Humans have had animal companions since before we had written language, barely had agroculture, and still thought a good layer of dirt was a good way to stay healthy. Our pets have followed us throughout time, history, culture and art … and yet, despite there being rules in place for them, I have rarely ever […]
When I was of the wee age of seven my step-father took me to a local comic convention in Reading. It wasn’t like what my seven-year-old mind thought and I found myself rather disappointed to see booth after booth after booth of Tri-State comic shops selling old stock and collectables. No Stan Lee, no Neal […]
This morning I received an e-mail from Chris Tang of One Bookshelf (the people who own DrivethruRPG) and to say the least, it is promising. With luck in a few weeks Open D6 (WEG D6) will have its own listing on the platform, allowing creators and fans of the system to more easily find and […]
Emanuel Martinez Lema 2016 Something I have been thinking of a lot lately is the interaction of armor to the wearer in rpgs. I have typically been of the mind that abstractt is better than realistic … with this in mind, AAC and DAC have always been quite fine to me as it was an […]
Sine Nomine Publishing, the folks behind the widely popular Science Fiction RPG, Stars Without Number, have released a new suplement for Stars Without Number that promises to “unleash the power of aranotech” into the Stars Without Number universe. That’s right, Magic in the till now hard Scifi setting. The Codex of the Black Sun is […]
Today is a lot of prep and down time for the family as we usher in the New Year. On the gaming front I am busily working on reformatting my 2-year-old Kindle Fire so that I can use primrarily as means to easily use the multitude of pdf rpgs, adventures, etc. Today also marks Dark […]
My love/hate relationship with World of Darkness and its offshoots is pretty well known. In my early 20s when I first got into gaming (large part thanks to some Airmen in AIT) 3rd edition had just been released and I was all in. Competing against that in my little microcism was White Wolf’s World of […]
The past few years have been very spotty for Genius Loci Games (or GL Games or GLG as I’ve been recently calling it). I have made several planned comebacks to no avail as real life tended to get in the way in one form or another. Recently I have been thinking of giving it another […]
A number of years ago the OSR community managed to convince One Bookshelf, the owners of DrivethruRPG and the soon to be redacted RPGNow, to create a category for OSR games, systems, etc with-in the site, seperating it from the d20 systems category of the time. ON top of this, popular rulesets within the OSR […]
2018 was, for the most part, an extremely quiet year for GLGames, with only a single release (Pyramid of the Lost King Extras – The Howling Dolmen), and blog posting only through April. For the most part I have spent the year finishing up my latest juant into the realms of academica and reconnecting with […]
