Lost stories, found games Italian RPG design & localization lab(yrinth) https://linktr.ee/nessundove

Big fan of this format for Barbabianca (sheaf of sturdy pages that can be passed around, collected in a cardboard wrapper) which was also used for Our Queen Crumbles, and would be perfect for Firebrands-style games with all the minigames.

Another game I just received is "Barbabianca," an Italian storytelling game designed by Cristian Sisto and published by @nessundovelab.bsky.social - a company that is building a great game portfolio! First, find the game here, in English or Italian: nessundove.it/shopping/bar... 1/

A Triangle Agency megagame happened today at Play Bologna!!! They had people playing NPCs from the game's world, tracked the results of missions across all the tables, and sped to a final ending for their setting all in one big group. I wish I was there, I want to see it!!

Screenshot of a discord message. People in red ties overseeing several tables of Triangle Agency play. Chiara says: Multi-table game going on at Play Bologna 2026, run by The Agency (gaming association, name purely coincidental lol). The rules look extremely interesting but I'm only here visiting cause I'm running the sales booth lol. They're tracking Demerits, Commendation, Chaos and Loose-Ends across all tables to determine the overall ending. And have AgencyOS bots going around for players to speak to and hack.

It is now less than 48 hours to the launch of Soledad. Maria is drawing stickers to keep the anxiety at bay. You too can profit off her nerves: this design will be our Early Bird incentive for those who back the game between May 7 and May 9!

After Barbabianca, we're gearing up for another project: The Roots of Soledad, a magical realism #ttrpg by Matthijs Holter. As fans of Archipelago and Society of Dreamers as much as A Hundred Years of Solitude, it's a privilege for us to do our part in developing this game.

the Chinese audience is around the same size as the US one. The Italian and French translations are completely done too, I believe, and they're being sold and marketed by their own teams. (I talk to the Italian team, Nessundove, a lot. they're awesome)

Join us tonight at 3PM EST - 9PM Rome time to hear our translator Chiara chat about Barbabianca with the fine folks at @weirdplace.bsky.social ! Or jump in at 12PM EST - 6PM Rome time to discover dozens of weird, wonderful games in this #ZiMo Showcase. youtube.com/live/sDalXw_...
