@ChaskaTheMagicDog My favorite horror TTRPGs:

Trophy Dark (Jesse Ross)
Bluebeard's Bride (W. Beltrán, S. Doom & M. Kelley)
Public Access (Jason Cordova)
Quietus (Oli Jeffrey)
Mothership (Tuesday Knight Games)
Cthulhu Dark (Graeme Walmsley)

The only RPG I've run that has legitimately scared my players was *Bluebeard's Bride*. It's one fantastic game, but it deals specifically with sensitive subjects.

I played in an AMAZING game of "The Between" earlier today at monthly Community Play Day.

The Between is a narrative-focused by Jason Cordova about a group of mysterious monster-hunters in Victorian London. Published by .

My character was "Wild" Rose Larabee [The American], a pistol-packing, monster-hunting cowgirl from Wyoming with a mysterious past and a strange curse.

It was a fantastic game!

10. Have you played a journaling game?

Sort of. It was "Finding Carcosa" by David Morrison, published in issue 41 "Yellow 2" by .

I sat down and did exactly one prompt, and never went back. Not because it's a bad game: journaling games just aren't for me.

If I'm going to do solo RPG stuff, I'd rather do game prep for a game I'm running for others, or just do straight-up game design.

I ran a very fun first session of last night on the calendar. Our investigators are employees of an antique shop in Providence who specialize in acquiring hard-to-find objects. They've been hired by a librarian at Cornell University to track down a very valuable book stolen from the collection.

He failed to show for the meeting, and they found, his hotel room ransacked with signs of a struggle, and he'd registered under a false name. What does the key they found open?
