 6, Kings of War and a rare original box set of D&D appearing on eBay.
