WaRP Gets Prettified

Blogger Rob Donoghue has taken the WaRP System Reference Document and spiffed it up with a new layout, including both a full-page size and a 5.5 x 8.5 version for tablet readers. Check it out!

As Seen on Tabletop

Wil Wheaton has set up an "As Seen on Tabletop" Tumblr, as he explains on his blog, "for viewers to share your stories and pictures from your game nights, game days, and game shops."  It's fun to read, and I'm especially partial to the pic of the two girls playing Gloom with their dad (who is of course taking the picture).  Our own twins are only about 3 years old, but it reminds me of how much I look forward to playing games like this with them when they are older!

WaRP Submissions Last Chance!

Submissions for our WaRP Open Call are due on Monday, so be sure to mail yours in NOW! To learn more about it, visit the Open Call post.

Murder of Crows + Reprints Arrive Today

Any minute now a truck should be pulling into our warehouse with a long-awaited delivery of card games we printed in India: the new Murder of Crows, plus reprints of Cthulhu 500, Dungeoneer: Haunted Woods of Malthorin and Dungeoneer: Den of the Wererats.  If all goes according to plan, US distributors should be getting these games in their warehouses in turn late next week.

Gloom Goes to the Dreamlands

We're pleased to announce that the next product in the Gloom family is officially on the schedule!  Unpleasant Dreams is a 55-card expansion deck for Cthulhu Gloom, added elements of Lovecraft's Dreamlands to the game.  It will be shipping to distributors in November.

OTE20 Reservation Invoices

I just finished creating all of the invoices in PayPal for all the folks who reserved a copy of Over the Edge 20th Anniversary Edition.  If you reserved a copy, there should be an invoice in your e-mail inbox already -- if not, first check your spam folder, or it's possible that somehow your reservation never made it through.

Once Upon a Time at the Improv

Once Upon a Time co-designer James Wallis just put up a web post talking about how an actor friend of his uses the game for improv prompts in front of a live audience. Read about it now!
