Regular Features

The Dragon #1

By Stu Horvath and John McGuire • June 19th, 2023

A genuine piece of RPG history.

Here's the Thing
Rob's black cat Finley, adorably resting his chin on a carpeted cat tower.

The False Myth of the Black Cat

By Rob Rich • June 15th, 2023

While the times have changed, black cats are sometimes still saddled with unfair stigma – and Rob rants about why that’s ridiculous.

Forms in Light
A prime example of Capriccio, the painting depicts an idyllic countryside with several structures displaying different architectural styles.

Fantastic Follies

By Justin Reeve • June 14th, 2023

These wildly impractical structures were made for purely aesthetic purposes, perfectly complementing their pastoral surroundings.

Always Autumn
The sparely-lit stage of a punk show, camera moved during shuttering to create a purple and yellow-blurred portrait of a drum kit, a guitarist, a singer.

Last Night I Went to a House Show

By Autumn Wright • June 13th, 2023

Folded arms, cold gazes, straight couples dressed like they wanna be at a club in Williamsburg, which is to say “Kind of gay, but don’t be mistaken.”

Brain Scratch
A screencap from Mr. Sun's Hatbox, with a two-dimensional library battleground with some ladders on the stacks and a few blobs shooting, climbing, and falling to their painful deaths, as a rubber ducky stares in judgement

Giving Up Ghostwire for Mr. Sun’s Hatbox

By Steven Nguyen Scaife • June 12th, 2023

And although Mr. Sun’s Hatbox has such common, game-y elements as the deified skill tree, the smaller scope allows the game to move through it with a far greater efficiency and satisfaction than other games, where all the aforementioned permadeath and neck-snapping and resource-harvesting might stand out less.

Orcs

By Stu Horvath and John McGuire • June 12th, 2023

Pig-faced orcs are the best orcs…but why exactly do they have pig faces?

Casting Deep Meteo
A grandiose painting of the famous Trojan horse from The Illiad being wheeled through the gates.

Threading the Timeline

By Levi Rubeck • June 9th, 2023

What is myth and legend other than image control, public relations, bending truth into natural blondness (or just that if one’s hair is blond they are a blonde).

Area of Effect
A man in a puffy periwinkle jacket and tall yellow boots peers downwards into a rock pool in front of a pink-hued sunset.

Flooded Memories

By Jay Castello • June 8th, 2023

What traces will our current sea level rise leave in the record? Cities under the water, yes, but what myths emerge from real Atlantises?

I Played It, Like, Twice...
A photo from Orrin featuring a few of the mixed up monsters from Fearsome Floors, with a fancy lad with an eyeball for a head and a top hat on the left, a melty jawn in the middle, and a skinless skull with milky eyes on the right, all pointing at leach other like three spidermen

Fleeing Fast from Freaky Fiends: Finding Fun with Fearsome Floors

By Orrin Grey • June 7th, 2023

Indeed, Fearsome Floors is one of those European imports, hailing from eccentric German game designer Friedemann Friese, whose fixation on the color green and massive use of alliteration of the letter F can sometimes get lost in translation but certainly helps to set his games apart.

Rookie of the Year
The QVC logo in red and black.

The Legend of T2419

By Matt Marrone • June 7th, 2023

We tried every dumb thing you might think of, and more. But none stood the test of time like T2419.
