Hii I'm Thorn! I make art sometimes :D You might recognize my work with @anxiousmimicrpgs.bsky.social on Girl Frame and A Most Bloody Devotion.
It's been such a privilege to write for Rascal, to write for you, and it would be really nice if I could do it next year as well. If you can sign up, please do. I would do so much better, the work world be so much better, if the site wasn't precious.

I really enjoyed this episode for a few reasons. Most of all, I love how Barclay and Bee (1) read / discuss specific endnotes and (2) puzzle out the plot together. Playing solo games. Reading. These are social activities. It's what I dreamed of: multiple playthroughs, discussing with friends. ❤️

"The idea that this monstrous many headed being feeding off the dancer’s energy (and agony) really hits here." Very thorough review of Ennie-nominated Pirouette, which mashes up the Jenga mechanics of Dread by @epidiah.bsky.social and Wretched & Alone by @loottheroom.bsky.social. Tomorrow: Koriko!

It was a craziest 4 days in gaming this year at GenCon 2026! We loved seeing you all there. The IGDN booth had 105 unique titles representing 43 different indie publishers. And then there was a tornado warning and it started to rain... inside. #TTRPGCommunity #GenCon #IndieGames

Nine Space Games is in our warehouse! It looks great. Here's The Arrangements, maybe my favorite, shamelessly stolen from Handel's 1739 opera "Berenice". But in space! I really love this format - play it in an hour, cut straight to the big feels and agonizing decisions.
Oh cool @thegrouchcouch.bsky.social covered a whole bunch of games including The Bonsai Diary recently: youtu.be/GZMxdNmmZn4 Unfortunately the bundle deal is over, but you can still find links to the ENNIE-nominated games Mr. Couch reviewed.

During yesterday's Gen Con Tornado the roof above our booth sprung a small leak, but fortunately no harm was done. #RuneQuest was inducted into the ENNIES Hall of Fame at the Awards Ceremony the night before, so we'll just say this was the great Storm God Orlanth showing his approval.
