Review of Holiday Respite, a TTRPG for reflecting on the adventure’s you’ve already had

I got to try out Holiday Respite as part of the Bear Hugs 2023 charity stream and had a GREAT time playing it with the creator herself! Check out my review here to see how its look-back storytelling helps with reflection and makes for a great holiday game for all ages.

Review of Teatime Adventures!

Teatime Adventures is a cozy TTRPG with exciting stories and wonderful characters to discover and explore with each session. It’s beautifully illustrated, has mechanics that promote collaboration and empathy, celebrates inclusion and wholesome vibes, and even has adventure-related recipes for some delicious baked goods that are just as much a treat as the rest of the book!

Review of Raccoon Sky Pirates!

Raccoon Sky Pirates is a TTRPG full of chaos and trash pandas taking to the skies in search of the wondrous treasures just waiting to be plucked from the suburbs! With creative mechanics that push players to come at a problem with their character’s full personality, it’s great for getting into some creative trouble and having a blast (just hopefully not with the ship actually blasting) at any age.

Review of What’s Popping Fellow Kids, a cringy game about fitting in

What’s Popping Fellow Kids is a TTRPG that puts the kid in the GM seat as the adult, playing a cryptid, tries to fit in at school! It’s a great way to learn about your kid’s day and have some fun giving your child a chance to run the scene!

Review of DanD Made Easy, D&D 5e Trackers and Tools

DanD Made Easy has tons of trackers that help all players, but are especially helpful for introducing new players to the game! I’ve been chatting with Dan, the creator of DanD Made Easy, who provides his trackers and resources to youth TTRPG groups, and I wanted to showcase some of his work that that has helped me in my own games!
